. What happens the pH of an acid solution as a base is added?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]3 years ago

As a base is added to an acidic solution, the H+ ions in solution that make it acidic are slowly neutralized into water (via OH-, the base). As these ions are converted into water the concentration of them decreases, so the pH decreases, as they are directly related.

Hope this helps!

Need help with this question.... Next to each Formula, write the number of atoms of each element found in one unit of the compou
Andrew [12]

Answer:

The number of atoms present in one unit of the following compounds is:

a). Potassium Iodide , KI = 2

b).Sodium Sulfide, Na_{2}S = 3

c). Silicon Dioxide , SiO_{2} = 3

d). Carbonic Acid ,H_{2}CO_{3} = 6

Explanation:

Atomicity : It is defined as the number of atoms that are present in a given molecule/compound.

Atom : The smallest unit of matter is called atom. For e.g O is atom of oxygen but O_{2} is not an atom , it is molecule of oxygen .

O_{2} molecule has 2 atoms of Oxygen

Similarly  Na , K , Fe are atoms but O_{2} ,CO_{2} ,N_{2},H_{2}  are molecules

a).Potassium Iodide

KI = 1 atom of K + 1 atom of I

Total atoms = 2

b) Sodium Sulfide

Na_{2}S = 2 atoms of Na + 1 atom of S

Total atoms = 3

c) Silicon Dioxide

SiO_{2} = 1 atom of Si + 2 atoms of O

Total atoms = 3

d) Carbonic Acid

H_{2}CO_{3} = 2 atom of H + 1 atom of C + 3 atom of O

= 2+1+3

Total atoms = 6

A 3.4 g sample of an unknown monoprotic organic acid composed of C,H, and O is burned in air to produce 8.58 grams of carbon dio
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

C_7H_6O_2

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, we can divide the problem in three stages: (1) determine the empirical formula with the combustion analysis, (2) compute the molar mass of acid via the moles of the acid in the neutralization and (3) determine the molecular formula.

(1) In this case, since 8.58 g of carbon dioxide are released, we can first compute the moles of carbon in the compound:

n_C=8.58gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.195molC

And the moles of hydrogen due to the produced 1.50 grams of water:

n_H=1.50gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}  =0.166molH

Next, to compute the mass and moles of oxygen, we need to use the initial 3.4 g of the acid:

m_O=3.4g-0.195molC*\frac{12.01gC}{1molC}-0.166molH*\frac{1.01gH}{1molH} =0.89gO\\\\n_O=0.89gO*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO}=0.0556molO

Thus, the subscripts in the empirical formula are:

C=\frac{0.195}{0.0556}=3.5 \\\\H=\frac{0.166}{0.0556}=3\\\\O=\frac{0.0556}{0.0556}=1\\\\C_7H_6O_2

As they cannot be fractions.

(2) In this case, since the acid is monoprotic, we can compute the moles by multiplying the concentration and volume of KOH:

n_{KOH}=0.279L*0.1mol/L\\\\n_{KOH}=0.0279mol

Which are equal to the moles of the acid:

n_{acid}=0.0279mol

And the molar mass:

MM_{acid}=\frac{3.4g}{0.0279mol} =121.86g/mol

(3) Finally, since the molar mass of the empirical formula is:

7*12.01 + 6*1.01 + 2*16.00 = 122.13 g/mol

Thus, since the ratio of molar masses is 122.86/122.13 = 1, we infer that the empirical formula equals the molecular one:

C_7H_6O_2

Best regards!

Why doesnt iron burst into flames when it rusts
Katarina [22]
Rust does not have the properties to catch onto flames. However, if you light it on fire, then it would probably catch in flames but not instantly and will not continue to burn unless you have soaked it in oil or flammable object or substance. :) Hope this helps!
