How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution

Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>

Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL

Answer : The time passed in years is $2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

Explanation :

Half-life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{5730\text{ years}}$

$k=1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{ years}^{-1}$

t = time passed by the sample = ?

a = initial amount of the reactant disintegrate = 15.3

a - x = amount left after decay process = 14.8

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t=\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{15.3}{14.8}$

$t=274.64\text{ years}=2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

Therefore, the time passed in years is $2.74\times 10^2\text{ years}$

What is the difference between pure and applied chemistry?

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The major difference between pure and applied chemistry is the purpose and intent of the study.

Pure chemistry deals with the study of matter, matter transformations, and interactions between the different materials of the world, for only the sake of gaining empirical knowledge about the various substances that exist in the world. It does not really seek to apply this knowledge to do anything industrial.

Applied chemistry is the study of chemistry with the aim of utilizing this knowledge to solve the various problems that man faces. This approach of study is not for knowledge sake alone, rather it is for industrial application
