The equilibrium for the indicator methyl orange is HC14H14SO3(red) + H2O C14H14SO3−(yellow) + H3O+ The reaction is exothermic.
1 answer:
Answer:
The solution will turn red.
Explanation:
HC₁₄H₁₄SO₃ + H₂O ⇌ HC₁₄H₁₄SO₃⁻ +H₃O⁺
(red) (yellow)
Methyl orange is a weak acid in which the ionized and unionized forms are distinct colours and are in equilibrium with each other,
At about pH 3.4, the two the forms are present in equal amounts, and the indicator colour is orange.
If you add more acid, you are disturbing the equilibrium.
According to Le Châtelier's Principle, when you apply a stress to a system at equilibrium, it will respond in such a way as to relieve the stress.
The system will try to get rid of the added acid, so the position of equilibrium will move to the left.
More of the unionized molecules will form, so the solution will turn red.

The molecular formula for compound is mass of compound is 0.670 g.
To calculate number of atoms first calculate number of moles in the compound as follows:
Molar mass of is 283.886 g/mol, thus,
Thus, number of mole of is 0.00236 mol.
From the molecular formula 1 mole of has 2 mol of P (phosphorus) and 5 mol of O (oxygen).
Thus, number of moles of P and O in 0.00236 mol of will be:
Similarly,
Now, in 1 mol of an element there are atoms.
Number of atoms of P will be:
Similarly, number of atoms of O will be:
Total number of atoms will be sum of number of atoms of P and O:
Therefore, total number of atoms in will be
