How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 53.2 grams of hydrogen gas in the

single-replacement reaction below? Show all steps of your calculation as well as the final answer.
Na + H2O → NaOH + H2

My answer:
1. Balance the equation: 2Na + 2H2O --> 2NaOH + H2
2. Take the known amount of 54.2 g H2 and convert it into moles, multiply by the mole ratio (number of moles from the balanced equation, unknown substance over the given substance) and convert it back into grams:
53.2 g H2 x 1 mol H2/ 2 g H2 x 2 moles Na/ 1 mol H2 x 22.98 g/ 1 mol Na = 1222 g Na
1 gram = 1 mL,
so 1222 mL of Na

The balanced chemical reaction is:

</span><span>
We first use the amount of hydrogen gas to be produced and the molar mass of the hydrogen gas to determine the amount in moles to be produced. Then, we use the relation from the reaction to relate H2 to Na.

53.2 g H2 ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) ( 2 mol Na / 1 mol H2 ) ( 22.99 g / 1 mol ) = 1210.96 g Na

1210.96 g Na ( 1 mL / 0.97 g ) = 1248.41 mL Na needed</span>

Since acids have 1 more proton (H+ - ions) than base, and the acid gives it away, doesn't that mean that they switch roles? Acid
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

In an acid-base equilibrium, acid becomes a conjugate base and base becomes a conjugate acid.

Explanation:

Let's remember the Bronsted-Lowry theory to answer this specific question. According to the theory, acid is a proton donor, while a base is a proton acceptor.

Consider an acid in a form HA (aq) and base in a form of B (aq). Since acid is a proton donor, it will donate its hydrogen ion to the base, B. The resultant products would be A^{-} (aq) and BH^{+} (aq).

Remember that an acid-base reaction is an equilibrium reaction. This means we may also look at this proton transfer reaction from the product side towards the reactants. Summarizing what has been said, we may write the equilibrium as:

HA (aq) + B (aq) ⇄ BH^{+} (aq) + A^{-} (aq)

Now acid, HA, donates a proton to become a conjugate base. The conjugate base, if we look from the reverse equation side, is actually a base, since it can accept a proton to become HA. Similarly, B accepts a proton to become a conjugate acid. Looking from the reverse reaction, it can now donate a proton, so in reality we can consider it a base.

To summarize, your logic is correct.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 87.75g of NaCI in 500.ml of solution
Brut [27]

Answer:

M = 3.0 mol/L.

Explanation:

  • We can calculate the molarity of a solution using the relation:

<em>M = (mass x 1000) / (molar mass x V)</em>

  • M is the molarity "number of moles of solute per 1.0 L of the solution.
  • mass is the mass of the solute (g) (m = 87.75 g of NaCl).
  • molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol.
  • V is the volume of the solution (ml) (V = 500.0 ml).

∴ M = (mass x 1000) / (molar mass x V) = (87.75 g x 1000) / (58.44 g/mol x 500.0 ml) = 3.0 mol/L.
