When writing the chemical formulas for a molecular compound, what method do you use?

podryga [215]

Answer:

A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Molecular compounds are named with the first element first and then the second element by using the stem of the element name plus the suffix -ide.

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base but is not very soluble ( Ksp = 5.02 X 10-6 ). What is the pH of a saturated solution of Ca(O

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer : The pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

Explanation : Given,

$K_{sp}$ = $5.02\times 10^{-6}$

First we have to calculate the solubility of $OH^-$ ion.

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be:

$Ca(OH)_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2OH^-$

Let the solubility will be, 's'.

The concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ ion = s

The concentration of $OH^-$ ion = 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

$K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^-]^2$

Let the solubility will be, 's'

$K_{sp}=(s)\times (2s)^2$

$K_{sp}=(4s)^3$

Now put the value of $K_[sp}$ in this expression, we get the solubility.

$5.02\times 10^{-6}=(4s)^3$

$s=1.079\times 10^{-2}M$

The concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ ion = s = $1.079\times 10^{-2}M$

The concentration of $OH^-$ ion = 2s = $2\times (1.079\times 10^{-2}M)=2.158\times 10^{-2}M$

First we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (2.158\times 10^{-2})$

$pOH=1.67$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-1.67=12.33$

Therefore, the pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

When aluminum is placed in concentrated hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is produced. 2 Al ( s ) + 6 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ 2 AlCl 3 ( aq )

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The volume of hydrogen gas produced at STP is 4.90 liters.

Explanation:

$2Al (s) + 6 HCl (aq)\rightarrow 2 AlCl_3 (aq) + 3 H_2 (g)$

Moles of aluminium = $\frac{3.60 g}{27 g/mol}=0.1333 mol$

According to reaction , 2 moles of aluminium gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.1333 moles of aluminium will give:

$\frac{3}{2}\times 0.1333 mol=0.2 moles$ of hydrogen gas

Volume of 0.2 moles of hydrogen gas at STP = V

Temperature at STP = T = 298.15 K

Pressure at STP = P = 1 atm

n = 0.2 mol

PV = nRT (Ideal gas equation)

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{0.2mol\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}{1 atm}=4.8956 L\approx 4.90 L$

The volume of hydrogen gas produced at STP is 4.90 liters.
