Consider the acid spill. It is already starting to do nasty things to, say, the floor or counter. So you grab the bottle of 10% NaOH and pour some on the spill. All of a sudden, you get a great deal of heat, and you don't have any visual evidence whether your put on too little or too much. But you have added more liquid to the spill, generated more heat, and will get more damage. You have made a bigger mess, and if you added too much, you then have a neutralization problem to deal with.
And if it is something like a strong sulfuric acid solution, adding sodium hydroxide solution will be extremely exothermic, and you could get some really nasty results.
So now approach the spill with a handful of baking soda. You sprinkle it on the spill. It fizzes, and carbon dioxide is given off. That actually, in a very tiny way, moderates the temperature of the neutralization. And you can keep adding baking soda until the fizzing stops, and then perhaps some water to mix everything well. But what you have done is kept the volume to a minimum, added a neutralization agent that has a visible endpoint (no more gas being given off), and you don't suddenly have a huge amount of highly basic solution because you added too much.
And what is also nice about baking soda is that you can toss some with your hand or even with a spoon, and get some distance from the spill. With a liquid, you have to get much closer

Answer:
i) 0,7 molH20/s
ii)11,2 g O/s
iii)1,4 g H/s
Explanation:
i) To find the molar flow rate of water, we just convert the mass of water to moles of water using its molecular weight(g/mol) and changing to the proper units (lb to grames and hours to seconds):
ii) Now we just consider the oxygen in the water stream (for 1 mole of water there is 1 mole of oxygen):
iii)Just considering the hydrogen in the stream (for 1 mole of water there is 2 moles of hydrogen):
Answer: a.KOH
Potassium hydroxide is an ionic compound where the K+ is the cation and OH−is the anion. At the same time, the compound also contains a covalent bond since the anion, OH−is formed from electron sharing between the O and H atoms.
Hope this helps........ Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas! :D
Explanation:
Answer:
300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa
Explanation:
Since the problem involves only two parameters of volume and pressure, the formula for Boyle's law is suitably used.
Using Boyle's law
P1V1 = P2V2
P1 is the initial pressure = 1.5×10^5Pa
V1 is the initial volume = 0.08m3
P2 is the final pressure (required)
V2 is the final volume = 0.04 m3
From the formula, P2 = P1V1/V2
P2 = 1.5×10^5 × 0.08 ÷ 0.04
= 300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa.
