Answer:

M=235.42g/mol

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, given this is an acid-base neutralization and we are considering a diprotic acid, we can write the following mole-mole relationship:

2n_{acid}=n_{base}

It means that the moles of acid can be computed given the volume and concentration of NaOH:

n_{acid}=\frac{M_{base}V_{base}}{2} =\frac{0.044391L*0.111mol/L}{2} \\\\n_{acid}=2.46x10^{-4}mol

It means that the approximate molar mass of the acid is:

M=\frac{m_{acid}}{n_{acid}} \\\\M=\frac{m_{acid}}{n_{acid}} =\frac{0.58g}{2.46x10^{-3}mol}\\\\M=235.42g/mol

Best regards!

According the the arrhenius theory, which species does an acid produce in an aqueous solution?
4vir4ik [10]
Note: Above question is incomplete: Complete question is read as 
<span>According the the arrhenius theory, which species does an acid produce in an aqueous solution?
</span>A) hydrogen ions B) hydroxyl ions C) Sodium ions D) Chloride ion
.....................................................................................................................
Correct answer for above question is A) Hydrogen ions

Reason:
According the Arrhenius theory of acid and base, acid generates hydrogen ions in aqueous medium, while bases generates hydroxyl ions in aqueous medium.  
Example of Acid:
HCl(aq)          →          H+(aq)    + Cl-(aq)

Example of Base:
NaOH(aq)           →          Na+(aq)       +     OH-(aq)

How many moles are in 20g of potassium (K)?
otez555 [7]

Explanation:

Hi for this one u just need to remember and use the equation.

moles =  \frac{mass}{mr}

then u find mr of potassium which is 39.1.

then u do

\frac{20}{39.1}

you get the answer as 0.5115 write ur answer to 3 significant figures which will be 0.512 moles .

hope this helps :)

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

=3,723.3 J=3.72  but if it has the option of -3.72 kJ then use that

Explanation:

Use the formula q=m×Cp×delta T

m=1.500 kg=1,500 g

Co=2.52 J/g·k

delta T=0.985k

q=(1,500g)(2.52 J/g·k)(0.985k)

How does the greenhouse effect relate to the theme of stability and change
Nadya [2.5K]
The greenhouse effect increases the temperature of the Earth by trapping heat in our atmosphere. This keeps the temperature of the Earth higher than it would be if direct heating by the Sun was the only source of warming.
When the sunlight reaches the surface of the Earth, some of it is absorbed which warms the ground and some bounces back to space as heat. Greenhouse gases that are in the atmosphere absorb and then redirect some of this heat back towards the Earth.
