What Are the Correct Answers to These Basic Chemistry Practice Questions?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on basic chemistry practice questions, specifically focusing on stoichiometry and molarity calculations. For the reaction between NaOH and H2SO4, the correct answer is 40mL of H2SO4, derived using the normality equation N1V1=N2V2. The molarity of a 2.00g NaCl solution in 100 mL of water is approximately 0.34M. Additionally, the correct name-formula pair for a compound is SeCl6 - Selenium hexachloride. Participants also discussed the conditions under which no chemical reaction occurs in various aqueous mixtures.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of stoichiometry and chemical reactions
  • Knowledge of molarity and normality calculations
  • Familiarity with naming conventions for chemical compounds
  • Basic principles of aqueous solutions and solubility
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the concept of normality in acid-base reactions
  • Learn how to calculate molarity from mass and volume
  • Explore the naming conventions for ionic and covalent compounds
  • Investigate common aqueous reactions and their outcomes
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and anyone preparing for chemistry tests or seeking to improve their understanding of basic chemical principles.

I'm really no good at Chemistry, and these are practice questions to our test tomorrow (with no answers, which is pretty worthless )

5. A 10mL solution of 1.0M NaOH is required to react completely with how many mL of a 0.25M solution of H2SO4?
a) 20mL
b) 40mL
c) 160mL
d) 4mL
e) 10mL

I think D, though I'm probably wrong.

10. A mixture of 2.00g of NaCl and enough water (H2O) to result in 100 mL of solution will have what molarity?
a) 2.00M
b) 0.034M
c) 0.058M
d) 0.34M
e) 0.58M

I don't even know where to start with this one :(

11. In which of the following name-formula pairs do both items correctly name the same compound?

a) SeCl6 - Selenium hexachloride
b) Br2O5 - Dibromide pentoxide
c) F2O7 - Fluorine septoxide
d) Ba(OH)2 - Barium dihydrate
e) P4S10 - Quatraphosphoric decasulfide

I have it narrowed down between A and B, they both seem to work, though I am leaning towards A?

20. In which of the following aqueous mixtures will no chemical reaction occur?
a) Hg(NO3)2 (aq) + Na2(SO4) (aq) ->
b) Na3(PO4) (aq) + Sr(NO3)2 (aq) ->
c) Na2CO3 (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq) ->
d) (NH4)2S (aq) + CaI2 (aq) ->
e) ZnSO4 (aq) + MgCl2 (aq) ->

No idea, think it's E though?

21. In the following reaction: 2HBr (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq) -> BaBr2(?) + 2H2O(?)
a) Ba(OH)2 is a weak base
b) H2O is a spectator ion in this reaction
c) HBr is a strong acid and Ba(OH)2 is a strong base
d) HBr is a weak acid
e) BaBr2 is insoluble and precpitates

Think it's C

That's all for the moment, thanks :/

what am I, a leper or something? :D
 
Just make a formula that will cancel all the units and it will work out fine. ALWAYS WRITE THE UNITS when you are doing anything in chemistry.

I got 40mL, which is B

I got 0.348M which is close to D

11. In which of the following name-formula pairs do both items correctly name the same compound?

a) SeCl6 - Selenium hexachloride
b) Br2O5 - Dibromide pentoxide
c) F2O7 - Fluorine septoxide

e) P4S10 - Quatraphosphoric decasulfide

The answer is A (or at least I think it is).

20. In which of the following aqueous mixtures will no chemical reaction occur?
a) Hg(NO3)2 (aq) + Na2(SO4) (aq) ->
b) Na3(PO4) (aq) + Sr(NO3)2 (aq) ->
c) Na2CO3 (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq) ->
d) (NH4)2S (aq) + CaI2 (aq) ->
e) ZnSO4 (aq) + MgCl2 (aq) ->

No idea, think it's E though?

This question I don't know. My redox table doesn't list most of those (like SO4, NO3, Sr, CO3).

21. In the following reaction: 2HBr (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq) -> BaBr2(?) + 2H2O(?)
a) Ba(OH)2 is a weak base
b) H2O is a spectator ion in this reaction
c) HBr is a strong acid and Ba(OH)2 is a strong base
d) HBr is a weak acid
e) BaBr2 is insoluble and precpitates

Think it's C

I too think it's C.

and yes, you are a leper
 
I got 40mL, which is B

Nope u are using molarity equation instead of normality
it should be

N1V1=N2V2
So u have 10*1=2*0,25*V2

V2= 10/0,5=20mL

Oh yeah, 2 to 1 ratio. Sorry about that. Subscripts DO make it easier to read :D

Do you know what the answer to that reaction one is?
