During the winter months, many locations experience snow and ice storms. It is a common practice to treat roadways and sidewalks

with salt, such as CaCO3 . If a 11.3 kg bag of CaCO3 is used to treat the sidewalk, how many moles of CaCO3 does this bag contain?

Answer:

The number of moles of CaCO3 on the bag is 112.90 moles

Explanation:

number mole (n) = mass (m) divided by molecular mass (Mm)

Mm of CaCO3 = 100.0869 g/mole

mass in grams = 11.3 Kg x (10^3 g/1 Kg) = 11300 grams

number of moles (n) = 11300 grams divided by 100.0869 grams per mole = 112.90 moles of CaCO3 in the bag.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In science, we like to develop explanations that we can use to predict the outcome of events and phenomena. Try to develop an explanation that tells how much NaOH needs to be added to a beaker of HCl to cause the color to change. Your explanation can be something like: The color change will occur when [some amount] of NaOH is added because the color change occurs when [some condition]. The goal for your explanation is that it describes the outcome of this example, but can also be used to predict the outcome of other examples of this phenomenon. Here's an example explanation: The color of the solution will change when 40 ml of NaOH is added to a beaker of HCl because the color always changes when 40ml of base is added. Although this explanation works for this example, it probably won't work in examples where the flask contains a different amount of HCl, such as 30ml. Try to make an explanation that accurately predicts the outcome of other versions of this phenomenon.

Solution :

Consider the equation of the reaction between NaOH and $HCl$

NaOH (aq) + HCl (aq) → NaCl(aq) + $H_2O (l)$

The above equation tells us that $1 \text{mole}$ of $NaOH$ reacts with $1 \text{mole}$ of $HCl$ .

So at the equivalence point, the moles of NaOH added = moles of $HCl$ present.

If the volume of the $HCl$ taken = $V_1$ mL and the conc. of $HCl$ = $M_1$ mole/L

The volume of NaOH added up to the color change = $V_2 \text{ and conc of NaOH = M}_2$ mole/L

Moles of $HCl$ taken = $V_1 \ mL \times M_1 \ mol/100 \ mL = V_2M_2 \times 10^{-3}$ moles.

The color change will occur when the moles of NaOH added is equal to the moles of $HCl$ taken.

Thus when $V_1 M_1 \times 10^{-3} = V_2M_2 \times 10^{-3}$

or when $V_1M_1 = V_2M_2$

or $V_2=\frac{V_1M_1}{M_2}$ mL of NaOH added, we observe the color change.

Where $V_1, M_1$ are the volume and molarity of the $HCl$ taken.

$M_2$ is the molarity of NaOH added.

When both the NaOH and $HCl$ are of the same concentrations, i.e. if $M_1=M_2$ , then $V_2=V_1$

Or the 40 mL of $HCl$ will need 40 mL of NaOH for a color change and

30 mL of $HCl$ would need 30 mL of NaOH for the color change (provided the concentration $M_1=M_2$ )

Briefly explain why an unbalanced chemical equation cannot fully describe a reaction?

zubka84 [21]

From the conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed. So ponder it this way, for example I put one piece of toast in a toaster, but when it is done I had two pieces, that makes no sense right? Same thing with a chemical reaction but in molecular terms, all things must stay constant. If you put a convinced amount you have to get that quantity back, not less or not more in broad terms.

2. Suppose that 21.37 mL of NaOH is needed to titrate 10.00 mL of 0.1450 M H2SO4 solution.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.1357 M

Explanation:

(a) The balanced reaction is shown below as:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O$

(b) Moles of $H_2SO_4$ can be calculated as:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Or,

$Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Given :

For $H_2SO_4$ :

Molarity = 0.1450 M

Volume = 10.00 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 10×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of $H_2SO_4$ :

$Moles=0.1450 \times {10\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of $H_2SO_4$ = 0.00145 moles

From the reaction,

1 mole of $H_2SO_4$ react with 2 moles of NaOH

0.00145 mole of $H_2SO_4$ react with 2*0.00145 mole of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 0.0029 moles

Volume = 21.37 mL = 21.37×10⁻³ L

Molarity = Moles / Volume = 0.0029 / 21.37×10⁻³ M = 0.1357 M
