Full Question:
A flask containing 420 Ml of 0.450 M HBr was accidentally knocked to the floor.?
How many grams of K2CO3 would you need to put on the spill to neutralize the acid according to the following equation?
2HBr(aq)+K2CO3(aq) ---> 2KBr(aq) + CO1(g) + H2O(l)
Answer:
13.1 g K2CO3 required to neutralize spill
Explanation:
2HBr(aq) + K2CO3(aq) → 2KBr(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Number of moles = Volume * Molar Concentration
moles HBr= 0.42L x .45 M= 0.189 moles HBr
From the stoichiometry of the reaction;
1 mole of K2CO3 reacts with 2 moles of HBr
1 mole = 2 mole
x mole = 0.189
x = 0.189 / 2 = 0.0945 moles
Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass
Mass = 0.0945 * 138.21 = 13.1 g
If it is heated while it is being compressed or held inside a container as such, the pressure build up while in the container and the pressure can become so much that the container will burst.
Answer:
Salts and acids are examples of inorganic compounds called <u><em>electrolytes</em></u>.
Explanation:
Electrolytes are the substances which dissociates into ions when dissolved in water and due to this they are able to conduct electric current through them. These compounds in solid form does not conduct electricity due to the absence of free ions.
For example: Sodium chloride , sulfuric acid etc.


Answer :
Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule. The electrons are represented by dot.
The given molecule is, perbromate ion.
Bromine has '7' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electron.
Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in perbromate ion,
= 7 + 4(6) + 1 = 32
According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 14 number of bonding electrons and 18 number of non-bonding electrons.
Formula for formal charge :

The Lewis-dot structure of perbromate ion is shown below.
