e added to this system, indicate whether the following statements are true or false. (Assume that the volume does not change upon the addition of potassium hydroxide.) A. The number of moles of HClO will decrease. B. The number of moles of ClO- will increase. C. The equilibrium concentration of H3O+ will remain the same. D. The pH will decrease. E.

Explanation:

When OH- (as in potassium hydroxide) is added, it reacts with the acid (HOCl) to reduce the amount of HOCl and increase the concentration of  sodium hypochlorite.

Potassium hydroxide will react with the hypochlorous acid to produce hypochlorite ions. In the process, some of the weak acid will be consumed, along with the added strong base.

This occurs as follows:

HClO(aq) + KOH(aq) → KClO(aq) + H2O(l)  

since water is formed, this maintains the pH.  Thus ...

A. The number of moles of HClO will decrease. - TRUE

B. The number of moles of ClO- will increase. - TRUE

C. The equilibrium concentration of H3O+ will remain the same. - TRUE

D. The pH will decrease. - FALSE

E. The ratio of [HClO] / [ClO-] will decrease. -TRUE. It will decrease as HClO goes down and ClO- goes up.

A student takes a measured volume of 3.00 M HCl to prepare a 50.0 mL sample of 1.80 M HCI. What volume of 3.00 M HCI
frozen [14]

Answer:

30 mL VOLUME OF 3.0 M HCl SHOULD BE USED BY THE STUDENT TO MAKE A 1.80 M IN 50 mL OF HCl.

Explanation:

M1 = 3.00 M

M2 = 1.80 M

V2 = 50 .0 mL = 50 /1000 L = 0.05 L

V1 = unknown

In solving this question, we know that number of moles of a solution is equal to the molar concentration multiplied by the volume. To compare two samples, we equate both number of moles and substitute for the required component.

So we use the equation:

                                  M1 V1 = M2 V2

V1 = M2 V2 / M1

V2 = 1.80 * 0.05 / 3.0

V2 = 0.09 /3.0

V2 = 0.03 L or 30 mL

To prepare the sample of 1.80 M HCl in 50.0 mL from a 3.0 M HCl, 30 mL volume should be used.

A force of 20 N acts upon 5 kg block caculate the accerleration of the object
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}}

Explanation:

F = ma

a = \dfrac{F}{m} = \dfrac{\text{20 N}}{\text{5 kg}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg$\cdot$ m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}}{\text{1 N}} = \text{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}\\\\\text{The acceleration of the object is } \boxed{\textbf{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{\mathbf{-2}}$}}

Which statements accurately describe soap? Select one or more:
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A. Soaps react with ions in hard water to create a precipitate.

B. Soaps are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic.

D. Soaps should be weakly alkaline in solution.

Explanation:

A. Hard water contains <u>magnesium and calcium minerals</u> like calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfates and bicarbonates. As soon as these minerals come in contact with soap their ions like Mg²⁺ & Ca²⁺ form precipitates.

B. Soap are both hydrophilic and hydrophobic. They reason why they exhibit both the properties is really important for their functionality. The hydrophobic part of soap makes interaction with oil/dust particles while the hydrophilic part makes interaction with water. When the cloth is rinsed the dirt/soap particles are removed from the dirty clothes thereby making them clean.

C. Soaps have alkaline pH i.e. more than 7 that is why they have bitter taste.
