<u>Answer:</u> 0.0237 g of calcium carbonate would be required to neutralize the given amount of HCl

<u>Explanation:</u>

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration present in the solution

pH=-\log [H^+]      .....(1)

Given value of pH = 1.5

Putting values in equation 1:

1.5=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]=10^{(-1.5)}=0.0316M

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Number of moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (mL)}}       .....(2)

We are given:

Volume of solution = 15.0 mL

Molarity of HCl = 0.0316 M

Putting values in equation 2:

0.0316=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}\times 1000}{15.0}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=\frac{0.0316\times 15.0}{1000}=4.74\times 10^{-4}mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of HCl and calcium carbonate follows:

2HCl+CaCO_3\rightarrow H_2CO_3+CaCl_2

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of calcium carbonate

So, 4.74\times 10^{-4}mol of HCl will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 4.74\times 10^{-4}=2.37\times 10^{-4}mol of calcium carbonate

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of calcium carbonate = 2.37\times 10^{-4}mol

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100.01 g/mol

Putting values in the above equation:

\text{Mass of }CaCO_3=(2.37\times 10^{-4}mol)\times 100.01g/mol\\\\\text{Mass of }CaCO_3=0.0237g

Hence, 0.0237 g of calcium carbonate would be required to neutralize the given amount of HCl

The number of moles of gas lost is  0.0213 mol. It can be solved with the help of Ideal gas law.

<h3>What is Ideal law ?</h3>

According to this law, "the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the number on moles of gas, directly proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e.

PV = nRT.

Where,

  • p = pressure
  • V = volume (1.75 L = 1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)
  • T =  absolute temperature
  • n = number of moles
  • R =  gas constant, 8.314 J*(mol-K)

Therefore, the number of moles is

n = PV / RT

State 1 :

  • T₁ = (25⁰ C = 25+273 = 298 K)
  • p₁ = 225 kPa = 225 x 10³ N/m²

State 2 :

  • T₂ = 10 C = 283 K
  • p₂ = 185 kPa = 185 x 10³ N/m²

The loss in moles of gas from state 1 to state 2 is

Δn = V/R (P₁/T₁ - P₂/T₂ )

V/R = (1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)/(8.314 (N-m)/(mol-K) = 2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N

p₁/T₁ = (225 x 10³)/298 = 755.0336 N/(m²-K)

p₂/T₂ = (185 x 10³)/283 = 653.7102 N/(m²-K)

Therefore,

Δn = (2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N)*(755.0336 - 653.7102 N/(m²-K))

    = 0.0213 mol

Hence, The number of moles of gas lost is 0.0213 mol.

Label each carbon atom with the appropriate geometry. Bin 1 points to a carbon bonded to a double bonded carbon and single bonde
N76 [4]

Answer:

Bin 1 points to a carbon bonded to a double bonded carbon and single bonded to two hydrogens. --- trigonal planar, tetrahedral

Bin 2 points to a carbon double bonded to a carbon and single bonded to a carbon and one hydrogen.------- trigonal planar, tetrahedral

Bin 3 is a carbon single bonded to two carbons and single bonded to two hydrogens. ----- tetrahedral, tetrahedral

Bin 4 is the same as bin 3.--------tetrahedral, tetrahedral

Bin 5 is a carbon triple bonded to a carbon and single bonded to a carbon.---- linear, tetrahedral

Bin 6 is triple bonded to a carbon and single bonded to a hydrogen.---linear, tetrahedral

Explanation:

A single C-C or C-H bond is in a tetrahedral geometry, the carbon atom is bonded to four species with a bond angle of 109°.

A C=C bond is trigonal planar with a bond angle of 120°.

Lastly, a C≡C bond has a linear geometry with a bond angle of 180° between the atoms of the bond.

How to identify Double replacement
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The easiest way to identify a double displacement reaction is to check to see whether or not the cations exchanged anions with each other.

Explanation:

if the states of matter are cited, is to look for aqueous reactants and the formation of one solid product (since the reaction typically generates a precipitate).

Is this showing a lunar or solar eclipse? Explain what is happening from the viewpoint of Earth.
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Solar eclipse

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight. This occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon indicating the Moon
