Answer:

$M=0.250M$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molarity of a solution is computed by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of solution in liters, we first need to compute the moles of solute knowing that the molar mass of calcium hydroxide is 74.1 g/mol as follows:

$n=1.85g*\frac{1mol}{74.1g}=0.0250mol$

Next, since the 100-mL solution is also expressed in liters by 0.100 L, we directly compute the molarity as shown below:

$M=\frac{0.0250mol}{0.100L}\\\\M=0.250M$

Which is expressed in molar units that are mol/L.

Best regards!

Which of the following must be true about a reaction if it is only spontaneous at high temperatures?

Anastaziya [24]

1) Answer is: It is endothermic, with both positive enthalpy and entropy changes.

Endothermic reactions (ΔH>0) that increase the entropy of the system (ΔS>0) are spontaneous at high temperatures.

The change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG), at constant temperature and pressure, is: ΔG=ΔH−TΔS.

ΔH is the change in enthalpy.

ΔS is change in entropy.

T is temperature of the system.

When ΔG is negative, a reaction (occurs without the addition of external energy) will be spontaneous (exergonic).

2) Answer is: It is endothermic and heat is added to the system.

There are two types of reaction:

1) endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases, ΔH>0).

2) exothermic reaction (chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs).

For example, the breakdown of ozone is an endothermic process. Ozone has lower energy than molecular oxygen (O₂) and oxygen atom, so ozone need energy to break bond between oxygen atoms.

3) Answer is: For every two AB produced, the reaction requires three A.

Balanced chemical reaction: 3A + B → 2AB.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(A) : n(AB) = 3 : 2.

n(A) = 3 · n(AB) ÷ 2.

A and B are reactants and AB is product of balanced chemical reaction.

For every two AB produced, the reaction requires one B.

4) Answer is:

the amount of required activation energy = potential energy of the B - potential energy of the reactants A.

the enthalpy change of the reaction = potential energy of the products C - potential energy of the reactants A.

For all chemical reaction some energy is required and that energy is called activation energy (energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start).

This is endothermic reaction.

For any spontaneous process, universe entropy intensifies is known as the __________ law of thermodynamics.

FrozenT [24]

For any spontaneous process, universe entropy intensifies is known as the second law of thermodynamics.

<h3>What is entropy?</h3>

Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a system.

The entropy of a system generally increases for any spontaneous process.

This is according to the second law of thermodynamics.

In conclusion, the entropy of a system is the a measure of randomness of the system.

Titanium is a transition metal used in many alloys because it is extremely strong and lightweight. Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

a) 226.6 grams of Cl₂

b) 19.2 grams of C

c) 303.2 grams of TiCl₄ and 70.4 grams of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is the following:

TiO₂(s) + C(s) + 2 Cl₂(g) → TiCl₄(s) + CO₂(g)

(a) What mass of Cl₂ gas is needed to react with 1.60 mol TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, 1 mol of TiO₂ reacts with 2 moles of Cl₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is 2 mol Cl₂/1 mol TiO₂. We multiply this ratio by the moles of TiO₂ we have to calculate the moles of Cl₂ we need:

1.60 mol TiO₂ x 2 mol Cl₂/1 mol TiO₂ = 3.2 mol Cl₂

Now, we convert from moles to mass by using the molecular weight (MW) of Cl₂:

MW(Cl₂) = 35.4 g/mol x 2 = 70.8 g/mol

mass of Cl₂= 3.2 mol x 70.8 g/mol = 226.6 g

<em>Therefore, 226.6 grams of Cl₂ are needed to react with 1.6 mol of TiO₂. </em>

(b) What mass of C is needed to react with 1.60 mol of TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, 1 mol of TiO₂ reacts with 1 moles of C(s). So, the stoichiometric ratio is 1 mol C/1 mol TiO₂. We multiply this ratio by the moles of TiO₂ we have to calculate the moles of C(s) we need:

1.60 mol TiO₂ x 1 mol C(s)/1 mol TiO₂ = 1.60 mol C(s)

So, we convert the moles of C(s) to grams as follows:

MW(C) = 12 g/mol

1.60 mol x 12 g/mol = 19.2 g C(s)

<em>Therefore, a mass of 19.2 grams of C is needed to react with 1.60 mol of TiO₂. </em>

(c) What is the mass of all the products formed by reaction with 1.60 mol of TiO₂?

From the chemical equation, we can notice that 1 mol of TiO₂ produces 1 mol of TiCl₄ and 1 mol of CO₂. So, from 1.60 moles of TiO₂, 1 mol of each product will be produced:

1 mol TiO₂/1 mol TiCl₄ ⇒ 1.60 mol TiO₂/1.60 mol TiCl₄

1 mol TiO₂/1 mol CO₂ ⇒ 1.60 mol TiO₂/1.60 mol CO₂

Finally, we convert the moles to grams by using the molecular weight of each compound:

MW(TiCl₄) = 47.9 g/mol Ti + (35.4 g/mol x 4 Cl) = 189.5 g/mol

1.60 mol x 189.5 g/mol = 303.2 g

MW(CO₂) = 12 g/mol C + (16 g/mol x 2 O) = 44 g/mol

1.60 mol x 44 g/mol = 70.4 g

<em>Therefore, from the reaction of 1.60 mol of TiO₂ are formed 303.2 grams of TiCl₄ and 70.4 grams of CO₂.</em>
