Briefly describe the action of hardwater with soap

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - hard water reacts to form the calcium or magnesium salt of the organic acid of the soap.

Explanation:

Soaps are made up of fatty acids or oils by treating with strong alkali and are salts of sodium and potassium. Hard water, on the other hand, has a high concentration of minerals in comparison to soft water. When hard water and soap are mixed together the salts of the minerals like Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions present in hard water react with fatty acids of the soap.

The sodium salts are changed to the salts of calcium and magnesium which are precipitated to an insoluble substance. The insoluble salts of the calcium or magnesium dirt stick on the clothes thus cleaning ability of soap is reduced.

An oxide of nitrogen contains 30.45 mass % N.

N76 [4]

An oxide of nitrogen contains 30.45 mass % N, if the molar mass is 90± 5 g/mol the molecular formula is N₂O₄.

<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>

The molar mass of a chemical compound is determined by dividing its mass by the quantity of that compound, expressed as the number of moles in the sample, measured in moles. A substance's molar mass is one of its properties. The compound's molar mass is an average over numerous samples, which frequently have different masses because of isotopes.

<h3>How to find the molecular formula?</h3>

The whole-number multiple is defined as follows.

Whole-number multiple = $\frac{molar mass (g/mol)}{empirical formula mass (g/mol)}$

The empirical formula mass is shown below.

Mw of empirical formula = Mw of N+ 2 x (Mw of O)

= 14.01 g/mol + 2 x (16.00 g/mol)

= 46.01 g/mol

With the given molar mass or the molecular formula mass, we can get the whole-number multiple for the compound.

Whole-number multiple = $\frac{90 g/mol }{46.01 g/mol}$ ≈ 2

Multiplying the subscripts of NO2 by 2, the molecular formula is N(1x2)O(2x2)= N2O4.

C2H4(g) + H2(g) → C2H6(g) ΔH = –137.5 kJ; ΔS = –120.5 J/K Calculate ΔG at 25 °C and determine whether the reaction is spontaneou

Katen [24]

Answer:-ΔG=-101.5KJ

Explanation:We have to calculate ΔG for the reaction so using the formula given in the equation we can calculate the \Delta G for the reaction.

We need to convert the unit ofΔS in terms of KJ/Kelvin as its value is given in terms of J/Kelvin

Also we need to convert the temperature in Kelvin as it is given in degree celsius.

$\Delta H=-137.5\\ \Delta S=-120J/K\\ \Delta S=-0.120KJ/K\\ T=25^{.C}\\ T=273+25=298 K\\ \Delta G=?\\ \Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\Delta G=-137.5KJ-(278\times -0.120)\\ \Delta G=-137.5+35.76\\\Delta G=-101.74\\\Delta G=Negative$

After calculating forΔG we found that the value ofΔG is negative and its value is -101.74KJ

For a reaction to be spontaneous the value of \Delta G \ must be negative .

As the ΔG for the given reaction is is negative so the reaction will be spontaneous in nature.

In this reaction since the entropy of reaction is positive and hence when we increase the temperature term then the overall term TΔS would become more positive and hence the value of ΔG would be less negative .

Hence the value of ΔG would become more positive with the increase in temperature.

So we found the value of ΔG to be -101.74KJ
