Which is the best definition of electrolyte?

Karla added green pellets to a container of water before she began watering her lawn. What correctly describes

kvv77 [185]

The correct answer is C. The water is the solvent because the green pellets dissolved in it.

Explanation:

In solutions, the are two substances involved, the solvent and the solute. The solvent is usually a liquid substance; additionally, the solvent dissolves another substance, which is known as the solute. For example, if you dissolve a spoon of salt in a glass of water, the solute is the salt which is the substance dissolved and the solvent is the water because the solute is dissolved in it. According to this, in the case presented the water is the solvent because the green pellets which are the solute dissolve in it.

A sample of hexane (C6H14) has a mass of 0.580 g. The sample is burned in a bomb calorimeter that has a mass of 1.900 kg and a s

Talja [164]

Answer: The enthalpy of the reaction is -4134.3 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter, we use the equation:

$q=mc\Delta T$

where,

q = heat absorbed

m = mass of calorimeter = 1.900 kg = 1900 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

c = heat capacity of calorimeter = 3.21 J/g.K

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = 4.542 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$q=1900g\times 3.21J/g.K\times 4.542K=27701.66J=27.7kJ$

Heat released by the calorimeter will be equal to the heat absorbed by the reaction.

Sign convention of heat:

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

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

Given mass of hexane = 0.580 g

Molar mass of hexane = 86.18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of hexane}=\frac{0.580g}{86.18g/mol}=0.0067mol$

To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

q = amount of heat released = -27.7 kJ

n = number of moles of hexane= 0.0067 moles

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ = enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-27.7kJ}{0.0067mol}=-4134.3kJ/mol$

Hence, the enthalpy of the reaction is -4134.3 kJ/mol

A 0.100 M oxalic acid, HO2CCO2H, solution is titrated with 0.100 M KOH. Calculate the pH when 25.00 mL of oxalic acid solution i

____ [38]

Answer:

pH = 4.09

Explanation:

molarity of oxalic acid in the solution

= 0.1 x 25 / (25 + 35)

= 0.0417 M

molarity of NaOH in the solution

= 0.1 x 35 / (25 +35)

= 0.0583 M

H2C2O4 + NaOH -------------------> NaHC2O4 + H2O

0.0417 0.0583 0 0

0 0.0166 0.0417

now second acid -base titration

NaHC2O4 + NaOH -------------------> Na2C2O4 + H2O

0.0417 0.0166 0 0

0.0251 0 0.0166 ---

now

pH = pKa2 + log [Na2C2O4 / NaHC2O4]

pH = 4.27 + log (0.0166 / 0.0251)

pH = 4.09
