Are beverages usually acidic or basic? Why is this?

Chemistry

lions [1.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

ACIDIC

Explanation:

Usually beverages contain carbonated water. Carbonated water is the water containing dissolved carbon dioxide gas.

The carbon dioxide gas (CO₂) when dissolved in water produces carbonic acid (H₂CO₃), which makes the drinks acidic in nature.

H₂O(l) + CO₂(g) → H₂CO₃(aq)

This makes the pH of the drinks around 3 - 4.

Therefore, the beverages are usually acidic and not basic.

If this compounds (N2O) molecular mass is 88g are the empirical and molecular formulas the same as one another or different
Softa [21]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Let us examine this problem carefully:

Given compound is N₂O

Molecular mass = 88g

Now,

The empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound.

The molecular formula is the true formula of the compound that shows that actual ratios of the atoms in a compound.

To find if they both have the same molecular and empirical formula, they must have the same molecular mass.

 For N₂O;

     Molecular mass = 2(14) + 16 = 44g/mole

But the true and given molecular formula of the compound is 88g/mole

This shows that the compound given is the empirical formula of the compound.

  Molecular formula:

              molecular mass of empirical formula x n = molecular mass of molecular formula

         n  = \frac{88}{44}  = 2

Molecular formula of compound = 2(N₂O) = N₄O₂

Therefore the empirical and molecular formulas are not the same

Na3po4 dissolves in water to produce an electrolytic solution. what is the osmolarity of a 2. 0 × 10-3 m na3po4 solution?
vichka [17]

When Na3po4 dissolves in water to produce an electrolytic solution. The osmolarity of a 2. 0 × 10-3 m Na3po4 solution is 0.008osmol/L.

Osmolarity is defined as the number of osmoles of solute particles per unit volume of the solution.

In other words osmolarity is the multiple if molarity

Osmolarity = i× molarity

Here i represents the van't Hoff factor,

Na_{3}PO_{4} ⇒ 3Na^{+} + PO_{4} ^{-}

3  Moles of Na_{} ^{+} + 1 mole PO_{4} ^{-} = 4

The number of moles of particles of solute produced in solution are actually called osmoles.

As a result, the van't Hoff factor will be equal to

i=4 Moles ions produced (osmoles) 1mole Na_{3} PO_{4} .dissolved =4

Since we know that,

Na_{3} PO_{4} = 2.0 * 10^{-3} M

Osmolarity =

4*2.0*10^{-3} M = 8.0 * 10^{-3}  osmol L -10s

Thus, the Osmolarity of given solution is 0.008 osmol/L.
