Which of the following equations has correct formulas and also is a balanced equation?
1 answer:
Answer : The correct option is, (B)
Explanation :
Balance equation : Balanced equation are those equation in which the number of atoms of each element and the total charge must be same on products side and reactants side.
In the given options, only option (B) equation has correct formula and also a balanced equation.
while the other options has incorrect formulas and also an unbalanced equations.
The correct equation for option A is,
The correct equation for option C is,
The correct equation for option D is,
Hence, the correct answer is, (B)

Answer:
- The molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0219 M
Explanation:
<u>1) Chemical reaction.</u>
a) Kind of reaction: neutralization
b) General form: acid + base → salt + water
c) Word equation:
- sodium hydroxide + oxalic acid → sodium oxalate + water
d) Chemical equation:
- NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + H₂O
b) Balanced chemical equation:
- 2NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O
<u>2) Mole ratio</u>
- 2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄ :1 mol Na₂C₂O₄ : 2 mol H₂O
<u>3) Starting amount of oxalic acid</u>
- mass = 28 mg = 0.028 g
- molar mass = 90.03 g/mol
- Convert mass in grams to number of moles, n:
n = mass in grams / molar mass = 0.028 g / 90.03 g/mol = 0.000311 mol
<u>4) Titration</u>
- Volume of base: 28.4 mL = 0.0248 liter
- Concentration of base: x (unknwon)
- Number of moles of acid: 2.52 mol (calculated above)
- Proportion using the theoretical mole ratio (2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄)
That means that there are 0.000622 moles of NaOH (solute)
<u>5) Molarity of NaOH solution</u>
- M = n / V (liter) = 0.000622 mol / 0.0284 liter = 0.0219 M
That is the correct number using <em>three signficant figures</em>, such as the starting data are reported.
