The reaction between potassium metal and water produces potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Phantasy [73]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

2K   +   2H₂O   →   2KOH  + H₂

Explanation:

The reactants are:

    Potassium metal  = K

    Water  = H₂O

 The products are:

  Potassium hydroxide  = KOH

  Hydrogen gas  = H₂  

The reaction equation is given as;  

                Reactants   →   Products

        2K   +   2H₂O   →   2KOH  + H₂

The reaction is a single displacement reaction

Wear _______________________ when handling batteries, because they can explode or leak.
Basile [38]

The answer is: b. Safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Battery acid (sulfuric acid) has pH = 0.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).  

Sulfuric acid can come in contact with eyes and hands, so it is important to wear safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

You need to prepare 1 L of the citric acid/citrate buffer. You have chosen to use Method 1 (see lab presentation). Calculate the
prisoha [69]

Answer:

3.11 is the pH of the buffer

Explanation:

The pH of a buffer is obtained using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [Conjugate base] / [Weak acid]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer, pKa = -log Ka = 3.14 for the citric buffer and [] could be taken as the moles of each species.</em>

The citric acid,HX (Weak acid), reacts with NaOH to produce sodium citrate, NaX (weak base) and water:

HX + NaOH → H2O + NaX

That means the moles of NaOH added = Moles of sodium citrate produced

And the resulitng moles of HX = Initial moles - Moles NaOH added

<em>Moles HX and NaX:</em>

Moles NaOH = 0.100L * (0.65mol / L) = 0.065 moles NaOH = Moles NaX

Moles HX = 0.300L * (0.45mol / L) = 0.135 moles HX - 0.065 moles NaOH = 0.070 moles HX

Replacing in H-H equation:

pH = 3.14 + log [0.065mol] / [0.070mol]

pH = 3.11 is the pH of the buffer
