Why is a neutral solution neutral?

Chemistry
2 answers:
notka56 [123]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A neutral solution is neutral if it has the same concentration of hydrogen ions as the hydroxide ions.

Explanation:

Hydrogen ions have a positive charge [H+] while Hydroxide ions have a negative charge [OH-]. Given that a solution has equal amounts of both Hydrogen and Hydroxide ions, the charges cancel each other out resulting in a neutral solution.

What is one way to test whether an unknown solution is acidic or basic?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: There are several ways. The first that comes to mind is a pH meter. A pH electrode Is lowered into the solution, and (Assuming) the pH Meter has been properly calibrated, and the temperature of the solution is set to the calibration of the Meter, the pH can be read directly from an analogue scale or digital readout. Below 7 is acidic, 7 is Neutral, (like Pure Water), and over 7 is Alkaline, or Basic.

A useful, but less accurate method is the use of any number of “pH Indicator Solutions”, which are essentially a type of various colored dyes that change color within differing pH ranges. Usually, if the pH is unknown, a small amount of solution is removed from the container and tested separately - in a “well plate”, or similar method.

These types of dyes, or Indicator Solutions, can be dried upon strips of “pH indicator Paper”, which, depending upon the type can be very useful when carrying out more precisely arrived at pH tests like Titration.

Just to see if a solution is “Acid” or “Base”, Litmus paper is used; “a Red color shows Acidity, and a Blue color, a Base”; ergo, “An Acid Solution will turn Litmus Paper, Red”.

What quantity of heat is required to raise the temperature of 460g of aluminum from 15C to 85C?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Q = 28.9 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Aluminium, m = 460 g

Initial temperature, T_i=15^{\circ} C

Final temperature, T_f=85^{\circ}

We know that the specific heat of Aluminium is 0.9 J/g°C. The heat required to raise the temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_f-T_i)\\\\Q=460\ g\times 0.9\ J/g^{\circ} C\times (85-15)^{\circ} C\\\\Q=28980\ J\\\\\text{or}\\\\Q=28.9\ kJ

So, 28.9 kJ of heat is required to raise the temperature.

A fire is an example of ________________ reaction, because heat is _____________ the system.
Over [174]

d. exothermic; leaving

  • Exothermic reaction is a reaction that produces heat in the reaction whereas the endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is required to be given in the reaction to produce product.
  • Fire is an exothermic reaction.
  • A fire is produced due to oxidation of the fuel in the form of liquid or gas.
  • A fire is an example of combustion.
  • In fire both heat and light are left from fire due to the oxidation of fuel.

Hence, option d. exothermic; leaving is the correct option.

Ammonia, NH3, is a typical ingredient in household cleaners. It is produced through a combination reaction involving N2(g) and H
GalinKa [24]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3

We are given the amount of hydrogen gas to be used in the reaction. This will be the starting point of the calculations.

24.0 mol H2 (2 mol NH3 / 3 mol H2 ) = 16 mol NH3

Therefore, ammonia produced from the reaction given is 16 moles.
