What will you observe if you add cuso4 to a solution containing glucose?

1 answer:

7 0

The blue color of copper (ii) sulfate will change to green, yellow, orange ,red and then a dark red or brown.
Glucose is a reducing sugar; reducing sugars are sugar that forms an aldehyde or ketone in the presence of an alkaline solution. Reducing sugars reduce the blue copper sulfate from the Benedict's solution to a red brown copper sulfide; which is seen as the precipitate and is responsible for the color change.

Two substances are combined and react. After 10 minutes, the chemical reaction has reached equilibrium. Which values would be eq

galina1969 [7]

The extra conversion of concentration of reactant and product should be zero in order to attaining equlibrium state.

<h3>What is equilibrium?</h3>

Chemical equilibrium refers to the state in which both the reactants and products are present in equal concentrations or amount. In equlibrium, same amount of reactant is converted into product and product into reactant.

So we can conclude that the extra conversion of concentration of reactant and product should be zero in order to attaining equlibrium state.

If acetic acid is the only acid that vinegar contains (ka=1.8×10−5), calculate the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar.

kicyunya [14]

Ethanoic (Acetic) acid is a weak acid and do not dissociate fully. Therefore its equilibrium state has to be considered here.

$CH_{3}COOH \ \textless \ ---\ \textgreater \ H^{+} + CH_{3}COO^{-}$

In this case pH value of the solution is necessary to calculate the concentration but it's not given here so pH = 2.88 (looked it up)

pH = 2.88 ==> $[H^{+}]$ = $10^{-2.88}$ = 0.001 $moldm^{-3}$

The change in Concentration Δ $[CH_{3}COOH]$ = 0.001 $moldm^{-3}$

  CH3COOH H+ CH3COOH
Initial   $moldm^{-3}$      $x$ 0 0

Change $moldm^{-3}$ -0.001 +0.001 +0.001

Equilibrium $moldm^{-3}$ $x$ - 0.001 0.001 0.001


Since the $k_{a}$ value is so small, the assumption
$[CH_{3}COOH]_{initial} = [CH_{3}COOH]_{equilibrium}$ can be made.

$k_{a} = [tex]= 1.8*10^{-5} = \frac{[H^{+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]} = \frac{0.001^{2}}{x}$

Solve for x to get the required concentration.

note: 1.)Since you need the answer in 2SF don&t round up values in the middle of the calculation like I've done here.

2.) The ICE (Initial, Change, Equilibrium) table may come in handy if you are new to problems of this kind

Hope this helps!
