Answer:

8.28 MPa

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Radius (r) = 2×10¯³ m

Force applied (F) = 104 N

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the area of the nail (i.e circle). This can be obtained as follow:

Radius (r) = 2×10¯³ m

Area (A) of circle =?

Pi (π) = 3.14

A = πr²

A = 3.14 × (2×10¯³)²

A = 3.14 × 4×10¯⁶

A = 1.256×10¯⁵ m²

Next, we shall determine the pressure. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied (F) = 104 N

Area (A) = 1.256×10¯⁵ m²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F / A

P = 104 / 1.256×10¯⁵

P = 8280254.78 Nm¯²

Finally, we shall convert 8280254.78 Nm¯² to MPa. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Nm¯² = 1×10¯⁶ MPa

Therefore,

8280254.78 Nm¯² = 8280254.78 Nm¯² × 1×10¯⁶ MPa / 1 Nm¯²

8280254.78 Nm¯² = 8.28 MPa

Thus, the pressure exerted on the wall is 8.28 MPa

Your job is to determine the concentration of ammonia in a commercial window cleaner. In the titration of a 25.0 mL sample of th

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The initial concentration of ammonia is 0.14 M and the pH of the solution at equivalence point is 5.20

<u>Explanation:</u>

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

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

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.164 M

Volume of solution = 23.8 mL = 0.0238 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.164M=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{0.0238L}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=(0.146mol/L\times 0.0238L)=0.0035mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonia and HCl follows:

$NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4^++Cl^-$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mole of ammonia

So, 0.0035 moles of HCl will react with = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0035=0.0035mol$ of ammonia

Calculating the initial concentration of ammonia by using equation 1:

Moles of ammonia = 0.0035 moles

Volume of solution = 25 mL = 0.025 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Initial concentration of ammonia}=\frac{0.0035mol}{0.025L}=0.14M$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of ammonia produces 1 mole of ammonium ion

So, 0.0035 moles of ammonia will react with = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0035=0.0035mol$ of ammonium ion

Calculating the concentration of ammonium ion by using equation 1:

Moles of ammonium ion = 0.0035 moles

Volume of solution = [23.8 + 25] mL = 48.8 mL = 0.0488 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of ammonium ion}=\frac{0.0035mol}{0.0488L}=0.072M$

To calculate the acid dissociation constant for the given base dissociation constant, we use the equation:

$K_w=K_b\times K_a$

where,

$K_w$ = Ionic product of water = $10^{-14}$

$K_a$ = Acid dissociation constant

$K_b$ = Base dissociation constant = $1.8\times 10^{-5}$

$10^{-14}=1.8\times 10^{-5}\times K_a\\\\K_a=\frac{10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-5}}=5.55\times 10^{-10}$

The chemical equation for the dissociation of ammonium ion follows:

$NH_4^+\rightarrow NH_3+H^+$

The expression of $K_a$ for above equation follows:

$K_a=\frac{[NH_3][H^+]}{[NH_4^+]}$

We know that:

$[NH_3]=[H^+]=x$

$[NH_4^+]=0.072M$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$5.55\times 10^{-10}=\frac{x\times x}{0.072}\\\\x=6.32\times 10^{-6}M$

To calculate the pH concentration, we use the equation:

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

We are given:

$[H^+]=6.32\times 10^{--6}M$

$pH=-\log (6.32\times 10^{-6})\\\\pH=5.20$

Hence, the initial concentration of ammonia is 0.14 M and the pH of the solution at equivalence point is 5.20

One of the compounds used to increase the octane rating of gasoline is toluene (pictured). Suppose 43.3 mL of toluene (d = 0.867

Thepotemich [5.8K]

<u>Answer:</u>

(A)

Density = Mass / Volume

So

Mass = Density × Volume

$= 0.867 g/mL \times 43.3mL = 37.5411 g Toluene$

$1C_6 H_5 CH_3 + 9 O_2 > 7 CO_2 + 4 H_2 O$

Mole ratio of toluene : Oxygen is 1 : 9

$37.5411 g \text { Toluene } \times \frac{1 \text {mol} \text {toluene}}{92 g \text { toluene}} \times \frac{9 {mol} O_{2}}{1 \text {mol} \text { toluene }} \times \frac{32 g O_{2}}{1 {mol} O_{2}}=117 g O_{2}(\text {Answer})$

(B)

1 mole of Toluene produces 7 moles of $CO_2$ gas and 4 moles of $H_2 O$ Vapour

So the mole ratio is 1 : 11

$37.5411 g Toluene $\times \frac{1 \text { mol toluene }}{92 g \text { toluene }} \times \frac{11 \mathrm{mol} \text { gas }}{1 \text { mol toluene }} $$\\\\=4.49 \text { mol gaseous products (Answer) } $$

(C)

1mole contains $6.022\times10^{23}$ molecules

$37.5411 g Toluene $\times \frac{1 \text { mol toluene }}{92 g \text { toluene}} \times \frac{4 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}{1 \mathrm{mol} \text { toluene }} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23} \text { molecules } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}{1 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}} $\\\\$=9.82 \times 10^{23} \text { molecules } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \text { (Answer) } $$
