What is the formula mass for sodium chloride?

1 answer:

3 0

Atomic mass of sodium is 22.9 g/mol
atomic mass of chloride is 35.45 g/mol
sodium chloride is 22.99 + 35.45= 58.44 g/mol

Kernels of corn are heated and become popcorn. Why is this a chemical change?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

When popcorn is popped, liquid inside the kernel is changed to steam. Pressure from the steam builds up inside the kernel. When the pressure reached a critical stage the kernel pops turning itself inside out. This is a physical change.

What is one substance that is 100x more acidic than baking soda

daser333 [38]

Answer:

An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this, when an acid is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is shifted. Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution. This kind of solution is acidic.

Calculate the ph at of a solution of sodium hypochlorite . note that hypochlorous acid is a weak acid with a of . round your ans

loris [4]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the pH at 25°C of a 0.39 M solution of sodium hypochlorite NaClO. Note that hypochlorous acid HClO is a weak acid with a pKa of 7.50. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

Answer: The pH of the solution is 10.4

Explanation:

We are given:

Molarity of sodium hypochlorite = 0.39 M

$pK_a$ of HClO = 7.50

We know that:

$pK_a=-\log K_a$

$K_a$ of HClO = $10^{-7.50}=3.16\times 10^{-8}$

To calculate the base dissociation constant for the given acid dissociation constant, we use the equation:

$K_w=K_b\times K_a$

where,

$K_w$ = Ionic product of water = $10^{-14}$

$K_a$ = Acid dissociation constant = $3.16\times 10^{-8}$

$K_b$ = Base dissociation constant

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$10^{-14}=3.16\times 10^{-8}\times K_b\\\\K_b=\frac{10^{-14}}{3.16\times 10^{-8}}=3.16\times 10^{-7}$

The chemical equation for the reaction of hypochlorite ion with water follows:

$ClO^-+H_2O\rightarrow HClO+OH^-$

Initial: 0.39

At eqllm: 0.39-x x x

The expression of $K_b$ for above equation follows:

$K_b=\frac{[HClO][OH^-]}{[ClO^-]}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$3.16\times 10^{-7}=\frac{x\times x}{(0.39-x)}\\\\x=-0.00035,0.00035$

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative

To calculate the pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

We are given:

$[OH^-]=0.00035M$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pOH=-\log (0.00035)=3.6$

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pH+pOH=14\\pH=14-3.6=10.4$

Hence, the pH of the solution is 10.4

Identify each of the following solids as molecular, ionic, or atomic.

Kisachek [45]

Answer :

(A) Br₂ (s) : molecular solids

(B) AgCl (s) : ionic solids

(C) S (s) : atomic solids

(D) CH₄ (s) : molecular solids

Explanation :

Molecular solids : It is defined as the solids in which they are held together by covalent forces, dipole interactions as attractive forces etc.

Ionic solids : It is defined as the solids in which the atoms composed with oppositely charged ions.

Atomic solids : It is defined as the solids in which the molecules are held together by covalent forces and also includes pure substance.

(A) Br₂ (s)

It is molecular solids because they are held together by covalent forces.

(B) AgCl (s)

It is ionic solids because in this atoms composed with oppositely charged ions.

(C) S (s)

It is atomic solids because it is a pure substance.

(D) CH₄ (s)

It is molecular solids because they are held together by covalent forces.
