What is the ph of the solution prepared by dissolving 0.927 mol hcl in enough water to make a 150 l aqueous solution?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is pH = 2.2

Explanation:

Data

pH = ?

moles of HCl = 0.927

volume = 150 l

Process

1.- Calculate the Molar concentration of HCl

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = 0.927 / 150

              = 0.00618

2.- Calculate the pH

pH = -log [HCl]

Substitution

pH = -log [0.00618]

Result

pH = 2.2

When the temperature of a sample of neon gas increases, what else increases? Distance between the atoms Kinetic energy of the at
Allushta [10]

Answer: Kinetic Energy of the atoms also increases.

Explanation: We are given that the temperature of the gas increases.

Relation between kinetic energy and temperature follows:

K.E._({avg})=\frac{3RT}{2N_A}

where, K = Average Kinetic energy

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

N_A = Avogadro's number

As seen from the relation above, the Kinetic energy of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature, hence as the temperature increases, kinetic energy of the atom also increases.

A 25 kg rock is placed in a graduated cylinder with water.the volume of the fluid is 18.3ml.calculate the density of the rock in
ipn [44]

Answer:

=> 1366.120 g/mL.

Explanation:

To determine the formula to use in solving such a problem, you have to consider what you have been given.

We have;

mass (m)     = 25 Kg

Volume (v) = 18.3 mL.

From our question, we are to determine the density (rho) of the rock.

The formula:

p = \frac{m}{v}

First let's convert 25 Kg to g;

1 Kg    = 1000 g

25 Kg = ?

= \frac{25 × 1000}{1}

= 25000 g

Substitute the values into the formula:

p =  \frac{25000 g}{18.3 ml}

= 1366.120 g/mL.

Therefore, the density (rho) of the rock is  1366.120 g/mL.

Aspirin sun thesis Green Chemistry and Assime the aspirin is prepared by the following reaction and that 10.09. of salicylic aci
klemol [59]

<u>Answer:</u> The percentage yield of aspirin is 38.02 %.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)

  • <u>For salicylic acid:</u>

Given mass of salicylic acid (C_7H_6O_3) = 10.09 g

Molar mass of salicylic acid (C_7H_6O_3) = 138.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{10.09g}{138.12g/mol}=0.0730mol

The chemical equation for the formation of aspirin follows:

C_7H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+CH_3COOH

As, acetic anhydride is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, salicylic acid is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid produces 1 mole of aspirin.

So, 0.0730 moles of salicylic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0730=0.0730mol of aspirin

Now, calculating the mass of aspirin from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of aspirin = 180.16 g/mol

Moles of aspirin = 0.073 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.073mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aspirin}}{180.16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aspirin}=13.15g

To calculate the percentage yield of aspirin, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of aspirin = 5.0 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 13.15 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of aspirin}=\frac{5.0g}{13.15g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of aspirin}=38.02\%

Hence, the percent yield of aspirin is 38.01 %.
