What do asbestos, radon, volatile organic compounds, carbon monoxide, and lead all have in common?

1 answer:

6 0

All of these are dangerous to the human body without some form of protection. Likely, they are all poisonous if ingested, or they can do damage over time (I’m only uncertain about “volatile organic compounds” because that’s really loose in description).

When filling a burette for a titration, adjust the burette so that______, preferably over a sink. Then,_______to add the titrant

artcher [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

When filling a burette for a titrant, adjust the burette so that the opening is near or below the eye leve preferably over the sink.

Then, use a funnel to add the titrant into the burette.

The titrant should be filled almost to the zero mark.

Determine if the following salt is neutral, acidic or basic. If acidic or basic, write the appropriate equilibrium equation for

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

It is neutral (NR)

Explanation:

Salts are formed when the ionizable hydrogens in an acid is replaced by metallic or ammonium ions from bases. The reaction is known as a neutralization reaction.

The nature of a salt formed from this reaction depends on the nature of the reacting acid and base.

If the reaction is between a strong acid and strong base, the salt produced is a neutral salt.

If the reaction occurs between a strong acid and a weak base, the salt produced is acidic.

If the reaction occurs between a strong base and a weak acid, the salt produced is a basic salt.

Considering the salt above, LiNO3.

On hydrolysis, addition of water, the following products are obtained:

LiNO3 + H2O ----> LiOH + HNO3

The products obtained, LiOH and HNO3 are a strong base and a strong acid respectively. Therefore, the salt, LiNO3, is a neutral salt.

Students working in lab accidentally spilled 17 l of 3.0 m h2so4 solution. they find a large container of acid neutralizer that

bogdanovich [222]

Answer is: 8568.71 of baking soda.

Balanced chemical reaction: H₂SO₄ + 2NaHCO₃ → Na₂SO₄ + 2CO₂ + 2H₂O.

V(H₂SO₄) = 17 L; volume of the sulfuric acid.

c(H₂SO₄) = 3.0 M, molarity of sulfuric acid.

n(H₂SO₄) = V(H₂SO₄) · c(H₂SO₄).

n(H₂SO₄) = 17 L · 3 mol/L.

n(H₂SO₄) = 51 mol; amount of sulfuric acid.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(H₂SO₄) : n(NaHCO₃) = 1 :2.

n(NaHCO₃) = 2 · 51 mol.

n(NaHCO₃) = 102 mol, amount of baking soda.

m(NaHCO₃) = n(NaHCO₃) · M(NaHCO₃).

m(NaHCO₃) = 102 mol · 84.007 g/mol.

m(NaHCO₃) = 8568.714 g; mass of baking soda.

A reaction container holds 5.77 g of P4 and 5.77 g of O2.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

a) O2 is the limiting reactant

b) 5.75 grams P4O10

c) 5.79 grams P4O6

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of P4 = 5.77 grams

Mass of O2 = 5.77 grams

Molar mass of P4 = 123.90 g/mol

Molar mass O2 = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

P4 + 3O2 → P4O6

Step 3: Calculate moles of P4

Moles P4 = mass P4 / molar mass P4

Moles P4 = 5.77 grams / 123.90 g/mol

Moles P4 = 0.0466 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles O2

Moles O2 = mass O2 / molar mass O2

Moles O2 = 5.77 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles O2 = 0.1803 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

P4 is the limiting reactant in this reaction. It will completely be consumed (0.0466 moles). O2 is in excess, there will react 3*0.0466 = 0.1398 moles

There will remain 0.1803 - 0.1398 = 0.0405 moles O2

Step 6: Calculate the amount of P4O6

For 1 mol P4 we'll have 1 mol P4O6

For 0.0466 moles P4 we'll have 0.0466 moles P4O6

Step 7: The balanced equatio

P4O6 + 2O2 → P4O10

We have 0.0466 moles P4O6 and 0.0405 moles O2

Step 8: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol P4O6 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol P4O10

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.0405 moles)

P4O6 is in excess. There will react 0.0405/2 = 0.02025 moles

There will remain 0.0466 - 0.02025 = 0.02635 moles P4O6

This is 0.02635 * 219.88 g/mol = 5.79 grams P4O6

Step 9: Calculate moles and mass of P4O10

For 1 mol P4O6 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol P4O10

For 0.0405 moles O2 we'll have 0.02025 moles P4O10

This is 0.02025 * 283.89 g/mol = 5.75 grams P4O10
