25cm3 of NaOH (2M) were titrated with 1.25M H2SO4. Write down the balanced reaction equation. Calculate the number of moles of NaOH used in the titration and hence deduce the volume of sulfuric acid used in the titration. Give your answer in dm3.

2NaOH + H2SO4 -> 2H2O + Na2SO4. moles = concentration x volume. #moles NaOH = 2M x (25/1000)dm3 = 0.05 mol. The reaction equations shows the ratio of alkali to acid is 2:1. The number of moles of H2SO4...

How to answer the question: How does a bicarbonate buffer solution control pH when either an acid or a base is added?

A buffer solution is resistant to changes in pH upon the addition of relatively small amounts of acid or base. In this case, the equilibrium resisting changes to the pH is: H2CO3 <-> H+ + HCO3-.

balance this equation C8H18 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

First split the equation in half. write down the number of each element there is on either side and then see how many more of that atom you need. make sure that there is the same number of carbons oxygens...

what is the shape and bond angle of NH3 and use VSEPR theory to explain the bond angle.

NH3 has a bond angle of 107 degrees and is pyramidal this is because it has 3 bonded pairs and 1 lone pair. the lone pair repels more than the bonded pairs and this results in the bond angle being 107 deg...

Why is Copper used in cooking equipment and wiring?

Copper is a metal, it therefore has delocalised electrons, i.e. e- which have come away from the atom, which can move through the solid metal allowing it to conduct heat and electricity. Other properties ...
