Answer:
(iii) A has pH greater than 7 and B has pH less than 7
Explanation:
Phenolphthalein is a common indicator in acid base titrations. It turns pink in basic conditions and turns colorless in acidic conditions. Thus on addition of solution A it becomes pink so A should be basic having pH more than 7. On addition of B , it turn out to be colorless means that B is an acidic solution having pH less than 7.
KOH is a strong base and HBr is a strong acid and completely dissociates.
The balanced equation for the reaction is;
KOH + HBr ---> KBr + H₂O
Stoichiometry of acid to base is 1:1
The number of KOH moles reacted - 0.50 M / 1000 mL/L x 48.0 mL = 0.024 mol
number of HBr moles reacted - 0.25 M/ 1000 mL/L x 96.0 mL = 0.024 mol
the number of H⁺ ions are equal to number of OH⁻ ions.
Then the solution is neutral.
pH of neutral solutions at 25 °C is 7.
Therefore pH is 7
Answer:
Increasing Surface Area
Explanation:
A greater surface area (meaning more, smaller particles) allows for more opportunity for particles to collide. On the other hand, decreasing temperature and removing a catalyst would only decrease the number of collisions, and the clumping option doesn't make much sense. Hope this helps!
Answer:
- <em>During the polymerization of a 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule,</em> <u>19 molecules of water are released.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
In simple terms, <em>cellulose </em>is the biopolymer formed by many glucose units. This is cellulose is the polymer and glucose is the monomer.
To have a <em>20 monomer-long cellulose molecule</em>, 20 monomers have been chemically bonded by reacting 19 times, as it is explained in the next paragrpahs, and so 19 molecules of water have been released.
You can imaging the polymerization process as a step-by-step reaction in which the first step is the condensation reaction of one glucose molelecule to produce a 2 monomer-long chain, with the release of one molecule of water: the second step would be the condensation reaction between the 2 monomer-long chain with another glucose molecule, with the release of an additional molecule of water, and so on, until 19 condensation reactions happen, to obtain the 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule.
Condensation is the loss of water in a chemical reaction.
When two glucose molecules react together, condensation occurs. One OH group from each glucose molecule come together, the OH from one glucose molecule combines with the H part of the OH from the other glucose molecule, to form H₂O (water that is released).
The two glucose molecules (monomers) will form one bigger molecule where the two glucose monomers are bonded through the oxygen atom that did not form part of the water molecule released.
Then, a 20-monomer chain means 19 condenstation reactions, with the release of 19 molecules of water.
