Answer:

Fossil fuels are found underneath the Earth's surface at varying depths. These fuels - coal, oil, and natural gas - were formed as a result of the remains of dead plants and organic matter being buried and altered over millions of years.

the ph of a solution of HCl in water is found to be 2.50. what volume of water would you add to 1.00L of this solution to raise

morpeh [17]

Answer:

To raise the pH of the solution to 3.10 we have to add 2.34 L of water.

Explanation:

Given that the pH of the solution of HCl in water is 2.5. Here the solution’s pH is changing from 2.5 to 3.10 which means the acidic nature of the solution is decreasing here on dilution. $[H^+]$ ions contribute to a solution’s acidic nature and $[OH^-]$ contribute to a solution’s basic nature.

The equation connecting the concentration of $[H^+]$ and pH of a solution is pH= $-log[H^+]$

 $[H^+]= 10^(^-^p^H^)$ $[H^+]= 10^(^-^2^.^5^)=0.00316$ 

When the pH is $3.1 [H^+ ]= 10^(^-^3^.^1^)=0.000794$ 

On dilution the concentration of a solution decreases and volume increases.

 $M_1 V_1 = M_2 V_2$ 

 $0.00316 \times 1 = 0.000794 \times V_2$ 

 $V_2 = \frac{(0.00316 \times 1)}{0.000794} =3.24$ 

Volume of water to be added $=3.24-1$ 

 $=2.24L$

How many moles of potassium+hydroxide+would+react+with+one+mole+of+hydrocloric acid

g100num [7]

Answer:

1 mole of potassium hydroxide, KOH

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

KOH + HCl —> KCl + H₂O

Considering the balanced equation above, we can see clearly that 1 mole of potassium hydroxide, KOH reacted with 1 mole of hydrochloric acid, HCl.

Therefore, we can conclude that at every given point, 1 mole of potassium hydroxide, KOH is required to react with 1 mole of hydrochloric acid, HCl.

Using the trend for chlorine, create a rule for naming halogen oxyacids.

Vlada [557]

All oxayacids have cations so no need to name the cation (H+) If name of polyatomic anion ends in -ate change to -ic for acid and if it ends with -ite change to -ous for acid

example:

ion nitrate is called nitric acid
ion nitrate is called nitrous acid

Which of the following solutions contains the largest number of moles of dissolved particles? a.) 25 ml of sodium chloride b.) 2

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

b.) 25 ml of aluminum hydroxide

Explanation:

For this question, we have to assume that we have the same concentration for all the solutions, for example, 1 M. Additionally, we have to take into account the ionization reaction for each species:

a) $NaCl~->~Na^+~+~Cl^-$ we have to ions

b) $Al(OH)_3~->~Al^+^3~+~3OH^-$ we have fourth ions

c) $CH_3COOH~->~CH_3COO^-~+~H^+$ we have two ions

d) $C_6H_1_2O_6~->~C_6H_1_2O_6$ we have one ion

If we have the same volume and the same concentration the variables that will help us to answer the question would be the number of ions. If we have more ions we will have more particles dissolved. Therefore the answer would be b) (due to the fourth ions).

I hope it helps
