Why is it essential for a calorimetry to be an insulated (closed) system?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aksik [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B.Thermal insulation minimizes energy loses to the atmosphere.

Explanation:

It is important because it helps to stop hit from transferring from the calorimeter to the environment. This would help to have an accurate measurement of the heat that was used in the chemical process. The greatest cause of error that happens in calorimetry is when heat is lost to the environment. To reduce this, you insulate the calorimeter and add a cover.

Match the salt with the acid and base used to form it in a neutralizing reaction.
nignag [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

K2SO4 - KOH and H2SO4

NaBr - NaOH and HBr

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Salts are compounds that contain positively charged ions and negatively charged ions. That is; they consist of the positive ion of a base and the negative ion of an acid.
  • Salts may be produced when acids and bases are combined together in equal proportions, a process called neutralization.
  • During neutralization reactions an acid reacts with a base to form a salt and water as the only products.

The ka of hf is 6.8 x 10-4. what is the ph of a 0.35 m solution of hf?
damaskus [11]
When the reaction equation is:

HF ↔ H+   +   F-

and when the Ka expression
= concentration of products/concentration of reactions

so, Ka = [H+][F-]/[HF]

when we assume:

[H+] = [F-] = X

and [HF] = 0.35 - X

So, by substitution:

6.8 x 10^-4 = X^2 / (0.35 - X) by solving for X

∴ X = 0.015 M

∴[H+] = X = 0.015

when PH = -㏒[H+]

∴PH = -㏒0.015

        = 1.8
