Sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3), also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. Acid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid (HCI), which the stomach secretes to help digest food. Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO3 neutralizes excess HCl through this reaction: HCl(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) + CO₂(9) The CO2 gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution. Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a woman suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 250. mL of a 0.076 M HCl solution. What mass of NaHCO3 would she need to ingest to neutralize this much HCI ? Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

One half liter (500. mL) of 2.50 M HCl is mixed with 250. mL of 3.75 M HCl. Assuming the total solution volume after mixing is 750. mL, what is the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the resulting solution? What is its pH?
Most naturally occurring acids are weak acids. Lactic acid is one example. CH3CH(OH)CO2H(s)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+CH3CH(OH)CO2(aq) If you place some lactic acid in water, it will ionize to a small extent, and an equilibrium will be established. Suggest some experiments to prow that this is a weak acid and that the establishment of equilibrium is a reversible process.

Use the appropriate tables to calculate H for (a) the reaction between MgC03(s) and a strong acid to give Mg2+(aq), CO2(g), and water. (b) the precipitation of iron(III) hydroxide from the reaction between iron(III) and hydroxide ions.
A mountain lake that is 4.0 km × 6.0 km with an average depth of 75 m has an H+(aq) concentration of 1.3 × 10−6 M. Calculate the mass of calcium carbonate that would have to be added to the lake to change the H+(aq) concentration to 6.3 × 10−8 M. Assume that all the carbonate is converted to carbon dioxide, which bubbles out of the solution.

Complete each of these reactions by filling in the blanks. Predict whether each reaction is product-favored or reactant-favored, and explain your reasoning. (a) _________ (aq) + Br(aq) NH3(aq) + HBr(aq) (b) CH3COOH(aq) + CN(aq) ________ (aq) + HCN(aq) (c) ________ (aq)+H2O () NH3(aq) + OH(aq)
Vitamin C has the formula C6H8O6. Besides being an acid, it is a reducing agent. One method for determining the amount of vitamin C in a sample is to titrate it with a solution of bromine, Br2, an oxidizing agent. C6H8O6(aq) + Br2(aq) 2 HBr(aq) + C6H6O6(aq) A 1.00-g "chewable" vitamin C tablet requires 27.85 ml of 0.102 M Br2 for titration to the equivalence point. What is the mass of vitamin C in the tablet?
