Classify each cation as a weak acid or pH neutral (neither acidic nor basic).

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexeev081 [22]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. Na+ is pH neutral

b. Ni2+ = weak acid

c. NH4+ = Weak acid

Explanation:

To know the nature of the cation we need to find the nature of its conjugate base.

If the conjugate base of the ion is a strong base, the ion is neutral.

If the conjugate base is a weak base, the ion is a weak acid:

a. Conjugate base Na+ = NaOH

Sodium hydroxide is a strong base:

Na+ is pH neutral

b. Conjugate base Ni²⁺: Ni(OH)2 is a weak base because is not completely soluble in water. That means:

Ni2+ = weak acid

c. Conjugate base NH4+: NH4OH. Weak base:

NH4+ = Weak acid

You burn 270 grams of glucose during respiration. How
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

396 g OF CO2 WILL BE PRODUCED BY 270 g OF GLUCOSE IN A RESPIRATION PROCESS.

Explanation:

To calculate the gram of CO2 produced by burning 270 g of gucose, we first write out the equation for the reaction and equate the two variables involved in the question;

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -------> 6CO2 + 6H2O

1 mole of C6H12O6 reacts to form 6 moles of CO2

Then, calculate the molar mass of the two variables;

Molar mass of glucose = ( 12 *6 + 1* 12 + 16* 6) g/mol = 180 g/mol

Molar mass of CO2 = (12 + 16 *2) g/mol = 44 g/mol

Next is to calculate the mass of glucose and CO2 involved in the reaction by multiplying the molar mass by the number of moles

1* 180 g of glucose yields 6 * 44 g of CO2

180 g of glucose = 264 g of CO2

If 270 g of glucose were to be used, how many grams of CO2 will be produced;

so therefore,

180 g of glucose = 264 g of CO2

270 g of glucose = x grams of CO2

x = 264 * 270 / 180

x = 71 280 / 180

x = 396 g of CO2.

In other words, 396 g of CO2 will be produced by respiration from 270 g of glucose.
