Answer: Option C

A measurement of speed equaling (27.7 km/hour)

Explanation:

It is measurement of speed equaling (27.7 km/hour) because it is a factor used in dimensional analysis because it is a problem solving method that involve the use of number or expression which can be multiplied without affecting or causing a change in the value of the expression.

27.7km/he is not the exact number that can limit the precision of the calculated value or accurate value.

Explain the effects of nh3 and hcl on the cuso4 solution in terms of le chatelier's principle
Fittoniya [83]

The Principle of Le Chatelier states that if a system in equilibrium is subjected to a disturbance, the system will react in such a way that it will diminish the effect of that disturbance. Thus, when the concentration of one of the substances in an equilibrium system is changed, the equilibrium varies in such a way that it can compensate for this change.

For example, if the concentration of one of the reactants is increased, the equilibrium shifts to the right or to the side of the products. Also, if you add more reagents, the reaction will move even more to the right until the balance is re-established again, increasing the quantity of products.

In this way, adding HCl to a solution of CuSO4 will produce the following reaction:

CuSO4 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) ⇔ CuCl2 (aq) + H2SO4 (aq)

Initially the solution of CuSO4 in water will be blue, but when adding HCl the solution will change color to green, since the aqueous solutions of CuCl2 are green. By adding more HCl this color will intensify as the balance shifts to the right, producing more CuCl2 and H2SO4.

On the other hand, adding NH3 to a solution of CuSO4 will produce the following reaction

CuSO4 (aq) + 4NH3 (aq) ⇔ [Cu(NH3)4] SO4 (s)

Thus, by adding NH3 to the CuSO4 solution we will observe the formation of a precipitate corresponding to [Cu(NH3) 4] SO4. <u>When adding more NH3, the formation of more precipitate will be observed as the equilibrium moves to the right, producing a greater quantity of [Cu (NH3) 4] SO4.</u>

Phosphorous acid, H3PO3(aq), is a diprotic oxyacid that is an important compound in industry and agriculture. K pKa1 K pKa2 1.30
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

* Before addition of any KOH:

pH = 0,0301

*After addition of 25.0 mL KOH:

pH = 1,30

*After addition of 50.0 mL KOH:

pH = 2,87

*After addition of 75.0 mL KOH:

pH = 6,70

*After addition of 100.0 mL KOH:

pH = 10,7

Explanation:

H₃PO₃ has the following equilibriums:

H₃PO₃ ⇄ H₂PO₃⁻ H⁺

k = [H₂PO₃⁻] [H⁺] / [H₃PO₃] k = 10^-(1,30) <em>(1)</em>

H₂PO₃⁻ ⇄ HPO₃²⁻ + H⁺

k = [HPO₃²⁻] [H⁺] / [H₂PO₃⁻] k = 10^-(6,70) <em>(2)</em>

Moles of H₃PO₃ are:

0,0500L×(1,8mol/L) = 0,09 moles of H₃PO₃

* Before addition of any KOH:

Using (1), moles in equilibrium are:

H₃PO₃: 0,09-x

H₂PO₃⁻: x

H⁺: x

Replacing:

10^{-1.30} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

4.51x10⁻³ - 0.050x -x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.0466589

As volume is 0,050L

[H⁺] = 0.0466589moles / 0,050L = 0,933M

As pH = -log [H⁺]

<em>pH = 0,0301</em>

*After addition of 25.0 mL KOH:

0,025L×1,8M = 0,045 moles of KOH that reacts with H₃PO₃ thus:

KOH + H₃PO₃ → H₂PO₃⁻ + H₂O

That means moles of KOH will be the same of H₂PO₃⁻ and moles of H₃PO₃ are 0,09moles - 0,045moles = 0,045moles

Henderson-Hasselbalch formula is:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] /[HA]

Where A⁻ is H₂PO₃⁻ and HA is H₃PO₃.

Replacing:

pH = 1,30 + log₁₀ [0,045mol] / [0,045mol]

<em>pH = 1,30</em>

*After addition of 50.0 mL KOH:

The addition of 50.0 mL KOH consume all H₃PO₃. Thus, in the solution you will have just H₂PO₃⁻. Thus, moles in solution for the equilibrium will be:

H₂PO₃⁻: 0,09-x

HPO₃²⁻: x

H⁺: x

Replacing:

10^{-6.70} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

1.8x10⁻⁸ - 2x10⁻⁷x - x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.000134064

As volume is 50,0mL + 50,0mL = 100,0mL

[H⁺] = 0.000134064moles / 0,100L = 1.34x10⁻³M

As pH = -log [H⁺]

<em>pH = 2,87</em>

*After addition of 75.0 mL KOH:

Applying Henderson-Hasselbalch formula you will have 0,045 moles of both H₂PO₃⁻ HPO₃²⁻ and pka: 6,70:

pH = 6,70 + log₁₀ [0,045mol] / [0,045mol]

<em>pH = 6,70</em>

*After addition of 100.0 mL KOH:

You will have just 0,09moles of HPO₃²⁻, the equilibrium will be:

HPO₃²⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂PO₃⁻ + OH⁻ with kb = kw/ka = 1x10⁻¹⁴/10^-(6,70) = 5,01x10⁻⁸

kb = [H₂PO₃⁻] [OH⁻] / [HPO₃²⁻]

Moles are:

H₂PO₃⁻: x

OH⁻: x

HPO₃²⁻: 0,09-x

Replacing:

5.01x10^{-8} = \frac{x^2}{0.09-x}

4.5x10⁻⁹ - 5.01x10⁻⁸x - x² = 0

The right solution of x is:

x = 0.000067057

As volume is 50,0mL + 100,0mL = 150,0mL

[OH⁻] = 0.000067057moles / 0,150L = 4.47x10⁻⁴M

As pH = 14-pOH; pOH = -log [OH⁻]

<em>pH = 10,7</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Phosphorous acid, h3po3(aq), is a diprotic oxyacid that is an important compound in industry and agriculture. calculate the ph f
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Before the addition of KOH :-

Given pKa1 of H3PO3 = 1.30

we know , pKa1 = - log10Ka1

Ka1 = 10-pKa1

Ka1 = 10-1.30

Ka1 = 0.0501

similarly pKa2 = 6.70 ,therefore Ka2 = 1.99 x 10-7

because Ka1 >> Ka2 , therefore pH of diprotic acid i.e H3PO3 can be calculated from first dissociation only .

ICE table is :-

H3PO3 (aq) <-------------> H+ (aq) + H2PO3-(aq)

I 2.4 M 0 M 0 M

C - x + x + x

E (2.4 - x )M x M x M

x = degree of dissociation

Now expression of Ka1 is :

Ka1 = [ H+ ] [ H2PO3-] / [ H3PO3]

0.0501 = x2 / 2.4 - x

on solving for x by using quadratic formula , we have

x = 0.32

Now [ H+ ] = [ H2PO3-] = 0.32 M

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log 0.32

pH = - ( - 0.495)

pH = 0.495

Hence pH before the addition of KOH = 0.495

(b)

After the addition of 25.0 mL of 2.4 M KOH :-

Number of moles of KOH = 2.4 M x 0.025 L = 0.06 mol

Number of moles of H3PO3 = 2.4 M x 0.050 L = 0.12 mol

Now 0.06 moles of KOH is equal to the half of the moles required for the first equivalent point . therefore pH at this point is equal to pKa1 .

Hence pH = 1.30 M

(c)

After the addition of 50.0 mL of 2.4 M KOH :-

Number of moles of KOH = 2.4 M x 0.050 L = 0.12 mol

Number of moles of H3PO3 = 2.4 M x 0.050 L = 0.12 mol

because Number of moles of H3PO4 = Number of moles of KOH

therefore , this point is the first equivalence point

and pH = pKa1 + pKa2 / 2

pH = 1.30 + 6.70 / 2

pH = 4.00

Hence pH = 4.00

(d)

After the addition of 75.0 mL of 2.4 M KOH :-

Number of moles of KOH = 2.4 M x 0.075 L = 0.18 mol

Number of moles of H3PO3 = 2.4 M x 0.050 L = 0.12 mol

This is the half way of the second equivalence point , therefore pH is equal to pKa2 .

Hence pH = 6.70

Which has not been suggested as a reasonably practical way to store large amounts of hydrogen in relatively small spaces for its
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: A. Liquefy hydrogen under pressure and store it much as we do with liquefied natural gas today.

Explanation:

Current Hydrogen storage methods fall into one of two technologies;

  1. <em>physical storage</em> where compressed hydrogen gas is stored under pressure or as a liquid; and
  2. <em>chemical storage</em>, where the hydrogen is bonded with another material to form a hydride and released through a chemical reaction.

Physical storage solutions are commonly used technologies but are problematic when looking at using hydrogen to fuel vehicles. Compressed hydrogen gas needs to be stored under high pressure and  requires large and heavy tanks. Also, liquid hydrogen boils at -253°C (-423°F) so it needs to be stored cryogenically with heavy insulation and actually contains less hydrogen compared with the same volume of gasoline.  

Chemical storage methods allow hydrogen to be stored at much lower pressures and offer high storage performance due to the strong binding of hydrogen and the high storage densities. They also occupy relatively smaller spaces than either compressed hydrogen gas or liquified hydrogen. A large number of chemical storage systems are under investigation, which involve hydrolysis reactions, hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions, ammonia borane and other boron hydrides, ammonia, and alane etc.

Other practical storage methods being researched that focuses on storing hydrogen as a lightweight, compact energy carrier for mobile applications include;

  • Metal hydrides  e.g. LiH
  • Nanostructured metal hydrides
  • Non-metal hydrides
  • Carbohydrates
  • Synthesized hydrocarbons
  • Aluminum
  • Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC)
  • Encapsulation , e.t.c.

Suppose you need 7.0 m of Grade 70 tow chain, which has a diameter of 38" and weighs , 2.16/kgm to tow a car. How would you calc
STatiana [176]

Answer : The mass of 7.0 m chain is, 15.12 kg

Explanation :

As we are given that,

The weight of the chain per unit length = 2.16 kg/m

Now we have to determine the mass of chain for 7.0 m length.

As, the mass of 1 m length of chain = 2.16 kg

So, the mass of 7.0 m length of chain = \frac{7.0m}{1m}\times 2.16kg

                                                                = 15.12 kg

Therefore, the mass of 7.0 m chain is, 15.12 kg
