A bottle containing 1,665 g of sulfuric acid (H2SO4, 98.08 g/mol) was spilled in a laboratory. The emergency spill kit contained

a full 2.0 kg bottle of sodium carbonate (105.99 g/mol). Is this enough sodium carbonate to neutralize the acid, according to the following reaction
H2SO4(aq) + Na2CO3(s) → Na2SO4(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

A. Yes, there is more than enough sodium carbonate.
B. Yes, there is exactly enough sodium carbonate-but no excess.
C. No, there is not enough sodium carbonate, but the amount is only about 10% too small.
D. No, there is not nearly enough sodium carbonate.
E. No, the reaction will start going backwards.

Answer: Yes, there is sufficient sodium carbonate available.

Explanation:

In this scenario, according to the specified reaction:

Using stoichiometry, one can figure out the grams of sodium carbonate required to neutralize 1,665 g of sulfuric acid as outlined below:

H_2SO_4(aq) + Na_2CO_3(s) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq) + CO_2(g) + H_2O(l)

Hence, the amount on hand is 2.0 kg, which leaves 0.2 kg as surplus, therefore:

A. Yes, there is sufficient sodium carbonate available.

1,665gH_2SO_4*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{98.08gH_2SO_4}*\frac{1molNa_2CO_3}{1molH_2SO_4} *\frac{105.99gNa_2CO_3}{1molNa_2CO_3}*\frac{1kgNa_2CO_3}{1000gNa_2CO_3}\\m_{Na_2CO_3}=1.80gNa_2CO_3Best regards.

A characteristic feature of any form of chromatography is the ________.a. calculation of an Rf value for the molecules separated
castortr0y [2916]

Answer: The right choice is (c) application of both a mobile phase and a stationary phase.

Explanation:

Chromatography: This refers to a technique for separating a mixture where the mixture is distributed between two phases at varying rates, one being stationary and the other moving.

Mobile phase: The component in which the mixture is dissolved is referred to as the mobile phase.

Stationary phase: This is an adsorbent medium that remains in place while a liquid or gas passes over its surface, thus remaining stationary.

Consequently, a key characteristic of any chromatography technique involves utilizing both a mobile and a stationary phase.

A student puts 0.020 mol of methyl methanoate into an empty and rigid 1.0 L vessel at 450 K. The pressure is measured to be 0.74
KiRa [2857]

Explanation:

Initial moles of ethanoic acid = 0.020 mol

At equilibrium, half of the ethanoic acid molecules have reacted.

Thus, moles of ethanoic acid reacted = 0.020 mol * (50% / 100%)

                                                                     = 0.010 mol

Moles of ethanoic acid remaining = 0.020 mol - 0.010 mol = 0.010 mol

The moles of product (CH3COOH)^{2} gas formed are determined as follows:

0.010 mol CH3COOH * (1 mol (CH3COOH)^{2} / 2 mol CH3COOH)

= 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

Consequently, the total moles of gas present in the vessel at equilibrium are 0.010 mol CH3COOH and 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

Total gas moles at equilibrium = 0.010 mol + 0.005 mol = 0.015 mol

Next, let’s determine the pressure:

0.020 mol of gas has a pressure of 0.74 atm; so under the same conditions, we find the pressure exerted by 0.015 mol of gas:

P1/n1 = P2/n2

P2 = P1*(n2 / n1)

      = 0.74 atm * (0.015 mol / 0.020 mol)

     = 0.555 atm

Why does 5060 have three significant figures?
Anarel [2728]

5060 has three significant figures: Below is the clarification

Explanation:

Significant figures

Significant figures (also referred to as significant digits and decimal places) in a number are those digits that carry substantial meaning.

These include all digits except: leading zeros.

Guidelines for determining significant figures

1. All non-zero digits are counted as significant. For instance, the number 23 has two significant figures.

2. Zeros located between two non-zero digits are significant; for example, 202.1201 contains seven significant figures.

3. Zeros preceding the significant figures are not significant. For example,.000021 has two significant figures, with zeros being non-contributory.

4. Zeros following the significant figures are significant.

This explains why the number 5060 has three significant figures.

A 1.34 mole sample of LiCl dissolves in water, The volume of the final
eduard [2645]

Response:

1.56 \,\,mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of a solute contained in one liter of solution.

Molarity = volume of the solution in liters/number of moles of solute present in the solution

The volume of the solution is 0.86 L

Additionally, a sample of 1.34 moles of LiCl dissolves in the solvent

Thus,

Molarity of the Solution =

\frac{1.34}{0.86}=1.56 \,\,mol/L
