Complete Question:
Ions to calculate the p-values: Na⁺, Cl⁻, and NH₄⁺
Answer:
pNa = 0.307
pCl = 0.093
pNH₄ = 0.503
Explanation:
The p-value is calculated by the antilog of the concentration of the substance of interest. For example, pH = -log[H⁺]. Thus, first, let's find the ions concentration.
Both substances are salts that solubilize completely, thus, by the solution reactions:
NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻
NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻
So, for both reactions the stoichiometry is 1:1:1 and the concentration of the ions is equal to the concentration of the salts.
[Na⁺] = 0.493 M
[Cl⁻] = 0.493 + 0.314 = 0.807 M
[NH₄⁺] = 0.314 M
The p-values are:
pNa = -log[Na⁺] = -log(0.493) = 0.307
pCl = -log[Cl⁻] = -log(0.807) = 0.093
pNH₄ = -log[NH₄⁺] = -log(0.314) = 0.503
Usually it is the CuSO4 that is the limiting reagent.
<span>if all of the color of the solution was gone, but there was still some zinc metal mixed in with the copper metal produced, then Zn is the excess reagent </span>
<span>f all of the color of the solution was not gone, but there was no zinc metal left in with the blue copper solution , then Zn is the limiting reagent Hope this helps.</span>
<span>For equation A + 3B + 2C ---> 2D,
1 mole of A will produce 2 moles of D
3 moles of B will produce 2 moles of D, so 1 mole of B will produce 2/3 moles of D
2 moles of C will produce 2 moles of D, so 1 mole of C will produce 1 mole of D
If only 1 mole of B is present, only 2/3 moles of D can be produced. This is regardless of the number of moles of A and C. B is the limiting reactant and the maximum number of moles of D expected is 2/3.</span>
