Here is the chemical equation for gun powder, in it’s simple form:
<span>2 KNO3 + S + 3 C → K2S + N2 + 3 CO2.</span>
This is the same simplified formula, only balanced:
<span>10 KNO3 + 3 S + 8 C → 2 K2CO3 + 3 K2SO4 + 6 CO2 + 5 N2.</span>
H2 <span>because the smaller the gas molecule, the faster the diffusion. (the lightest molecule will diffuse the quickest)</span>
Answer:
Filtration
Explanation:
Metal carbonate is insoluble, it is possible to filter off the unreacted substances leaving the desired salt solution
Answer is: ph value is 3.56.
Chemical reaction 1: H₂CO₃(aq) ⇄ HCO₃⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₁ = 4,3·10⁻⁷.
Chemical reaction 2: HCO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ CO₃²⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₂ = 5,6·10⁻¹¹.
c(H₂CO₃) = 0,18 M.
[HCO₃⁻] = [H⁺<span>] = x.
</span>[H₂CO₃] = 0,18 M - x.
Ka₁ = [HCO₃⁻] · [H⁺] / [H₂CO₃].
4,3·10⁻⁷ = x² / (0,18 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [H⁺] =0,000293 M.
pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(0,000293 M).
pH = 3,56; second Ka do not contributes pH value a lot.
