What commercially available compound is used to generate cl2?

Chemistry

Hello!

The commercially available compound that is used to generate Cl₂ is Sodium Hypochlorite

<h2>Why?</h2>

Sodium Hypochlorite is present in commercial bleach. Its chemical formula is NaClO.

Sodium Hypochlorite can react with acids (which can be present in vinegar, glass and window cleaners, drain cleaners or lime, calcium and rust removal products) to form Chlorine gas as shown by the following reaction (for a generic acid HA)

NaClO(aq) + HA(aq) → H₂O(aq) + Cl₂(g) + NaA(aq)

Chlorine gas is very toxic, so bleach should never be mixed with anything but water.

Have a nice day!

<span>Bleach and ammonia can be used to make cl2. Bleach is commercially available and so people should be very careful during these experiments or even when mixing things in the household.</span>

The acid-dissociation constant, ka, for gallic acid is 4.57 ⋅ 10-3. what is the base-dissociation constant, kb, for the gallate
LiRa [457]
Hello!

To determine the Kb of gallic acid is actually very simple. 

The dissociation reaction of Gallic Acid (HGal) is the following:

HGal+H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + Gal⁻

The equation for converting from Ka to Kb is the following:

Ka*Kb=Kw \\  \\ Kb= \frac{Kw}{Ka}= \frac{1*10^{-14} }{4,57*10^{-3} }=2,19 * 10^{-12}

So, the Kb is 2,19*10⁻¹²

Have a nice day!

Hydroxyapatite, Ca 10 ( PO 4 ) 6 ( OH ) 2 Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 , has a solubility constant of Ksp = 2.34 × 10 − 59 2.34×10−59 , and d
Margarita [4]

Answer:

1.315x10⁻³M = [Ca²⁺]

Explanation:

Based in the reaction:

Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂(s) ⇄ 10Ca²⁺(aq) + 6PO₄³⁻(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

Solubility product, ksp, is defined as:

ksp = [Ca²⁺]¹⁰ [PO₄³⁻]⁶ [OH⁻]²

From 1 mole of hydroxyapatite are produced  10 moles of Ca²⁺ and 6 moles of PO₄³⁻. That means moles of PO₄³⁻ are:

6/10 Ca²⁺ = PO₄³⁻

Replacing in ksp formula:

ksp = [Ca²⁺]¹⁰ [0.6Ca²⁺]⁶ [OH⁻]²

As [OH⁻] is 2.50x10⁻⁶M and ksp is 2.34x10⁻⁵⁹:

2.34x10⁻⁵⁹ =  [Ca²⁺]¹⁰ [0.6Ca²⁺]⁶ [2.50x10⁻⁶]²

3.744x10⁻⁴⁸ = 0.046656[Ca²⁺]¹⁶

<em />

<em>1.315x10⁻³M = [Ca²⁺]</em>

<em />

I hope it helps!

Consider NH3 and PH3. Electronegativities: P = 2.1, H = 2.1, N=3.0. Which statement is false?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The P-H bonds are more polar than the N-H bonds.

Explanation:

Phosphine is a polar molecule with non-polar bonds. The phosphorus atom is bonded to three hydrogen atoms and the phosphorus atom has a lone pair of electrons. Since hydrogen and phosphorus are equal in electronegativity, it implies that they attract the shared pairs of electrons the same amount,hence bonding electrons are shared equally making the covalent bonds non-polar.

The lone pair of electrons on phosphorus causes the molecule to be asymmetrical with respect to charge distribution this is why the molecule is polar even though the are non-polar bonds in the molecule.

Looking at the values of electro negativity stated in the question, one can easily see that the difference in electro negativity between nitrogen and hydrogen is 0.9 while the difference in electro negativity between phosphorus and hydrogen is zero. It is clear that NH3 is naturally more polar than PH3 since each individual N-H bond in NH3 is a polar bond while the individual P-H bonds in PH3 are nonpolar.
