Answer:

Option A, The pH of the solution is 2.7 and the solution is acidic

Explanation:

As we know,

pH =  - log [H3O+]

Substituting the given values, we get

pH =  - log [2.1 x 10-3 M]

pH =  - (-2.678)

pH = 2.678 or 2.7

The solution is acidic as pH value is less than 7

Hence, option A is correct

odium carbonate (Na2CO3Na2CO3) is used to neutralize the sulfuric acid spill. How many kilograms of sodium carbonate must be add
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer : The mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, 6.54\times 10^3kg

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of H_2SO_4.

\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2SO_4}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2SO_4}

Given:

Molar mass of H_2SO_4 = 98 g/mole

Mass of H_2SO_4 = 6.05\times 10^3kg=6.05\times 10^6g

Conversion used : (1 kg = 1000 g)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{6.05\times 10^6g}{98g/mol}=6.17\times 10^4mol

The moles of H_2SO_4 is, 6.17\times 10^4mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of Na_2CO_3

The balanced neutralization reaction is:

Na_2CO_3+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2CO_3

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of H_2SO_4 neutralizes 1 mole of Na_2CO_3

So, 6.17\times 10^4mol of H_2SO_4 neutralizes

Now we have to calculate the mass of Na_2CO_3

\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=\text{ Moles of }Na_2CO_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }Na_2CO_3

Molar mass of Na_2CO_3 = 106 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=(6.17\times 10^4mol)\times (106g/mole)=6.54\times 10^6g=6.54\times 10^3kg

Thus, the mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, 6.54\times 10^3kg

Classify each of the following as a homogeneous or heterogeneous substance.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance.

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance.

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance.

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance.

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance.

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance.

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance.

Explanation:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance as iron core contains iron and other impurities

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made up of carbon

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance as it is made up of multiple minerals.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains various substances mixed in it

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance as oil and vinegar itself are different compounds

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance as it only contains one type of molecule

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains water and other minerals

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made of one type of molecule.

The generic metal a forms an insoluble salt ab(s) and a complex ac5(aq). the equilibrium concentrations in a solution of ac5 wer
Leno4ka [110]

Assuming that the reaction from A and C to AC5 is only one-step (or an elementary reaction) with a balanced chemical reaction of:

<span>A + 5 C  --->  AC5 </span>

Therefore the formation constant can be easily calculated using the following formula for formation constant:

Kf = product of products concentrations / product of reactants concentration

<span>Kf = [AC5] / [A] [C]^5                     </span>

---> Any coefficient from the balanced chemical reaction becomes a power in the formula

Substituting the given values into the equation:

Kf = 0.100 M / (0.100 M) (0.0110 M)^5

Kf = 6,209,213,231

or in simpler terms

<span>Kf = 6.21 * 10^9                  (ANSWER)</span>
