If liquids are liquids because they take the shape of their container, why isn't salt considered a liquid?

Salt isnt considered a liquid because salt is somewhat solid. A liquid only becomes solid when it is frozen.

Because a liquid has no definite shape but has a definite volume it can take the shape of its container. Salt is considered crystalline solid.


Hope this helps ;-) <span />

Igoryamba

Answer:

8.61 mL of the HCl solution

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • 2HCl + Mg(OH)₂ → MgCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the given mass of Mg(OH)₂, we can calculate <u>the moles of HCl that are neutralized</u>:

  • 4x10² mg = 400 mg = 0.400g
  • 0.400g Mg(OH)₂ ÷ 58.32g/1mol = 6.859*10⁻³ mol Mg(OH)₂
  • 6.859*10⁻³ mol Mg(OH)₂ * \frac{1molHCl}{1molMg(OH)_{2}} = 3.429x10⁻³ mol HCl

Finally, to calculate the volume of an HCl solution, we need both the moles and the concentration. We can <u>calculate the concentration using the pH value</u>:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]
  • 1.4 =  -log[H⁺]
  • 10^{-1.4} = [H⁺]
  • 0.0398 M = [H⁺] = [HCl]  *Because HCl is a strong acid*

Thus, the volume is:

  • 0.0398 M = 3.429x10⁻³mol HCl / Volume
  • Volume = 8.616x10⁻³ L = 8.62 mL
