Equal amounts of two acids - HCI and CH3COOH (acetic acid) - are placed in aqueous solution. When equilibrium is achieved, the HCI solution has a much greater conductivity than the acetic acid solution. Which reactions is more product-favored at equilibrium? Explain your answer in terms of your understanding of electrolytes.

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 HCl , 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 (g)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 150.mL of a 0.053 M HCl solution. What mass of NaHCO3 would she need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl ? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Suppose the concentration of the NaOH solution was 0.5 M instead of 0.1 M. Would this titration have required more, less, or the same amount of NaOH solution for a complete reaction? Suppose you used 0.5 M NaOH to titrate your vinegar sample instead of 0.1 M. What effect does the concentration of base added have on the reliability of the results of your titration? Consider a 0.238 M aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, How many individual hydroxide ions (OH−) are found in 23.46 mL and How many moles of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, are neutralized by 23.46 mL of 0.238 M NaOH(aq)? [Hint: begin by writing a balanced equation for this neutralization reaction.]
Much of the sulfur used in the United States comes from the hydrogen sulfide contaminant that makes "sour" natural gas smell bad. Hydrogen sulfide is separated from the other components of natural gas mostly by taking advantage of its acid-base reaction with aqueous ethanolamine: HO(CH,),NH,(aq)+H,S(g) → HO(CH,),NH,(aq)+HS (aq) Suppose an engineer decides to study the rate of this reaction. She prepares four reaction vessels with 167.6 mL of ethanolamine solution and 20.9 g of hydrogen sulfide gas each. The volume and temperature of each vessel is shown in the table below. Arrange the reaction vessels in decreasing order of initial rate of reaction. In other words, select a "1" next to the vessel in which the engineer can reasonably expect the initial rate of reaction to be highest, a "2" next to the vessel in which the initial rate of reaction would be next highest, and so on. vessel volume temperature A B C D 5.0 L 5.0 L 5.0 L 5.0 L 49, °C 48. °C 51. °C 50. °C X initial rate of…
