Answer: (A) H_{3}O^{+}(aq) + HPO^{2-}_{4}(aq) \rightarrow H_{2}PO^{2-}_{4}(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

(B) H_{2}PO^{-}_{4}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq) \rightarrow HPO^{2-}_{4}(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

Explanation:

(A) As we know that HCl is a strong acid and when it is added to an aqueous solution then it leads to increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions. And, when an acid or base is added to a solution then any resistance by the solution in changing the pH of the solution is known as a buffer.

This means that addition of buffer into the given solution will not cause much change in the concentration of H_{3}O^{+} in large amount.

As both the buffer components are salt then they will remain dissociated as follows.

       Na_{2}HPO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow 2Na^{+}(aq) + HPO^{2-}_{4}(aq)

 NaH_{2}PO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow Na^{+}(aq) + H_{2}PO^{-}_{4}(aq)

Hence, net ionic equation will be as follows.

       H_{3}O^{+}(aq) + HPO^{2-}_{4}(aq) \rightarrow H_{2}PO^{2-}_{4}(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

(B)  When we add small amount of sodium hydroxide into the solution then there will occur an increase in concentration of hydroxide ions into the solution. But then due to the presence of buffer there will occur not much change in concentration and the acid will get converted into salt.

     NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na^{+}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq)

The net ionic equation is as follows.

        H_{2}PO^{-}_{4}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq) \rightarrow HPO^{2-}_{4}(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

Lead (ll) nitride+ammonium sulfate > lead(ll) sulfate + ammonium nitride
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Pb_3N_2 + 3 (NH_4)_2SO_4\rightarrow 3 PbSO_4 + 2 (NH_4)_3N

Explanation:

Let's rewrite the given word equation in its chemical balanced equation representation:

1. Lead(II) nitride is represented by lead, Pb, in an oxidation state of 2+, while nitride is a typical nitrogen anion with a state 3-. As a result, the lowest common multiple between 2 and 3 is 6, meaning 2 lead cations are needed to balance 3 nitrogen anions: Pb_3N_2.

2. Ammonium sulfate consists of an ammonium cation with a 1+ charge and sulfate anion with a 2- charge, two ammonium cations needed: (NH_4)_2SO_4.

3. Lead(II) sulfate would have one lead cation and one sulfate anion, as they have the same magnitude of charges with opposite signs: PbSO_4.

4. Ammonium nitride would require three amonium cations to balance the nitride anion: (NH_4)_3N.

Let's write the balanced equation:

Pb_3N_2 + 3 (NH_4)_2SO_4\rightarrow 3 PbSO_4 + 2 (NH_4)_3N

An unknown compound is found to have a molar mass of 392.16 g/mol. If the empirical formula is C2H5PF2, what is the molecular fo
notsponge [240]

Answer:

C8H20P4F8

Explanation:

Molecular formula is based off a ratio of the molecular formula's molar mass divided by the empirical formula's molar mass.

The molar mass of the empirical formula C2H5PF2 is 98.02g. We find this by adding the molar masses of all elements in the formula, multiplied by their subscripts.

2(12.01) + 5(1.01) + 30.97 + 2(18.99) = 98.02

We then divide the molecular molar mass by the empirical molar mass.

392.16/98.02 = 4

This tells us that the molecular formula has 4 times the mass of the empirical formula. Because mass comes from the elements in the formula, we multiply all the subscripts by 4 to get the molecular formula.

2x4 = 8

5x4 = 20

1x4 = 4

2x4 = 8

So the molecular formula is C8H20P4F8
