Answer:

0.66 moles of NaClO were originally added

Explanation:

When NaClO is added to water, the equilibrium that occurs is:

NaClO(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ HClO(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Where Kb is:

Kb = [HClO] [OH⁻] / [NaClO]

You can obtain Kb from Ka, thus:

Kb = Kw / Ka = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 3.0x10⁻⁷

Kb = 3.33x10⁻⁸

As pH = 10.50;

pOH = 14 - 10.50 = 3.50

[OH⁻] = 10^{-3.50}

[OH⁻] = 3.16x10⁻⁴M

As OH⁻ and HClO comes from the same equilibrium, [OH⁻] = [HClO]

Replacing in Kb expression:

Kb = [HClO] [OH⁻] / [NaClO]

3.33x10⁻⁸ = [3.16x10⁻⁴] [3.16x10⁻⁴] / [NaClO]

[NaClO] = 0.333M

As there are 2.0L of NaClO solution, moles added were:

2.0L * (0.33moles / L) =

<h3>0.66 moles of NaClO were originally added</h3>

Most of the sulfur used in the United States is chemically synthesized from hydrogen sulfide gas recovered from natural gas well
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The rate at which sulfur dioxide is being produced is 0.90 kg/s.

Explanation:

Volume of oxygen gas consumed in second ,V= 994 L

Pressure of the gas = p

Temperature of the gas = T = 170°C= 170 + 273 K=443 K

Moles of oxygen gas consumed in a second = n

PV=nRT ( ideapl gas equation)

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.77 atm\times 994 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 443 K}

n = 21.044 mole

Moles of dioxygen gas consumed per second = 21.044 mol

2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)   (Claus process)

According to reaction, 3 moles of dioxygen gives 2 moles of sulfur dioxide gas.Then 21.044 moles of dioxygen will give;

\frac{2}{3}\times 21.044 ol=14.029 mol of sulfur dioxide

Mass of 14.029 moles of sulfur dioxide gas;

14.029 mol × 64 g/mol = 897.86 g

897.86 g = 0.89786 kg ≈ 0.90 kg

Mass of sulfur dioxide produced per second = 0.90 kg

The rate at which sulfur dioxide is being produced is 0.90 kg/s.

3. Where are the metals and nonmetals located on the periodic table? What are some
xxTIMURxx [149]

Metals are located on the left of the periodic table, and nonmetals are located on the upper right.

Explanation: Metals: Lustrous (shiny)

Good conductors of heat and electricity.

High melting point.

High density (heavy for their size)

Malleable (can be hammered)

Ductile (can be drawn into wires)

Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)

Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)

Nonmetals: High ionization energies.

High electronegativities.

Poor thermal conductors.

Poor electrical conductors.

Brittle solids—not malleable or ductile.

Little or no metallic luster.

Gain electrons easily.

Dull, not metallic-shiny, although they may be colorful

How many grams of water are produced from the reaction of 40.3 g of oxygen according to this equation? 2h2(g) + o2(g) → 2h2o(g)?
Vikki [24]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2H₂ + O₂ --> 2H₂O
stoichiometry of  O₂ to H₂O is 1:2
number of O₂ moles reacted - 40.3 g / 32 g/mol = 1.26 mol
according to molar ratio 
number of water moles produced = 2 x number of O₂ moles reacted 
number of water moles formed - 1.26 x 2 = 2.52 mol
mass of water produced = 2.52 mol x 18 g/mol = 45.4 g
45.4 g of water produced
