If you start a chemical reaction with 5 atoms of hydrogen, how many hydrogen atoms will you have when it is finished? Group of a

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

5 atoms

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".

We finish with what we start with in a chemical reaction. Although new species might form, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression will still be maintained.

All chemical reactions obey this law of conservation.

loris [4]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the pH at 25°C of a 0.39 M solution of sodium hypochlorite NaClO. Note that hypochlorous acid HClO is a weak acid with a pKa of 7.50. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

Answer: The pH of the solution is 10.4

Explanation:

We are given:

Molarity of sodium hypochlorite = 0.39 M

$pK_a$ of HClO = 7.50

We know that:

$pK_a=-\log K_a$

$K_a$ of HClO = $10^{-7.50}=3.16\times 10^{-8}$

To calculate the base dissociation constant for the given acid dissociation constant, we use the equation:

$K_w=K_b\times K_a$

where,

$K_w$ = Ionic product of water = $10^{-14}$

$K_a$ = Acid dissociation constant = $3.16\times 10^{-8}$

$K_b$ = Base dissociation constant

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$10^{-14}=3.16\times 10^{-8}\times K_b\\\\K_b=\frac{10^{-14}}{3.16\times 10^{-8}}=3.16\times 10^{-7}$

The chemical equation for the reaction of hypochlorite ion with water follows:

$ClO^-+H_2O\rightarrow HClO+OH^-$

Initial: 0.39

At eqllm: 0.39-x x x

The expression of $K_b$ for above equation follows:

$K_b=\frac{[HClO][OH^-]}{[ClO^-]}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$3.16\times 10^{-7}=\frac{x\times x}{(0.39-x)}\\\\x=-0.00035,0.00035$

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative

To calculate the pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

We are given:

$[OH^-]=0.00035M$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pOH=-\log (0.00035)=3.6$

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pH+pOH=14\\pH=14-3.6=10.4$

Hence, the pH of the solution is 10.4

During normal, relaxed respiration, about 500ml of air enters and leaves the lungs with each respiratory cycle. this is called t

Marianna [84]

During normal respiration, about 500ml of air enters and leaves the lungs with each respiratory cycle. This is called the tidal volume.

When a person is relaxed, the normal amount of air such a person breathes in and out is called the tidal volume. It is usually measured in millimeters. For the average adult male, it is 500ml, and the tidal volume of average adult female 400ml.

In order to regulate oxygen intake and expulsion of carbon dioxide, the lungs act as buffers in order to absorb the maximum amount of oxygen possible for respiration and other metabolic functions in the body.

When the tidal volume is above or below the 500ml mark, it could signal the presence of underlying pathological conditions like bronchitis, emphysema and asthma.
