They both have a different number of moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

40 g HCl

40 g NaHCO3

Required

moles

Solution

The mole is the number of particles contained in a substance

1 mol = 6.02.10²³

Moles can also be determined from the amount of substance mass and its molar mass

n = mass : molar mass

So the moles of a compound are affected by its molar mass (inversely proportional)

The larger the molar mass (of the same mass), the smaller the moles

molar mass HCl = 58.5 g/mol

molar mass NaHCO3 = 84 g/mol

mol HCl :

= 40 : 58.5

= 0.684

mol NaHCO# :

= 40 : 84

= 0.476

In order to change a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas, what is needed?

AfilCa [17]

Latent heat, also called the heat of vaporization, is the amount of energy necessary to change a liquid to a vapour at constant temperature and pressure. The energy required to melt a solid to a liquid is called the heat of fusion

Name each of the following species for the following acid-base reactions. (The equilibrium lies to the right in each case, i.e.,

DaniilM [7]

Answer: a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

The species accepting a proton is considered as a base and after accepting a proton, it forms a conjugate acid.

The species losing a proton is considered as an acid and after loosing a proton, it forms a conjugate base

For the given chemical equation:

a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

#1: Which of the following is an exothermic reaction?

aleksandrvk [35]

<span>An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released from the reagents into the ambient environment. Perhaps somewhat counterintuitively, condensation is in fact an example of such a reaction. During the process of the gas-to-liquid phase change, water goes from a higher-energy to lower-energy state of matter, and, as such, releases heat into the environment.</span>
