Answer:

A. Acidic

B. Neutral

C. Basic

D. Acidic

E. Basic

Explanation:

The reaction of salts with water to give aqueous solutions which are either acidic, basic or neutral is known as salt hydrolysis. Salts that are produced from the reaction of strong acids and weak bases give acidic solutions. Salts that are produced the reaction between weak acids and strong bases give basic solutions. Neutral solutions are obtained from salts produced bynthe reaction of strong acids and strong bases.

The hydrolysis of the given salts are shown below:

A. AlCl₃ + 3 H₂O ---> 3 HCl + Al(OH)₃

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HCl is a strong acid while Al(OH)₃ is a weak base.

B. NaBr + H₂O ----> HBr + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be neutral since HBr is a strong acid and NaOH is strong base as well.

C. NaClO + H₂O ----> HClO + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since HClO is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

D. CH₃NH₃NO₃ + H₂O ----> HNO₃ + CH₃NH₂ + H₂O

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HNO₃ is a strong acid while CH₃NH₂ is a weak base.

E. Na₂SO₃ + 2 H₂O ----> H₂SO₃ + 2 NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since H₂SO₃ is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

Acetylsalicylic acid (C9H8O4) is a monoprotic acid commonly known as aspirin. A typical aspirin tablet, however, contains only a

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

6 grains

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is;

C9H8O4(aq) + NaOH (aq) ------>C9H7O4Na(aq) + H2O(l)

Amount of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 0.1466 M × 14.40/1000 L = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Given that aspirin and NaOH react in a mole ratio of 1:1 from the balanced reaction equation above, the number of moles of aspirin reacted is 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Hence mass of aspirin reacted = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles × 180.2 g/mol = 0.38 g

If 1 grain = 0.0648 g

x grains = 0.38 g

x= 0.38 g/0.0648 g

x= 6 grains

Answer:

Q.1

Given-

Volume of solution-1 L

Molarity of solution -6M

to find gms of AgNO3-?

Molarity = number of moles of solute/volume of solution in litre

number of moles of solute = 6×1= 6moles

one moles of AgNO3 weighs 169.87 g

so mass of 6 moles of AgNO3 = 169.87×6=1019.22

so you need 1019.22 g of AgNO3 to make 1.0 L of a 6.0 M solution

If the reaction N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) --> 2 NH3 (g) has the concentrations 1.1 M for nitrogen, 0.75 M for hydrogen and 0.25 M fo

Luba_88 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of $K_c$ is 0.136 and is reactant favored.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{c}$

For the chemical reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen follows the equation:

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)$

The expression for the $K_{c}$ is given as:

$K_{c}=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2][H_2]^3}$

We are given:

$[NH_3]=0.25M$

$[H_2]=0.75M$

$[N_2]=1.1M$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_c=\frac{(0.25)^2}{1.1\times (0.75)^3}$

$K_c=0.135$

There are 3 conditions:

When $K_{c}>1$ ; the reaction is product favored.
When $K_{c}$ ; the reaction is reactant favored.
When $K_{c}=1$ ; the reaction is in equilibrium.

For the given reaction, the value of $K_c$ is less than 1. Thus, the reaction is reactant favored.

Hence, the value of $K_c$ is 0.136 and is reactant favored.

Keisha makes a table to compare plasmas and solids. Which labels belong in the cells marked X and Y?

rewona [7]

Answer: X: High and Y: High

Explanation: When comparing plasma with solids it is seen that solids are more denser than plasma and has less kinetic energy as compared to plasma.

So among the difference plasma will have high kinetic energy and solids will have high density in comparison with each other.
