Remember the acronym "Oil Rig". Oxidation is loss, Reduction is gain of electrons. Calcium is losing electrons so it's an oxidation reaction.
Answer is: 0,0095 mol of hydrogen gas will be produced in reaction.
Chemical reaction: Ca + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂.
m(Ca) = 0,38 g.
n(H₂) = ?
n(Ca) = m(Ca) ÷ M(Ca).
n(Ca) = 0,38 g ÷ 40 g/mol
n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
from reaction: n(Ca) : n(H₂) = 1 : 1.
n(H₂) = n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
n - amount of substance.
Answer:
11.31g NaClO₂
Explanation:
<em> Is given 250mL of a 1.60M chlorous acid HClO2 solution. Ka is 1.110x10⁻². What mass of NaClO₂ should the student dissolve in the HClO2 solution to turn it into a buffer with pH =1.45? </em>
It is possible to answer this question using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
<em>Where pKa is -log Ka = 1.9547; [A⁻] is the concentration of the conjugate base (NaClO₂), [HA] the concentration of the weak acid</em>
You can change the concentration of the substance if you write the moles of the substances:
[Moles HClO₂] = 250mL = 0.25L×(1.60mol /L) = <em>0.40 moles HClO₂</em>
Replacing in H-H expression, as the pH you want is 1.45:
1.45 = 1.9547 + log₁₀ [Moles NaClO₂] / [0.40 moles HClO₂]
-0.5047 = log₁₀ [Moles NaClO₂] / [0.40 moles HClO₂]
<em>0.3128 = </em>[Moles NaClO₂] / [0.40 moles HClO₂]
0.1251 = Moles NaClO₂
As molar mass of NaClO₂ is 90.44g/mol, mass of 0.1251 moles of NaClO₂ is:
0.1251 moles NaClO₂ ₓ (90.44g / mol) =
<h3>11.31g NaClO₂</h3>
2.26%, 26.8%, 2 2/5, 2.62, 271%
Hope this helps! :D
