What is created when an acid is mixed with a base?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

If you mix equal amounts of a strong acid and a strong base, the two chemicals essentially cancel each other out and produce a salt and water. Mixing equal amounts of a strong acid with a strong base also produces a neutral pH (pH = 7) solution.

A compound of formula XCl3 reacts with aqueous AgNO3 to yield solid AgCl according to the following equation: XCl3(aq)+3AgNO3(aq
Levart [38]

Answer:

Aluminum

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

Mass of AgCl = 1.68 g

Molar mass of AgCl = 143.32 g/mol

Thus,

Moles\ of\ AgCl=\frac {1.68}{169.87}=0.01172

From the reaction below:

XCl_3_{(aq)}+3AgNO_3_{(aq)}\rightarrow X(NO_3)_3_{(aq)}+3AgCl_{(s)}

3 moles of AgCl are produced when 1 mole of XCl_3 undergoes reaction.

So,

1 mole of AgCl are produced when \frac {1}{3} mole of XCl_3 undergoes reaction.

0.01172 mole of AgCl are produced when \frac {1}{3}\times 0.01172 mole of XCl_3 undergoes reaction.

Thus, moles of XCl_3 = 0.0039 moles

Let the atomic mass of X = x g/mol

atomic mass of chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

Thus, Molar mass of XCl_3 = x + 3(35.5) g/mol = x + 106.5 g/mol

Moles = 0.0039 moles

Mass = 0.521 g

Thus, molar mass = Given mass/ Moles = 0.521 / 0.0039 = 133.5897 g/mol

So,

x + 106.5 = 133.5897

x = 27.0897 g/mol

This Atomic weight corresponds to Aluminum. Hence, X is aluminum.

Which compound has a molecular ion at m/z = 58, an infra red absorption at 1650cm^-1?
rewona [7]

CH_{3}COCH_{3} (acetone) has a molecular ion at m/z = 58, an infra red absorption at 1650cm^-1

Acetone is a synthetic substance that is also naturally present in the environment. It is a tasteless, colourless liquid with a distinct odour. It is combustible, readily evaporates, and dissolves in water. It is also known as beta-ketopropane, 2-propanone, and dimethyl ketone. Plastic, fibres, medications, and other compounds are all made from acetone.

Other substances can also be dissolved with it. It is a byproduct of the breakdown of human fat and is found naturally in plants, trees, volcanic gases, forest fires, and other organisms. It can be found in landfills, tobacco smoke, and automobile exhaust. Acetone is released into the environment more through industrial processes than through natural ones.

A 100.0-g sample of water at 27.0oC is poured into a 71.0-g sample of water at 89.0oC. What will be the final temperature of the
Sedbober [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature will be 52.74^oC

<u>Explanation:</u>

Calculating the heat released or absorbed for the process:

q=m\times C\times (T_2-T_1)

In a system, the total amount of heat released is equal to the total amount of heat absorbed.

q_1=-q_2

OR

m_1\times C\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times C\times (T_f-T_2) ......(1)

where,

C = heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of water of sample 1 = 100.0 g

m_2 = mass of water of sample 2 = 71.0 g

T_f = final temperature of the system = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of water of sample 1 = 27^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of the water of sample 2 = 89.0^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

100.0\times 4.184\times (T_f-27)=-71.0\times 4.184\times (T_f-89)\\\\171T_f=9019\\\\T_f=\frac{9019}{171}=52.74^oC

Hence, the final temperature will be 52.74^oC

Typical residential shower controls mix streams of hot water (140 F, or 60 C) with cold water (60 F, or 15 C) to form a stream o
sammy [17]

Answer:

  4:5

Explanation:

Let x represent the fraction of the mix that is hot water. Then the temperature of the mix is ...

  60x +15(1-x) = 40·1

  45x = 25 . . . . . . . . . subtract 15

  x = 25/45 = 5/9 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

This is the fraction that is hot water, so the fraction that is cold water is ...

  1-5/9 = 4/9

The ratio of cold to hot is ...

  cold : hot = (4/9) : (5/9) = 4 : 5

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

The problem assumes that the energy contained in a given mass of water is proportional to its temperature. That is almost true, sufficiently so that we can reasonably use that approximation.

If heat loss is figured into the problem, then additional information is needed regarding the energy content of water at temperatures in the range of interest. That is not provided by this problem statement, so we have ignored the heat loss.

What is a destructive force caused by the convection in the mantle
Karolina [17]

Answer:

convergent margins.

Explanation:

Mantle convection causes the phenomenon of plate tectonics on the earth surface.

From plate tectonics, we understand that the earth surface is broken into several giant slabs made up of the crust and upper part of the mantle. This is called the lithosphere. The lithosphere sits on the weak and plastic asthenosphere in the mantle.

The mantle is made up of series of convective cells through which hot, molten and lighter materials which are more buoyant rises up. They are then replaced by cold and denser materials. This system of exchange sets up a convection system which drives the overriding lithospheric plates.

The plates can collide with one another at convergent margins, some can move away from one another at divergent margins and some just slides past one another at transform margins.

A convergent margin is a destructive margin in which the lithosphere is destroyed either by collision or subduction.
