Determine the resulting pH when 75 mL of 0.05M HBr is reacted with 74 mL of 0.075 M KOH

Answer:

pH = 12.08

Explanation:

  • H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O

First we <u>calculate how many moles of each substance were added</u>, using <em>the given volume and concentration</em>:

  • HBr ⇒ 0.05 M * 75 mL = 3.75 mmol HBr
  • KOH ⇒ 0.075 M * 74 mL = 5.55 mmol KOH

As HBr is a strong acid, it dissociates completely into H⁺ and Br⁻ species. Conversely, KOH dissociates completely into OH⁻ and K⁺ species.

As there are more OH⁻ moles than H⁺ moles (5.55 vs 3.75), we <u>calculate how many OH⁻ moles remain after the reaction</u>:

  • 5.55 - 3.75 = 1.8 mmoles OH⁻

With that<em> number of moles and the volume of the mixture</em>, we <u>calculate [OH⁻]</u>:

  • [OH⁻] = 1.8 mmol / (75 mL + 74 mL) = 0.0121 M

With [OH⁻], we <u>calculate the pOH</u>:

  • pOH = -log[OH⁻] = 1.92

With the pOH, we <u>calculate the pH</u>:

  • pH = 14 - pOH
  • pH = 12.08

Click oil basics to explore the natural resources needed for the production of plastics. use the information to answer the quest
GaryK [48]

The ingredients that is important in making plastics is natural gas plant liquids.

Natural gas liquids (NGLs) are components of natural gas which are separated from the gas state in the form of liquids. They many applications including; plastic production, inputs for petrochemical plants, they are also burned for space heat and cooking, and can also be blended into vehicle fuel.

In the manufacturing of plastics, come components of NGLs are used. And for this case, ethane. Ethane is used in the production of ethylene which are passed through pressure and catalyst to be turned to plastics like polythene.

The reason why they are mostly used in the manufacturing plastics than other resources like crude oil is that it is much cleaner.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The expression to calculate the mass of the reactant is m = \frac{1.080kJ}{31.2kJ/g}

Explanation:

<em>The amount of heat released is equal to the amount of heat released per gram of reactant times the mass of the reactant.</em> To keep to coherence between units we need to transform 1,080 J to kJ. We do so with proportions:

1,080J.\frac{1kJ}{10^{3}J } =1.080kJ

Then,

1.080kJ=31.2\frac{kJ}{g} .m\\m = \frac{1.080kJ}{31.2kJ/g}

Given the balanced ionic equation representing the reaction in an operating voltaic cell: zn(s) + cu2+(aq) → zn2+(aq) + cu(s) th
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: from the Zn anode to the Cu cathode


Justification:


1) The reaction given is: Zn(s) + Cu₂⁺ (aq) -> Zn²⁺ (aq) +Cu(s)


2) From that, you can see the Zn(s) is losing electrons, since it is being oxidized (from 0 to 2⁺), while Cu²⁺, is gaining electrons, since it is being reduced (from 2⁺ to 0).


3) Then, you can already tell that electrons go from Zn to Cu.


4) The plate where oxidation occurs is called anode, and the plate where reduction occus is called cathode.


So you get that the electrons flow from the anode (Zn) to the cathode (Cu).


Always oxidation occurs at the anode, and reduction occurs at the cathode.

What is the volume of a 5.30g piece of aluminum? The density for aluminum is 2.70gmL.
Blizzard [7]

The volume of the piece of aluminum is 1.96 mL

Explanation:

Density is the relationship of the mass of a substance and its volume.

In this case, the mass of aluminum is 5.30 g and the density is 2.70 g/mL

The formula to apply is;

D=M/V where D is density in g/mL, M is mass in g and V is volume in mL

2.70=5.30/V

V=5.30/2.70 =1.96 mL
