Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to three significant figures. This balanced equation shows the reaction

of sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid: 2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O. In a laboratory experiment, a student mixes 355 grams of sulfuric acid with an excess of sodium hydroxide. What is the theoretical mass of sodium sulfate produced? Refer to the periodic table and the polyatomic ion resource. The theoretical mass of sodium sulfate is grams.

Answer:

514.5 g.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of the reaction is: 2NaOH + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.
  • It is clear that every 2.0 moles of NaOH react with 1.0 mole of H₂SO₄ to produce 1.0 mole of Na₂SO₄ and 2.0 moles of 2H₂O.
  • Since NaOH is in excess, so H₂SO₄  is the limiting reactant.
  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of 355.0 g of H₂SO₄:

n of H₂SO₄ = mass/molar mass = (355.0 g)/(98.0 g/mol) = 3.622 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

∵ 1.0 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 1.0 mol of Na₂SO₄.

∴ 3.622 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 3.662 mol of Na₂SO₄.

  • Now, we can get the theoretical mass of Na₂SO₄:

∴ mass of Na₂SO₄ =  no. of moles x molar mass = (3.662 mol)(142.04 g/mol) = 514.5 g.

The density of phosphorus vapor at 310 degrees celcius and 775 mmHg is 2.64g/L. what is the molecular formula of the phosphorus
lidiya [134]

Answer:

The molecular formula of the phosphorus is P4

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Density of phosphorus vapor at 310 °C and 775 mmHg = 2.64g /L

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the molecular weight

We assume phosphorus to be an ideal gas

So p*V = n*R*T

 ⇒ with p = the pressure of phosphorus = 775 mmHg

⇒ with V = the Volume

⇒ with n = the number of moles = mass/molecular weight

⇒ with R = ideal gas constant  = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the absolute temperature

p*V = m/MW *R*T

MW = mRT/PV

 ⇒ Since the volume is unknown but can be written as density = mass/volume

MW = dRT/P

MW = (2.64g/L * 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol * 583 Kelvin)/1.0197 atm

MW = 123.86 g/mol

<u>Step 3</u>: Calculate molecular formula of phosphorus

The relative atomic mass of phosphorus = 30.97 u

123.86 / 30.97 = 4

The molecular formula of the phosphorus is P4

For the reaction of oxygen and nitrogen to form nitric oxide, consider the following thermodynamic data (Due to variations in th
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

a. 7278 K

b. 4.542 × 10⁻³¹

Explanation:

a.

Let´s consider the following reaction.

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2 NO(g)

The reaction is spontaneous when:

ΔG° < 0  [1]

Let's consider a second relation:

ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS° [2]

Combining [1] and [2],

ΔH° - T × ΔS° < 0

ΔH° < T × ΔS°

T > ΔH°/ΔS°

T > (180.5 × 10³ J/mol)/(24.80 J/mol.K)

T >  7278 K

b.

First, we will calculate ΔG° at 25°C + 273.15 = 298 K

ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS°

ΔG° = 180.5 kJ/mol - 298 K × 24.80 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K

ΔG° = 173.1 kJ/mol

We can calculate the equilibrium constant using the following expression.

ΔG° = - R × T × lnK

lnK = - ΔG° / R × T

lnK = - 173.1 × 10³ J/mol / (8.314 J/mol.K) × 298 K

K = 4.542 × 10⁻³¹

The activation energy for the reaction NO2(g)+CO(g)⟶NO(g)+CO2(g) is Ea = 375 kJ/mol and the change in enthalpy for the reaction
HACTEHA [7]
Answer: 625 kj/mol

Explanation:

As shown below this expression gives the activation energy of the reverse reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

1) The activation energy, EA is the difference between the potential energies of the reactants and the transition state:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of the reactants.

2) The activation energy of the forward reaction given is:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of  [ NO2(g) + CO(g) ] = 75 kj/mol

3) The negative enthalpy change - 250 kj / mol for the forward reaction means that the products are below in the potential energy diagram, and that the potential energy of the products, [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] is equal to 375 kj / mol - 250 kj / mol = 125 kj/mol

4) For the reverse reaction the reactants are [NO(g) + CO2(g)], and the transition state is the same than that for the forward reaction.

5) The difference of energy between the transition state and the potential energy of [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] will be the absolute value of the change of enthalpy plus the activation energy for the forward reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

EA reverse reaction = 375 kj / mol + |-250 kj/mol | = 375 kj/mol + 250 kj/mol = 625 kj/mol.

And that is the answer, 625 kj/mol

We know from the relative amounts of 16O and 18O that global temperatures and global climate have changed over time. Why is it i
Andru [333]

Answer:

In order to take steps by humans for controlling the change in climate.

Explanation:

It is important that scientist find out the change which occurs in the climate with the passage of time by performing experiments and also repeat the experiments in order to verify their findings. Due to these experiments, scientists also find out the reasons behind of climate change which enable us to take steps in preventing the change that occurs in the environment. it is also important for scientists to be able to explain how they know that climate has changed over time in order to explain that he is not assuming or making predictions, he has to provide evidence for his statement which is only be possible through experiments.
