In step 6, khp was dissolved in a trivial amount of deionized h2o prior to titration with naoh. why was it acceptable to use an

approximate volume of h2o when this solution was used to determine the exact amount of naoh that was neutralized?

Water acts as solvent and it has no effect on the amount of the acid or the titrating agent. 
<span>Also, the concentration of the titrating agent must be known exactly, the amount of solvent is less important (the more diluted it is, the more accurate is the titration).</span>

At 4.00 L, an expandable vessel contains 0.864 mol of oxygen gas. How many liters of oxygen gas must be added at constant temper
fgiga [73]

Answer:

We have to add 2.30 L of oxygen gas

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume = 4.00 L

Number of moles oxygen gas= 0.864 moles

Temperature = constant

Number of moles of oxygen gas increased to 1.36 moles

Step 2: Calculate new volume

V1/n1 = V2/n2

⇒V1 = the initial volume of the vessel = 4.00 L

⇒n1 = the initial number of moles oxygen gas = 0.864 moles

⇒V2 = the nex volume of the vessel

⇒n2 = the increased number of moles oxygen gas = 1.36 moles

4.00L / 0.864 moles = V2 / 1.36 moles

V2 = 6.30 L

The new volume is 6.30 L

Step 3: Calculate the amount of oxygen gas we have to add

6.30 - 4.00 = 2.30 L

We have to add 2.30 L of oxygen gas

6. From the values of ΔH and ΔS, predict which of the following reactions would be spontaneous at 25ºC: Reaction A: ΔH = 10.5 kJ
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Both reaction A and reaction B are non spontaneous.

Explanation:

For a spontaneous reaction, change in gibbs free energy (\Delta G) should be negative.

We know, \Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S, where T is temperature in Kelvin scale.

Reaction A: \Delta G=(10.5\times 10^{3})-(298\times 30)J/mol=1560J/mol

As \Delta G is positive therefore the reaction is non-spontaneous.

If at a temperature T K , the reaction is spontaneous then-

\Delta H-T\Delta S< 0

or, T> \frac{\Delta H}{\Delta S}

or, T> \frac{10.5\times 10^{3}}{30}

or, T> 350

So at a temperature greater than 350 K, the reaction is spontaneous.

Reaction B: \Delta G=(1.8\times 10^{3})-(-113\times 298)J/mol=35474J/mol

As \Delta G is positive therefore the reaction is non-spontaneous.

If at a temperature T K , the reaction is spontaneous then-

\Delta H-T\Delta S< 0

or, T> \frac{\Delta H}{\Delta S}

or, T> \frac{1.8\times 10^{3}}{-113}

or, T> -16

So at a temperature greater than -16 K, the reaction is spontaneous.

What is the difference in height between the top surface of the glycerin and the top surface of the alcohol? Suppose that the de
Snezhnost [94]

Here is the full question

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20 cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm until the height of the alcohol column is 10 cm. The two liquids do not mix.

What is the difference in height between the top surface of the glycerin and the top surface of the alcohol? Suppose that the density of glycerin is 1260 kg/m3and the density of alcohol is 790 kg/m3.

Express your answer in two significant figures and include the appropriate units (in cm)

Answer:

ΔH ≅ 3.73 cm

Explanation:

The pressure inside a liquid is known as hydrostatic pressure and which is represent by the formula:

P =   ρ × g × h

where;

ρ is the density of the fluid

g is the gravitational constant

h is the height from the surface

From the question above;

For glycerine; we have:

density of glycerine = 1260 kg/m³

gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s²

height = ???

∴

P_{(g)= 1260kg/m^3}*9.8m/s^2*h_g   ----- equation (1)

On the other hand for alcohol:

density of alcohol is given as = 790 kg/m³

gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s²

height = 10 cm

∴

P_{(a)= 790kg/m^3*9.8m/s^2*10           ----------- equation (2)

if we equate equation 1 and 2 together; we have

P_{(g)= P_{(a)

1260kg/m^3}*9.8m/s^2*h_g = 790kg/m^3*9.8m/s^2*10cm

Making h_g the subject of the formula, we have :

h_g= \frac{ 790kg/m^3*9.8m/s^2*10cm}{1260kg/m^3*9.8m/s^2}

h_g = 6.269 cm

The difference in the height denoted  by ΔH can therefore be calculated as:

ΔH = H_a-H_g

ΔH = 10cm - 6.269cm

ΔH = 3.731 cm

ΔH ≅ 3.73 cm           (to two significant figures)
