Answer:
70 mL of 5% HCl and 30 mL of 15% HCl
Explanation:
We will designate x to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 5% HCl, and y to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 15% HCl. Since the percentage of the final solution is 8%, we can write the following expression:
5x + 15y = 8
Since x and y are fractions of a total, they must equal one:
x + y = 1
This is a system of two equations with two unknowns. We will proceed to solve for x. First, an expression for y is found:
y = 1 - x
This expression is substituted into the first equation and we solve for x.
5x + 15(1 - x) = 8
5x+ 15 - 15x = 8
-10x = -7
x = 7/10 = 0.7
We then calculate the value of y:
y = 1 - x = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3
Thus 0.7 of the 100 mL will be the 5% HCl solution, so the volume of 5% HCl we need is:
(100 mL)(0.7) = 70 mL
Similarly, the volume of 15% HCl we need is:
(100 mL)(0.3) = 30 mL
Answer:
Molality = 8.57 m
Explanation:
Given data:
Molarity of solution = 5.73 M
density = 0.9327 g/mL
Molality of solution = ?
Solution:
Molality = moles of solute / kg of solvent.
Kg of solvent:
Mass of 1 L solution = density× volume
Mass of 1 L solution = 0.9327 g/mL × 1000 mL
Mass of 1 L solution = 932.7 g
Mass of solute:
Mass of 1 L = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 5.73 mol × 46.068 g/mol
Mass = 263.97 g
Mass of solvent:
Mass of solvent = mass of solution - mass of solute
Mass of solvent = 932.7 g - 263.97 g
Mass of solvent = 668.73 g
In Kg = 668.73 /1000 = 0.6687 Kg
Molality:
Molality = number of moles of solute / mass of solvent in Kg
Molality = 5.73 mol / 0.6687 Kg
Molality = 8.57 m
Answer: He could add a base to the pool to neutralize the acid.
Explanation:
Chlorine is used to disinfect the pools as it produces hypochlorous acid in water. This hypochlorous acid is unstable and gives hydrochloric acid and nascent oxygen which is used to disinfect.
The excess acid is neutralized by adding base which produces salt and water and thus decrease the acidity.
Adding more acid would increase the acidity further.
