One method used commercially to peel potatoes is to soak them in a solution of NaOH for a short time and then remove them from t

he NaOH. The peel will have separated from the potato and so it can then easily be sprayed off to yield beautifully peeled potatoes! The NaOH solution however, must be analyzed periodically to make sure its concentration is adequate for the reaction In one such analysis, 45.7 mL of 0.500 M H2SO4 is required to react completely with a 20.0 mL sample of the NaOH solution. The products of the reaction are Na2SO4 and water. What is the concentration of the starting NaOH solution?a. 1.14 M b. 2.28 M c. 0.438 M d. 0.500 M e. 0.571M

Answer:

b. 2.28 M

Explanation:

The reaction of neutralization of NaOH with H2SO4 is:

2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O

<em>Where 2 moles of NaOH react per mole of H2SO4</em>

<em />

To solve the concentration of NaOH we need to find the moles of H2SO4. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of NaOH that react and with the volume the molar concentration as follows:

<em>Moles H2SO4:</em>

45.7mL = 0.0457L * (0.500mol/L) = 0.02285 moles H2SO4

<em>Moles NaOH:</em>

0.02285 moles H2SO4 * (2moles NaOH / 1 mol H2SO4) = 0.0457moles NaOH

<em>Molarity NaOH:</em>

0.0457moles NaOH / 0.020L =

2.28M

Right option:

<h3>b. 2.28 M</h3>

What is the molarity of an H3PO4solution if 15.0 mL is completely neutralized by 38.5 mL of 0.150 MNaOH? Please explain your ans
rodikova [14]

Answer:

M=Molarity

V=volume

change millilitre to litre

so:15ml=0.015 L

:38.5ml=0.0385 L

M1V1=M1V1

M1* 0.015 L= 0.15M*0.0385 L

M1=0.00385

What is the measured component of the orbital magnetic dipole moment of an electron with (a) ml = and (b) ml = ?
faust18 [17]

ANSWER:

What is the measured component of the orbital magnetic dipole moment of an electron with the values

(a)  ml=3

(b ) ml= −4

a) -278 x 10^{-23}J/T

b) 3.71 x 10^{-23}J/T

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

a) ml= 3

Цorb,z = ml Цв = - (3) * (9.27e - 24) = -278 x 10^{-23}J/T

b) ml= 3

Цorb,z = ml Цв = - (-4) * (9.27e - 24) = 3.71 x 10^{-23}J/T
