For each of the acid–base reactions, calculate the mass (in grams) of each acid necessary to completely react with and neutraliz
LiRa [457]

Acid-base neutralization reaction is defined as reaction of acid with base to form corresponding salt and water. Strong acid and base completely neutralize each other.

(a) The acid base neutralization reaction is as follows:

HCl(aq)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow H_{2}O(l)+NaCl(g)

From the above balanced chemical reaction, 1 mol of NaOH completely reacts with 1 mol of HCl. The mass of NaOH is given 4.85 g, convert this into number of moles as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Molar mass of NaOH is 39.997 g/mol, thus,

n=\frac{4.85 g}{39.997 g/mol}=0.121 mol

Thus, 0.121 mol of NaOH reacts with same amount of HCl and number of moles of HCl will be 0.121 mol.

Since. molar mass of HCl is 36.46 g/mol, thus, mass can be calculated as follows:

m=n\times M=0.121 mol\times 36.46 g/mol=4.421 g

Therefore, 4.421 g of HCl completely reacts with 4.85 g of NaCl.

(b) The acid base neutralization reaction is as follows:

2HNO_{3}(aq)+Ca(OH)_{2}(aq)\rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)+Ca(NO_{3})_{2}(aq)

From the above balanced chemical reaction, 1 mol of Ca(OH)_{2} completely reacts with 2 mol of  HNO_{3}. The mass of Ca(OH)_{2}   is given 4.85 g, convert this into number of moles as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Molar mass of Ca(OH)_{2}  is 74.093 g/mol, thus,

n=\frac{4.85 g}{74.093 g/mol}=0.06545 mol

Thus, 0.06545 mol of Ca(OH)_{2} reacts with 2\times 0.06545 mol=0.13091 mol of HNO_{3}

Since. molar mass of HNO_{3} is 63.01 g/mol, thus, mass can be calculated as follows:

m=n\times M=0.13091 mol\times 63.01 g/mol=8.25 g

Therefore, 8.25 g of HNO_{3} completely reacts with 4.85 g of Ca(OH)_{2}.

(c) The acid base neutralization reaction is as follows:

H_{2}SO_{4}(aq)+2 KOH (aq)\rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)+K_{2}SO_{4}(aq)

From the above balanced chemical reaction, 2 mol of KOH completely reacts with 1 mol of  H_{2}SO_{4}. The mass of KOH  is given 4.85 g, convert this into number of moles as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Molar mass of KOH  is 56.1056 g/mol, thus,

n=\frac{4.85 g}{56.1056 g/mol}=0.0864 mol

Thus, 0.0864 mol of KOH reacts with \frac{0.0864 mol}{2}=0.0432 mol of H_{2}SO_{4}

Since. molar mass of H_{2}SO_{4} is 98.079 g/mol, thus, mass can be calculated as follows:

m=n\times M=0.0432 mol\times 98.079 g/mol=4.24 g

Therefore, 4.24 g of KOH completely reacts with 4.85 g of H_{2}SO_{4}.

Devise a way to separate a mixture of sand, salt, and iron filings. Write the procedure using a step-by-step method and explain
aev [14]
1. Iron fillings are magnetic, so use a magnet to pull the iron fillings out of the mix.
2. Then you can put the salt and sand mixture into water, since salt is soluble, and the salt will dissolve, leaving you with sand.

Akosua has observed that anytime she drinks sobolo, her stool appears dark green. On one occasion
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

i. Sobolo is a Ghanian drink that is produced from red hibiscus flower that has an average pH of 6.7

It contains cyanidin and anthocyanins, which is a red pigment that is red in an acidic medium and changes green when introduced in a basic medium that has a high pH

The pH at the rectum of the digestive system = 5 to 8 (Slightly basic)

Therefore, what made the stool of Akosua green is that the sobolo drink changes to green in basic solution

ii. The stool which appeared green because she took sobolo turn into bright red upon mixing with the acidic WC water because of the presence of anthocyanins in sobolo, it turns red in an acidic medium

iii. Sobolo which turns green, or blue in a basic medium and red in an acidic medium can be used as a litmus solution to test the pH of a given substance

Explanation:

Sobolo or soobolo in Ghana is a name for the Hibiscus tea or tisane, which is made from calyces of the hibiscus plant, and has a sour (tangy) taste and appears bright red in color
