PH is used to measure the acidity of a substance and it can be used to calculate the amount of H+ ions in a solution. pH is expressed as:

pH = -log [H+]
For a normal rain:
5.5 = -log [H+]
[H+] = 1 x 10^-5 M

For an acid rain:
1.5 = -log [H+]
[H+] = 0.03 M

The equilibrium constant for the reaction is 1.1 x 106 M. HONO(aq) + CN-(aq) ⇋ HCN(aq) + ONO-(aq) This value indicates that
kakasveta [241]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is given here :

The equilibrium constant for the reaction is 1.1\times 10^6 M.

HONO(aq)+CN^- (aq)\rightleftharpoons HCN(aq)+ONO^-(aq)

This value indicates that

A. CN^- is a stronger base than ONO^-

B. HCN is a stronger acid than HONO

C. The conjugate base of HONO is ONO^-

D. The conjugate acid of CN- is HCN

Answer: A. CN^- is a stronger base than ONO^-

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of product of the concentration of products to the product of concentration of reactants.

When K_{p}>1; the reaction is product favoured.

When K_{p}; ; the reaction is reactant favored.

When K_{p}=1; the reaction is in equilibrium.

As, K_p>>1, the reaction will be product favoured and as it is a acid base reaction where HONO acts as acid by donating H^+ ions and CN^- acts as base by accepting H^+

Thus HONO is a strong acid thus ONO^- will be a weak conjugate base and CN^- is a strong base which has weak HCN conjugate acid.

Thus the high value of K indicates that CN^- is a stronger base than ONO^-

The chlorination of methane occurs in a number of steps that results in the formation of chloromethane and hydrogen chloride. Th
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Total pressure = 0,806 atm

Partial pressure of CH₄: 0,037 atm

Partial pressure of Cl₂: 0,396 atm

Partial pressure of CH₃Cl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of HCl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of Cl⁻: 0,125 atm

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2CH₄(g)+3Cl₂(g)⟶2CH₃Cl(g)+2HCl(g)+2Cl⁻(g)

295 mL≡ 0,295L of methane at STP are:

n = PV/RT

P = 1 atm; V = 0,295L; R = 0,082atmL/molK; T = 273K.

moles of methane: 0,0132 moles

For 725 mL of chlorine ≡ 0,725L

moles of chlorine at STP are: ≡ 0,0324 moles

For a complete reaction of 0,0132 moles of CH₄:

0,0132 mol CH₄× \frac{3molCl_{2}}{2 molCH_{4}} = <em>0,0198 moles</em>

The reaction reaches 77%, moles of Cl₂ that react are: 0,0198×77% = 0,0153 mol

As you have 0,0324 moles of Cl₂, moles that will not react are:

0,0324 - 0,0153 = <em>0,0171 mol Cl₂</em>

As the reaction reaches 77% completion, moles of CH₄ that react are:

0,0132×77% =<em> 0,0102 moles of CH₄ And the moles that don't react are </em><em>0,00300 mol</em>

Thus, moles of each compound are:

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{3Cl_{2}}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0153 mol  + 0,0171 mol = 0,0324 mol Cl₂</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2CH_{3}Cl}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol CH₄</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2HCl}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol HCl</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2Cl^{-}}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol Cl⁻</em>

Total pressure using:

P = nRT/V

Where: n = 0,0102mol×3+0,0324mol + 0,0030mol = 0,0660mol; R = 0,082 atmL/molK; T = 298K; V = 2L

Total pressure = 0,806 atm

Partial pressure of CH₄: 0,037 atm

Partial pressure of Cl₂: 0,396 atm

Partial pressure of CH₃Cl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of HCl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of Cl⁻: 0,125 atm

<em>-To obtain partial pressure you change the moles for each compound-</em>

I hope it helps!

g When 2.50 g of methane (CH4) burns in oxygen, 125 kJ of heat is produced. What is the enthalpy of combustion (in kJ) per mole
Anna [14]

Answer:

-800 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we have to express the enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc) in kJ per mole (kJ/mol).

First, we have to calculate the moles of methane (CH₄) there are in 2.50 g of substance. For this, we divide the mass into the molecular weight Mw) of CH₄:

Mw(CH₄) = 12 g/mol C + (1 g/mol H x 4) = 16 g/mol

moles CH₄ = mass CH₄/Mw(CH₄)= 2.50 g/(16 g/mol) = 0.15625 mol CH₄

Now, we divide the heat released into the moles of CH₄ to obtain the enthalpy per mole of CH₄:

ΔHc = heat/mol CH₄ = 125 kJ/(0.15625 mol) = 800 kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of methane is -800 kJ/mol (the minus sign indicated that the heat is released).
