A chemist uses a standard solution of 0.210 M lithium hydroxide (LiOH) to titrate 28.10 mL of sulfurous acid acid (H2SO3), she f

inds that it requires 22.14 mL of the base to reach the end-point of the titration. What is the molarity of the acid solution? What is the concentration of H2SO3?
Your answer must be rounded to the correct number of significant figures. Be sure to specify a unit.

Answer:

M_{acid}=0.0827M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we should consider the acid-base reaction between sulfurous acid and lithium hydroxide:

2LiOH+H_2SO_3\rightarrow Li_2SO3+2H_2O

Thus, we notice a 2:1 molar ratio between lithium hydroxide and sulfurous acid, for that reason, at the equivalence point we have:

2*n_{acid}=n_{base}

That in terms of concentrations and volumes is:

2*M_{acid}V_{base}=M_{base}V_{base}

Thus, we solve for the molarity of the acid which is sulfurous acid:

M_{acid}=\frac{M_{base}V_{base}}{2*V_{base}} =\frac{0.210M*22.14mL}{2*28.10mL}\\\\M_{acid}=0.0827M

Best regards.

Answer:

0.0827M of H₂SO₃

Explanation:

LiOH reacts with H₂SO₃ to produce water and Li₂SO₃, thus:

2LiOH + H₂SO₃ → 2H₂O + Li₂SO₃

<em>Where 2 moles of lithium hydroxide react with 1 mole of sulfurous acid.</em>

As the chemist requires 22.14mL = 0.02214L of a 0.210M solution to neutralize the acid, moles of LiOH are:

0.02214L × (0.210mol / L) =<em>0.004649 moles of LiOH</em>.

As 2 moles of LiOH react with 1 mole of H₂SO₃, moles of H₂SO₃ are:

0.004649 moles of LiOH ₓ (1 mole H₂SO₃ / 2 mol LiOH) =

<em>0.002325 moles of H₂SO₃</em>

These moles are present in 28.10mL = 0.02810L. Thus, molar concentration of the acid is:

0.002325 moles H₂SO₃ / 0.02810L = <em>0.0827M of H₂SO₃</em>

Graph of the relationship between mass and thermal energy
elixir [45]

<em>Thermal energy</em> is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the particles in an object.

Assume that you have 250 gL of water and 1 kg of water at the same temperature.

Then, each water molecule has the same kinetic energy.

The larger sample contains four times as many molecules, so it contains four times as much thermal energy.

Thus, thermal energy is directly proportional to mass.

In symbols, <em>KE </em>∝ <em>m</em> or <em>KE = km</em>.

The graph of a direct proportion is a <em>straight line passing trough the origin</em>.

It should look something like the graph below.

What is the type of structure indicated below?
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Electron dot structure

Explanation:

This is because electron dot structure is the structure that shows or indicate valence electrons of an atom and dots

is use around the element symbols . The number of dots shows the total number of valence electrons that are present in the atom of the molecules.

The change in direction of all free-moving objects ?
Makovka662 [10]
Moving in a direction is called having a "velocity". A velocity is just having a speed, but only in one direction. Because of a thing called "Newton's First Law", in order to change the speed or direction of an object, it must be accelerated, which is a fancy way of saying it's velocity must change with respect to time, meaning that for every second it travels while be accelerated, its velocity will change by this much, either in speed or direction or both. Due to "Newton's Second Law", and acceleration is gained by applying a force. Using the equation "F = ma" where F is force applied, m is mass of the object, and a is the acceleration of the object. This means that it is harder to move things with more mass.
Specifically relating to change in direction, force is also a thing which has a direction. A force can be any size, and also have any direction. When a force is applied in a certain direction, the acceleration of the object will be in the same direction of the force.
