How many liters of a 15% NaCl solution should be mixed with 2 L of a 20% NaCl solution to obtain a 16%
NaCl solution?

Answers

Answer:

8 liters of 15% NaCl solution should be mixed with 2 L of a 20% NaCl solution to obtain a 16%  NaCl solution

Explanation:

The method employed here is known as alligation technique.

Alligation is a method used to calculate the proportion of any two solutions to be mixed to prepare final solution of required concentration.

Let the number of liters of the 15% NaCl solution be X

A mixture of X liters of 15% NaCl + 2 liters of 20% NaCl gives X + 2 liters of a solution whose concentration is 16%

X  * 15% + 2 * 20% = 16% * X + 2

0.15X + 2 * 0.2 = 0.16 X + 0.16 * 2

0.15X + 0.4 = 0.16X + 0.32

0.16X - 0.15X = 0.4 - 0.32

0.01X = 0.08

X = 0.08/0.01

X = 8 liters

Therefore, 8 liters of 15% NaCl solution should be mixed with 2 L of a 20% NaCl solution to obtain a 16%  NaCl solution

7. A number of reactions that take place on the surfaces of catalysts are zero order in the reactant. One example is the decomposition of ammonia on hot tungsten. In one experiment, the partial pressure of ammonia decreased from 21 kPa to 10 kPa in 770 s. (a) What is the rate constant for the zero-order reaction

Answers

Answer:

14.29 Pa/s

Explanation:

Given that, for a zero order reaction;

[A] = [A]o - kt

[A] = pressure at time =t

[A]o = initial pressure

k = rate constant

t = time taken

10 * 10^3 Pa  = 21 * 10^3 Pa - 770k

10 * 10^3 Pa - 21 * 10^3 Pa = -770k

-11* 10^3 = -770k

k = -11* 10^3/-770

k = 14.29 Pa/s

Under certain conditions the rate of this reaction is zero order in ammonia with a rate constant of :
0.0067·Ms−1: 2N2O(g)→2N2(g)+O2(g)
Suppose a flask is charged under these conditions with of ammonia. After how much time is there only left? You may assume no other reaction is important. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

[tex]2NO_2_{(g)} \to 2N_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)}[/tex]

The above reaction is a zero-order reaction.

The rate constant = 0.0067 M-s⁻¹

Suppose the volume of the flask = 4L

Initial Mol of dinitrogen monoxide = 300 mmol

The final mol of dinitrogen monoxide = 150 mmol

The molarity of dinitrogen monoxide = [tex]\dfrac{ \text{number of moles of dinitrogen monoxide }}{\text{volume of flask}}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{300 \ m}{ 4 L}[/tex]

= 0.0075 mmol/L

= 0.0075 L

The final concentration  [tex]= \dfrac{150 \ m}{ 4 L}[/tex]

= 0.0375 L

By applying zero order equation

[tex]kt = [A_o] -[At][/tex]

[tex](0.0067)(t) = 0.075 - 0.0375[/tex]

[tex](0.0067)(t) = 0.0375[/tex]

Liquid hexane CH3CH24CH3 will react with gaseous oxygen O2 to produce gaseous carbon dioxide CO2 and gaseous water H2O. Suppose 4.3 g of hexane is mixed with 25.8 g of oxygen. Calculate the maximum mass of carbon dioxide that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

13g of CO₂ is the maximum amount that could be produced

Explanation:

The reaction of hexane with oxygen is:  

C₆H₁₄ + 19/2O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O  

Where 19/2 moles of oxygen react per mole of C₆H₁₄

 

To solve this question we need to find theoretical yield finding limiting reactant :

Moles C₆H₁₄:  

4.3g C₆H₁₄ * (1mol / 86.18g) = 0.0499 moles  

Moles O₂:  

25.8g * (1mol / 32g) = 0.806 moles  

For a complete reaction of 0.0499 moles of C₆H₁₄ are needed:

0.0499 moles of C₆H₁₄ * (19/2 mol O₂ / 1mol C₆H₁₄) = 0.474 moles of O₂.

As there are 0.806 moles, O₂ is in excess and C₆H₁₄ is limiting reactant

In theoretical yield, the moles of hexane added = 6Moles of CO₂ produced. Moles of CO₂ are:

0.0499 moles C₆H₁₄ * (6mol CO₂ / 1mol C₆H₁₄) = 0.299 moles CO₂

In grams:

0.299 moles CO₂ * (44.01g / mol) = 13g CO₂

13g of CO₂ is the maximum amount that could be produced

g In science, we like to develop explanations that we can use to predict the outcome of events and phenomena. Try to develop an explanation that tells how much NaOH needs to be added to a beaker of HCl to cause the color to change. Your explanation can be something like: The color change will occur when [some amount] of NaOH is added because the color change occurs when [some condition]. The goal for your explanation is that it describes the outcome of this example, but can also be used to predict the outcome of other examples of this phenomenon. Here's an example explanation: The color of the solution will change when 40 ml of NaOH is added to a beaker of HCl because the color always changes when 40ml of base is added. Although this explanation works for this example, it probably won't work in examples where the flask contains a different amount of HCl, such as 30ml. Try to make an explanation that accurately predicts the outcome of other versions of this phenomenon.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A titration involves the addition of a titrant to an analyte solution. It is a method of volumetric analysis.

When a particular volume of titrant is added, the colour changes to signal the end point of the reaction.

The point at which the colour changes is called the equivalence point. This is the point at which the amount of titrant added is just enough to completely neutralize the analyte solution.

Hence the volume NaOH that needs to be added to the beaker containing HCl to cause a colour change is the volume of NaOH that is just enough to completely neutralize the HCl solution.

CO2 adsorbed onto the ZnO, which is progressively lost during the experiment ? Are you sure about the quality of your ZnO ? If it is not a fresh one, it might be carbonated, and decompose into ZnO + CO2, thus losing weight. Alternatively, you can check if you produced ZnS through the expected reaction ZnO + H2S → ZnS + H2O : Take a small part of your sorbent on a lab tile, add a few drops of H2SO4 (4 mol/L), observe and smell. If ZnS is present, then a little amount of H2S gas will be produced: you will see it or at least smell it, as the nose is sensitive to 3 ppm of H2S in air. Then you'll conclude whether the expected reaction occurred or not.

There are four conditions an atom needs to meet to participate in hydrogen bonding. It needs to be_______ enough not to bump into other atoms when approaching the 1s orbital of the hydrogen, it needs to carry at least one________ atom, it needs to be_________enough to create a delta on the connected hydrogen, and it needs to have at least one________.

Answers

Answer:

The conditions are

1) Small enough

2) Electronegative atom

3) highly electronegative

4) lone pair of electrons

The correct statement therefore is

It needs to be small enough not to bump into other atoms when approaching the 1s orbital of the hydrogen, it needs to carry at least one electronegative atom, it needs to be highly electronegative enough to create a delta on the connected hydrogen, and it needs to have at least one lone pair of electrons.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular bond that occurs between the partial positive charge (delta) on a hydrogen atom bonded to a small highly electronegative element (like nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine) and the free electrons on another electronegative element of another molecule.

The hydrogen atom with the partial positive charge (delta) is known as the hydrogen bond donor, while the electronegative element, carrying lone electrons is called the hydrogen bond acceptor.

Let's take a deeper look at these terms:

1) Hydrogen bond donor

Using water (H₂O) as an example, the high electronegativity of the oxygen atom covalently bonded to the hydrogen atom draws the lone electron in the 1s orbital of the hydrogen atom, creating a partial positive charge (d⁺) on the hydrogen atom. This is what happens within one water molecule

2) Hydrogen bond acceptor

When two or more molecules of water interact, the partial positive charge (d⁺) on the hydrogen atom of one molecule, is attracted to the valence or free electrons on the oxygen atom of a nearby molecule of water thus creating a dipole-dipole intermolecular bond known as a hydrogen bond.

             

For the hydrogen bond to be effective, the electronegative atom bonded to the hydrogen acting as the hydrogen bond donor in the first water molecule needs to be small enough so as not to disrupt the 1s orbital of the hydrogen atom. The smaller the size of the electronegative atom, the stronger the partial negative charge created on the hydrogen atom.

The valence or free pair of electrons on the electronegative (oxygen) atom of the second molecule of water (hydrogen bond acceptor) is what attracts the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom to create the hydrogen bond

if a gas at 300k occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm, what will be it’s new pressure if the volume is compressed to 2.0 liters at a temperature of 450K?

Answers

Answer: The new pressure if the volume is compressed to 2.0 liters at a temperature of 450K is 2.7 atm

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas = ?

[tex]V_1[/tex] = initial volume of gas = 3.60 L

[tex]V_2[/tex] = final volume of gas = 2.0 L

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of gas = [tex]300K[/tex]

[tex]T_2[/tex] = final temperature of gas = [tex]450K[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

[tex]\frac{1.00\times 3.60}{300}=\frac{P_2\times 2.0}{450}[/tex]

[tex]P_2=2.7atm[/tex]

The new pressure is 2.7 atm
