A 1.513 g sample of KHP (C8H5O4K) is dissolved in 50.0 mL of DI water. When the KHP solution was titrated with NaOH, 14.8 mL was
son4ous [18]

Answer:

0.501 M

Explanation:

  • KHP + NaOH → NaKP + H₂O

First we <u>convert 1.513 g of KHP into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 1.513 g ÷ 204.22 g/mol = 7.41x10⁻³ mol = 7.41 mmol

As <em>1 mol of KHP reacts with 1 mol of NaOH</em>, in 14.8 mL of the NaOH solution there were 7.41 mmoles of NaOH.

With the above information in mind we can <u>calculate the molarity of the NaOH solution</u>:

  • 7.41 mmol / 14.8 mL = 0.501 M

True or False: "Endothermic Reactions absorbs energy in the form of heat."
alexira [117]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Endo means inside

but exo means outside

an Endo thermic reaction sounds like it wouldn't be the one to give off heat, so it might be storing heat.

Tanya [424]
Material that absorbs or reflects all light that reaches it is called opaque. 

An object is translucent when it allows some light to go through and reflects the others It is transparent when all light goes through it. Pigmented on the other hand changes the color of the light. 

The answer is D.

Which can lead scientists to change a theory that has already been accepted? Check all that apply. changes to scientific laws ne
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

New experimental methods

Technological inventions

Explanation:

A scientific theory is usually not based on speculation. Scientific theories must have a solid empirical basis.

However, experimental methods are limited to the caliber of equipments available at the time in which a theory is formulated. With advancing years, more technological sophistication leads to the invention of new instruments and ultimately, the development of new experimental methods.

These innovations are likely to alter existing scientific theories as new evidences emerge, hence the answer.

In an oxygen molecule, the two oxygen atoms are held together by a double bond with a bond energy of 495 kJ/mol. Using the balan
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The energy need to break this 0=0 bond is 495 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

oxygen molecule = O2

In an O2 molecule, the 2 O-atoms are held together by a double bond with a bond energy of 495 kJ/mol.

To break this chemical bound, it requires energy

2O(g) → O2(g)

The bound energy of  a double oxygen bound = 495 kJ/mol

Since we have 1 molecule (consisting in 2 O atoms)

The energy need to break this 0=0 bond is 495 kJ/mol
