Why is the reaction SO2 + H2O → H2SO2 not balanced?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aalyn [17]2 years ago
5 0

There are more oxygen atoms in the reactants while there are less oxygen atoms in the product.

Both sides of the equation is supposed to be balanced for a balanced equation. If any one of them isn't balanced, the equation remains unbalanced.

The main reason why the reaction above can not be balanced is:

This chemical reaction SO2 + H2O -> H2SO2 is not correctly written.

It must be: SO2 + H2O -> H2SO3

What is the pH of 0.000134 M solution of HCI?
mafiozo [28]

Answer: The pH will be 3.87

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^{-}

According to stoichiometry,

1 mole of HCl gives 1 mole of H^+

Thus 0.000134 moles of HCl gives =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.000134=0.0001342 moles of H^+

Putting in the values:

pH=-\log[0.000134]

pH=3.87

Thus the pH will be 3.87

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 350 grams of copper to cause a 25°C change? The specific heat of cop
jarptica [38.1K]
The heat required to raise the temperature to a specific temperature change of a sample is related to the specific heat capacity of the substance.  In this case, the heat can be calculated through mCpΔT = 350 g * 0.39 J/g C *25 C. This is equal to 3412. 5 Joules. Closest answer is C.
