Answer:

He assumed wrongly

Explanation:

It happened this way because the person assumed wrongly.

Most other compounds have the same physical appearance as water especially when in liquid form.

  • This can be a very tricky one in the laboratory.
  • The sense of taste is not the best way to fathom what a particular compound is made up of.
  • This is the reason why this student or person faced this sort of problem.
  • Water has different properties that can be tested for using simple techniques in the laboratory.

How does the reaction, A + BC ⇌ AB + C, differ from the reaction, N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3 + energy, by which ammonia is synthesized?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ is a thermochemical reaction whereas A+BC⇄AB is not.

A+BC⇄AB is a reaction of pure a element with a compound while N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ is a reaction between two pure elements.

Explanation:

Let A+BC⇄AB be equation i and N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ be equation ii.

The two reactions differ in that ii is a thermo-chemical reaction whereas i is not. This is because energy is included in reaction ii but not included in reaction i.

Also i is a reaction of pure a element with a compound while ii is a reaction between two pure elements. The compound is BC while the pure element is A.

Q: A 25.5 mL aliquot of HCl (aq) of unknown concentration was titrated with 0.113 M NaOH (aq). It took 51.2 mL of the base to re
blondinia [14]
M ( HCl ) = ?

V ( HCl ) = 25.5 mL in liters : 25.5 / 1000 => 0.0255 L

M ( NaOH ) = 0.113 M

V ( NaOH ) = 51.2 mL / 1000 => 0.0512 L

number of moles NaOH:

n = M x V

n = 0.113 x <span> 0.0512 => 0.0057856 moles of NaOH

mole ratio:

</span><span>HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
</span><span>
1 mole HCl -------------- 1 mole NaOH
( moles HCl ) ----------- </span><span> 0.0057856 moles NaOH
</span>
(moles HCl ) = <span> 0.0057856 x 1 / 1
</span>
= <span> 0.0057856 moles of HCl
</span>
M ( HCl ) = n / V

M =  0.0057856 / <span>0.0255
</span>
= 0.227 M

Answer A
