12. In an experiment, 28.0mL of 0.250M HNO3 and 53.0mL of 0.320M KOH are mixed. Calculate the amount of water formed (in grams), and the concentration of excess ion that is involved in the reaction. Hint: write both the balanced molecular and net ionic equations for this reaction. - H20(1) + KNO3(aq) KOH(aq) + HNO3(aq) K*(aq) + OH (aq) + H*(aq) + NO; (aq) → H2O(1) + K*(aq) + NO3 (aq) H*(aq) + OH (aq) Molecular: Total ionic: Net ionic: - H20(1) This is a limiting reagent problem so we need to find which reactant is present in smaller stoichiometric amount. Using the information provided and the balanced chemical equation, we find that HNO3 is limiting and the hydroxide ion, OH, is present in excess. Mass of H2O formed = 0.126 g Moles OH excess = moles OH start - moles OHreacted Moles OH excess = 0.01696-0.0070 = 0.00996 moles OH- [OH excess] = 0.00996 moles /0.0810 L = 0.123 M OH-
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
My question is, for the part underlined in purple, why are we looking for excess OH- and not excess KOH? Does this have to do with the net equation?
