Answer:

pH ≈ 6.3

Explanation:

To calculate the pH of an aqueous solution, you need to know the hydronium ion (H₃O+) concentration in moles per liter (molarity). The pH is then calculated using the expression:

pH = - log [H₃O+]

Since the solution has an H₃O+ ion concentration of 5.2 × 10⁻⁷ M, we can plug that in and solve:

pH = - log [5.2 × 10⁻⁷]

pH = 6.28

Assuming the volumes are additive, what is the [Cl−] in a solution obtained by mixing 297 mL of 0.675 M KCl and 664 mL of 0.338

Elden [556K]

Answer: The concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Explanation:

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

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For KCl:

Molarity of KCl solution = 0.675 M

Volume of solution = 297 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.675=\frac{\text{Moles of KCl}\times 1000}{297}\\\\\text{Moles of KCl}=\frac{(0.675mol/L\times 297)}{1000}=0.200mol$

1 mole of KCl produces 1 mole of chloride ions and 1 mole of potassium ion

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = 0.200 moles

For magnesium chloride:

Molarity of magnesium chloride solution = 0.338 M

Volume of solution = 664 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.338=\frac{\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times 1000}{664}\\\\\text{Moles of }MgCl_2=\frac{(0.338mol/L\times 664)}{1000}=0.224mol$

1 mole of magnesium chloride produces 2 moles of chloride ions and 1 mole of magnesium ion

Moles of chloride ions in magnesium chloride = $(2\times 0.224)=0.448mol$

Calculating the chloride ion concentration, we use equation 1:

Total moles of chloride ions in the solution = (0.200 + 0.448) moles = 0.648 moles

Total volume of the solution = (297 + 664) mL = 961 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=\frac{0.648mol\times 1000}{961}\\\\\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=0.674M$

Hence, the concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Calculate the maximum amount of useful work that can be obtained and comment on the spontaneity for the reaction at 25C :

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

$1.41 *10^{3} kJ/mol$

Explanation:

First, we find in the tables the ΔH of formation of each compound. As you can see in the (image 1)

Then we solve the ecuation for ΔH°reaction

ΔH°reaction=∑ΔH°f(products)−∑ΔH°f(Reactants)

ΔH°reaction= (-2* 393.5 - 2*285.8) - (52.4 + 0) kJ/mol

ΔH°reaction = -1.41 *10^3 kJ/mol

Determine whether or not each ion contributes to water hardness.

Virty [35]

Answer: The ion that contribute to water hardness are:

--> a. Ca2+

--> b. (HCO)3^- and

--> c. Mg2+

While K+ DOES NOT contribute to water hardness.

Explanation:

WATER in chemistry is known as a universal solvent. This is so because it is polar in nature and dissolves most inorganic solutes and some polar organic solutes to form aqueous solutions. It is composed of elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the combined ratio of 2:1.

Water is said to be HARD if it does not lather readily with soap. There are two types of water hardness:

--> Permanent hardness: This is mainly due to the presence of CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM ions in the form of soluble tetraoxosulphate(VI) and chlorides. These ions are removed by adding washing soda or caustic soda.

--> Temporary hardness: This is due to the presence of calcium HYDROGENTRIOXOCARBONATES. It can be removed by boiling and using slaked lime.

Therefore from the above given ions, Ca2+,(HCO)3^- and Mg2+ contributes to water hardness.

for the given reaction, what volume of o2 would be required to react with 4.8 l of co , measured at the same temperature and pre

SVEN [57.7K]

We can see that 2 moles of The no react with 1 mole of O2 using this equation. 4.8 L NO x 1 L O2 / 2 L NO = 2.4 L of O2 are needed at constant pressure and temperature.

What is an example of pressure?

One can see a simple illustration of pressure by using a knife against a few fruit. If you press the flat side of the knife against the fruit, the top won't be cut. The force is spread more than a wide area (low pressure).

What are different types of pressure?

The physical pressure exerted to an object is referred to as pressure. Per unit area, a parallel force is applied to the surface of the objects. F/A (Force per Area) is the basic formula for pressure.
