Answer:

9.85mL

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 —> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

From the balanced equation above,

nA (mole of the acid) = 2

nB (mole of the base) = 1

Data obtained from the question include:

Vb (volume of the base) =?

Mb (Molarity of base) = 0.155 M

Va (volume of the acid) = 28.8 mL

Ma (Molarity of acid) = 0.106 M

Using MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB, the volume of calcium hydroxide (i.e the base) can be obtain as follow:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

0.106 x 28.8 / 0.155 x Vb = 2/1

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

2 x 0.155 x Vb = 0.106 x 28.8

Divide both side by 2 x 0.155

Vb = (0.106 x 28.8) / (2 x 0.155)

Vb = 9.85mL

Therefore, the Volume of calcium hydroxide is 9.85mL

Why is a wire used to connect the electrodes in an electrochemical cell?

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

D. So electrons can flow from one electrode to another

Explanation:

An electrochemical cell is any cell in which electricity is produced by reason of a chemical change.

An electrochemical cell consists of two electrodes, these two electrodes are connected using a wire.

Usually, electrons flow from one electrode to another via this wire thereby enabling the electrochemical processes of oxidation and reduction in the cell to proceed effectively.

Following the instructions in your lab manual, you have titrated a 25.00 mL sample of 0.0100 M KIO3 with a solution of Na2S2O3 o

vivado [14]

Answer:

For 1: The amount of potassium iodate that were titrated is $2.5\times 10^{-4}$ moles

For 2: The amount of sodium thiosulfate required is $1.25\times 10^{-4}$ moles

Explanation:

For 1:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of $KIO_3$ solution = 0.0100 M

Volume of solution = 25 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0100M=\frac{\text{Moles of }KIO_3\times 1000}{25}\\\\\text{Moles of }KIO_3=\frac{0.0100\times 25}{1000}=0.00025mol$

Hence, the amount of potassium iodate that were titrated is $2.5\times 10^{-4}$ moles

For 2:

The chemical equation for the reaction of potassium iodate and sodium thiosulfate follows:

$2KIO_3+Na_2S_2O_3\rightarrow K_2S_2O_3+2NaIO_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of potassium iodate reacts with 1 mole of sodium thiosulfate

So, 0.00025 moles of potassium iodate will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00025=0.000125mol$ of sodium thiosulfate

Hence, the amount of sodium thiosulfate required is $1.25\times 10^{-4}$ moles
