Answer:
The arrangement of the periodic table leads us to visualize certain trends among the atoms.
Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number.
The vertical columns (groups) of the periodic table are arranged so that all its elements have the same number of valence electrons (outer ring). All elements within a certain group share similar properties.
The rows are called periods. All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells.
When the reaction equation is:
CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.
to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
when P is the pressure = 1.1 atm
and V is the volume = 14.5 L
n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)
R ideal gas constant = 0.0821
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K
so, by substitution:
1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5
∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)
= 0.68 moles SO2
∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles
so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:
when mass = moles * molar mass
and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol
∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g
Answer:
HNO₃.
Explanation:
- It is known that acids decrease the pH of the solution, while bases increase the pH of the solution.
So, HF and HNO₃ decrease the pH of the solution as they produce H⁺ in the solution.
While, KOH and NH₃ increase the pH of the solution as they produce OH⁻ in the solution.
HNO₃ will decrease the pH of the solution greater than HF.
- Because HNO₃ is strong acid that decomposes completely to produce H⁺ more than the same concentration of HF that is a weak acid which does not decomposed completely to produce H⁺.
