Answer:

69.55 (w/w) %

Explanation:

When NaHCO3 reacts with an acid HA, the reaction that occurs is:

NaHCO3 + HA → H2O + NaA + CO2

<em>Where 1 mole of NaHCO3 produce 1 mole of CO2</em>

<em />

Thus, we need to convert the mass of CO2 to moles using its molar mass (44g/mol). Then, based on the chemical equation, moles of CO2 produced are equal to moles of NaHCO3 in the mixture. With its molar mass -84g/mol- we can find the mass of NaHCO3 and mass percent:

<em>Moles CO2:</em>

0.561g * (1mol / 44g) = 0.01275 moles CO2 = Moles NaHCO3.

<em>Mass NaHCO3:</em>

0.01275 moles * (84g/mol) = 1.071g NaHCO3

<em>Mass percent:</em>

1.071g NaHCO3 / 1.54g sample * 100

<h3>69.55 (w/w) %</h3>

If 5.0 moles of C3H8 react, how many molecules of water are formed?
artcher [175]
Balance Chemical Equation for combustion of Propane is as follow,

                         C₃H₈  +  5 O₂    →    3 CO₂  +  4 H₂O

According to equation,

              1 mole of C₃H₈ on combustion gives  =  4 moles of H₂O
So,
        5 moles of C₃H₈ on combustion will give  =  X moles of H₂O

Solving for X,
                                    X  =  (5 mol × 4 mol) ÷ 1 mole

                                    X  =  20 moles of H₂O

Calculating number of molecules for 20 moles of H₂O,
As,
                        1 mole of H₂O contains  =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules
So,
                20 moles of H₂O will contain  =  X molecules

Solving for X,
                                 X  =  (20 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules) ÷ 1 mol

                                 X  =  1.20 ×10²⁵ Molecules of H₂O

Calculate the concentration of an aqueous solution of naoh that has a ph of 11.50
Reika [66]
NaOH is a strong base and complete dissociation into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions. 
Therefore [NaOH] = [OH⁻]
To calculate the [OH⁻], we can first find the pOH as NaOH is a basic solution.
pH + pOH = 14
Since pH = 11.50
pOH = 14 - 11.50
pOH = 2.50
We can calculate [OH⁻] by knowing pOH 
pOH = -log[OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = antilog(-pOH)
[OH⁻] = 3.2 x 10⁻³ M
therefore [NaOH] = 3.2 x 10⁻³ M
