Answer:

v = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a person, d = 105 m

Time taken, t = 70 s

We need to find the average speed of the person. We know that the average speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{105\ m}{70\ s}\\\\v=1.5\ m/s$

So, the average speed of the person is equal to 1.5 m/s.

Find percent yield:

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: The percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For $B_5H_9$ :

Given mass of $B_5H_9$ = 4.0 g

Molar mass of $B_5H_9$ = 63.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of }B_5H_9=\frac{4g}{63.12g/mol}=0.0634mol$

For oxygen gas:

Given mass of oxygen gas = 10.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen gas}=\frac{10g}{32g/mol}=0.3125mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of $B_5H_9$ and oxygen gas follows:

$2B_5H_9+12O_2\rightarrow 5B_2O_3+9H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas reacts with 2 moles of $B_2H_5$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will react with = $\frac{2}{12}\times 0.3125=0.052mol$ of $B_2H_5$

As, given amount of $B_2H_5$ is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, oxygen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas produces 5 moles of $B_2O_3$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will produce = $\frac{5}{12}\times 0.3125=0.130moles$ of water

Now, calculating the mass of $B_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of $B_2O_3$ = 69.93 g/mol

Moles of $B_2O_3$ = 0.130 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.130mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }B_2O_3}{69.63g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }B_2O_3=(0.130mol\times 69.63g/mol)=9.052g$

To calculate the percentage yield of $B_2O_3$ , we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of $B_2O_3$ = 8.32 g

Theoretical yield of $B_2O_3$ = 9.052 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of }B_2O_3=\frac{8.32g}{9.052g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of }B_2O_3=91.8\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

Which of the following buffers will be most effective at pH 9.25? Group of answer choices a mixture of 1.0 M HC2H3O2 and 1.0 M N

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

pH of a buffer = pKa + log ([A-]/[Ha])

a mixture of 1.0 M HC2H3O2 and 1.0 M NaC2H3O2 (Ka for acetic acid = 1.8 x 10-5)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)

pH = 4.74

a mixture of 1.0 M NaCN and 1.0 M KCN (Ka for HCN = 4.9 x 10-10)

pH = -log( 4.9 * 10^-10) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)

pH = 9.30

a mixture of 1.0 M HCl and 1.0 M NaCl

The solution made from NaCl and HCl will NOT act as a buffer.

HCl is a strong acid while NaCl is salt of strong acid and strong base which do not from buffer solutions hence due to HCl PH is less than 7.

a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl (Kb for ammonia = 1.76 x 10^-5)

Ka * Kb = 1*10^-14

Ka = 10^-14 / 1.76*10^-5

Ka = 5.68*10^-10

pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10)

pH = 9.25

The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl
