What does hydrochloric acid do

Chemistry
2 answers:
marta [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is commonly used for the neutralization of alkaline agents, as a bleaching agent, in food, textile, metal, and rubber industries. It is neutralized if released into the soil and it rapidly hydrolyzes when exposed to water. Skin exposure to low concentrations of hydrogen chloride gas or hydrochloric acid causes erythema and inflammation of the skin whereas high concentrations can cause severe chemical burns to the skin and mucous membranes.

A mixture of 454 kg of applesauce at 10 degrees Celsius is heated in a heat exchanger by adding 121300 kJ. Calculate the outlet
stira [4]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

           Mass of apple sauce mixture = 454 kg

           Heat added (Q) = 121300 kJ

 Heat capacity (C_{p}) of apple sauce at 32.8^{o}C = 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C

So, Heat given by heat exchanger = heat taken by apple sauce

                            Q = mC_{p} \Delta T

or,                    Q = mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})  

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                     Q = mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})  

              121300 kJ = 454 kg \times 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C \times (T_{f} - 10)

                      T_{f} = 76.5^{o}C

Thus, we can conclude that outlet temperature of the apple sauce is 76.5^{o}C.

a compound containing only sulfur and nitrogen is by mass; the molar mass is g/mol. what are the empirical and molecular formula
kolezko [41]

The chemical compound's empirical formula is NS.

The chemical compound's molecular formula is N4S4.

<h3>What does a chemical empirical formula look like?</h3>
  • The empirical formula of a compound that gives the proportion (ratios) of the elements in the complex but not the precise number or arrangement of atoms is known as an empirical formula.
  • This would be the compound's element to whole number ratio with the lowest value.
<h3>What sort of empirical formula would that be?</h3>
  • The chemical structure of glucose is C6H12O6. Every mole of carbon and oxygen is accompanied by two moles of hydrogen.
  • Glucose has the empirical formula CH2O.
  • Ribose has the chemical formula C5H10O5, which can be simplified to the empirical formula CH2O.

No links please. How many moles of methane (CH4) are in 7.31x10^25 molecules?
ad-work [718]

Answer:

molar mass of methane CH4

= C + 4 H  

= 12.0 + 4 x 1.008

= 12.0 +  4.032

= 16.042g/mol

7.31 x 10^25 molecules x             1 mole  CH4      = 121.43 moles

                                      6.02 x 10^23 CH4 molecules

121.43 moles CH4 are present.

Explanation:

not to certain if this is right or not.. but hope it helps!
