Answer:

The octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. When atoms have fewer than eight electrons, they tend to react and form more stable compounds. When discussing the octet rule, we do not consider d or f electrons.

Determine the theoretical yield of HCl if 60.0 g of BC13 and 37.5 g of H20 are reacted according to the following balanced react

Pie

Answer : The theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $BCl_3$ = 60 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 37.5 g

Molar mass of $BCl_3$ = 117 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $HCl$ = 36.5 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $BCl_3$ and $H_2O$ .

$\text{Moles of }BCl_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }BCl_3}{\text{Molar mass of }BCl_3}=\frac{60g}{117g/mole}=0.513moles$

$\text{Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2O}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{37.5g}{18g/mole}=2.083moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$BCl_3(g)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3BO_3(s)+3HCl(g)$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react with 3 mole of $H_2O$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react with $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $H_2O$

From this we conclude that, $H_2O$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $BCl_3$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $HCl$ .

As, 1 mole of $BCl_3$ react to give 3 moles of $HCl$

So, 0.513 moles of $BCl_3$ react to give $3\times 0.513=1.539$ moles of $HCl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $HCl$ .

$\text{Mass of }HCl=\text{Moles of }HCl\times \text{Molar mass of }HCl$

$\text{Mass of }HCl=(1.539mole)\times (36.5g/mole)=56.1735g$

Therefore, the theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

A stain is made up of molecules that do not have charged regions. What soap/solvent combination should I use?Are there multiple?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Yes, there are multiple combinations.

Firstly, a solvent or soap combination could be used as a polar solvent with soap. In this way, the nonpolar region of the soap molecules would mix directly with the stain while the solvent would surround the soap-stain micelle.

Secondly, another method or way is to have a combination of a nonpolar solvent with no soap. In this method, however, it is the solvent that would mix directly with the stain.

A solution is prepared by mixing 93.0 mL of 5.00 M HCl and 37.0 mL of 8.00 M HNO3. Water is then added until the final volume is

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

$[H^{+}] = 0.761 \frac{mol}{L}$

$[OH^{-}]=1.33X10^{-14}\frac{mol}{L}$

$pH = 0.119$

Explanation:

HCl and HNO₃ both dissociate completely in water. A simple method is to determine the number of moles of proton from both these acids and dividing it by the total volume of solution.

$n_{H^{+} } from HCl = [HCl](\frac{mol}{L}). V_{HCl}(L) \\ n_{H^{+} } from HNO_{3} = [HNO_{3}](\frac{mol}{L}). V_{HNO_{3}}(L)$

Here, n is the number of moles and V is the volume. From the given data moles can be calculated as follows

$n_{H^{+} } from HCl = (5.00)(0.093)$

$n_{H^{+} } from HCl = 0.465 mol$

$n_{H^{+} } from HNO_{3} = (8.00)(0.037)$

$n_{H^{+} } from HNO_{3} = 0.296 mol$

$n_{H^{+}(total) } = 0.296 + 0.465$

$n_{H^{+}(total) } = 0.761 mol$

For molar concentration of hydrogen ions:

$[H^{+}] = \frac{n_{H^{+}}(mol)}{V(L)}$

$[H^{+}] = \frac{0.761}{1.00}$

$[H^{+}] = 0.761 \frac{mol}{L}$

From dissociation of water (Kw = 1.01 X 10⁻¹⁴ at 25°C) [OH⁻] can be determined as follows

$K_{w} = [H^{+} ][OH^{-} ]$

$[OH^{-}]=\frac{Kw}{[H^{+}] }$

$[OH^{-}]=\frac{1.01X10-^{-14}}{0.761 }$

$[OH^{-}]=1.33X10^{-14}\frac{mol}{L}$

The pH of the solution can be measured by the following formula:

$pH = -log[H^{+} ]$

$pH = -log(0.761)$

$pH = 0.119$
