Explanation:

Two acids we come into contact with in an average week

  1. Vinegar is an 10% solution of acetic acid (CH_3COOH)in water. Used in salad dressing and while cooking food. It has a sour taste.
  2. Citric acid present in fruits and vegetables like : lemons, orange, tomatoes etc. It is a weak organic acid with sour taste.

Two bases we come into contact with in an average week.  

  1. Baking soda (NaHCO_3) is used in baking food like: cakes, cookies, breads. Baking soda is one of the ingredient while baking breads and cakes.
  2. Caustic soda (NaOH) is used for preparation of detergents, papers , soaps etc. We use soaps and detergents for washing.

1 common acid that is used on a daily basis is Hydrochloric Acid in your stomach. It actives the enzyme pepsin into pepsinogen to degenerate proteins. Another acid is vinegar which is used in cooking and cleaning. 

A base I use on a daily basis is Tums as it has sodium bicarbonate, a common base used to neutralize stomach acids. Another one is ammonia which is used for hair and cleaning products.

If the actual yield of the reaction was 75% instead of 100%, how many molecules of no would be present after the reaction was ov
artcher [175]
To be able to answer this equations, we must set given information. Suppose the reaction to yield NO is:

N₂ + O₂ → 2 NO

Next, suppose you have 1 g of each of the reactants. Determine first which is the limiting reactant.

1 g N₂ (1 mol N₂/ 28 g)(2 mol NO/1 mol N₂)= 0.07154 mol NO present

Number of molecules = 0.07154 mol NO(6.022×10²³ molecules/mol)
<em>Number of molecules = 4.3×10²² molecules NO present</em>

Match the following names of glassware with what you would use them for.(1) Glassware used to accurately transfer small volumes.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(1)=(A), (2)=(B), (3)=D, (4)=C, (5)=E, (6)=F

Explanation:

(1) Glassware used to accurately transfer small volumes = (A) Graduated pipette, that is basically a glass tube with graduation of different volumes to be dispensed.

(2) Glassware used to accurately transfer a small, single volume = (B) Volumetric pipette, that is a glass tube with a central glass bulb and is used to dispense accurately an unique volume of liquid everytime.

(3) Glassware to deliver a volume not known in advance = (D) Buret (or burette), that is used to dispense slowly a volume of liquid when a titration process is needed

(4) Glassware best used when greater access to the contents is needed = (C) Beaker, that is basically a very open glass cylinder with a spout

(5) Glassware used to prevent splashing or evaporation = (E) Erlenmeyer flask, that has a small open at the top and is useful when the liquid needs to be swirled as, for example, during a titration.

(6) Glassware used to make accurate solutions = (F) Volumetric flask, that has a long slim neck that provides a higher accuracy when a exact volume of liquid needs to be used for preparation of a solution.

A certain radioactive nuclide has a half life of 1.00 hour(s). Calculate the rate constant for this nuclide. s-1 Calculate the d
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1

1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s

Explanation:

From the information provided;

t1/2=Half life= 1.00 hour or 3600 seconds

Then;

t1/2= 0.693/k

Where k= rate constant

k= 0.693/t1/2 = 0.693/3600

k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1

Since 1 mole of the nuclide contains 6.02×10^23 atoms

Rate of decay= rate constant × number of atoms

Rate of decay = 1.925×10^-4 s^-1 ×6.02×10^23 atoms

Rate of decay= 1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s

D is the answer, I believe.

An isolated system is one that allows neither heat or matter to enter or exit, and since the liquid remained the same temperature, one can conclude that neither energy nor matter is passing through.

500ml of a buffer solution contains 0.050 mol nahso3 and 0.031
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The answers are explained below

Explanation:

a)

Given: concentration of salt/base = 0.031

concentration of acid = 0.050

we have

PH = PK a + log[salt]/[acid] = 1.8 + log(0.031/0.050) = 1.59

b)

we have HSO₃⁻ + OH⁻ ------> SO₃²⁻ + H₂O

Moles i............0.05...................0.01.................0.031.....................0

Moles r...........-0.01.................-0.01................0.01........................0.01

moles f...........0.04....................0....................0.041.....................0.01

c)

we will use the first equation but substituting concentration of base as 0.031 + 10ml = 0.031 + 0.010 = 0.041

Hence, we have

PH = PK a + log[salt]/[acid] = 1.8 + log(0.041/0.050) = 1.71

d)

pOH = -log (0.01/0.510) = 1.71

pH = 14 - 1.71 = 12.29

e)

Because the buffer solution (NaHSO3-Na2SO3) can regulate pH changes. when a buffer is added to water, the first change that occurs is that the water pH becomes constant. Thus, acids or bases (alkali = bases) Additional may not have any effect on the water, as this always will stabilize immediately.
