Answer:

9.28

Explanation:

pOH refers to a measure of hydroxide ions concentration. pOH tells about the alkalinity of a solution. If pOH is less than 7 then aqueous solutions are alkaline, acidic if pOH is greater than 7 and neutral if pOH is equal to 7.

Concentration of the hydroxide ions = 1.9 x 10-5 M

pH = $-log(1.9\times 10^{-5})=4.72$

pOH = 14 - pH

=14 - 4.72 = 9.28

Answer:

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

The heat of combustion of octane = 1.308*10³ kcal/mol

Mass of octane = 463 grams

Molar mass octane = 114.23 g/mol

Molar mass ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles octane

Moles octane = mass octane / molar mass octane

Moles octane = 463 grams / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 4.05 moles

Step 3: Calculate energy of combustion of 4.05 moles octane

Combustion of 1 mol octane gives us: 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol

Combustion of 4.05 moles octane gives us 4.05 * 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol = 5.30 * 10³ kcal

This means the combustion reaction of 463 grams of octane gives us 5.30 * 10³ kcal

Step 4:

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

OR in words: combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal energy

Moles ethanol = 463 grams / 46.07 g/mol

Moles ethanol = 10.05 moles

Since combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal

10.05 moles ethanol will give us = 10.05 * 326.7 = 3283.3 kcal = 3.28 * 10³ kcal

5.30 * 10³ kcal > 3.28 * 10³ kcal

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

Salt is dissolved in a flask of tap water. Distilling the mixture causes the salt to separate from the water. Which type of ener

Alik [6]

Heat energy is required.
In distillation, the solution is first heated, where heat energy is required, such as using a bunsen burner.
When the solution is heated, the water may reach its boiling point and evaporate. However, salt does not. When water molecules evaporates, it travels through a condenser that cools it down into liquid again. Therefore we get pure water. Salt is also obtained in the original beaker.
Therefore to first start this process, heat energy is required.
