1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoHelp Balancing an equation in basic solution?
In basic solution, aluminum metal is a strong reducing agent and is oxidized to AlO2-. Give balanced equations for the reaction of Al in basic solution with the following.
(a) NaNO3, to give ammonia
My Answer: NO3- + 3Al + 3OH- → NH3 + 3AlO2-
(b) water, to give hydrogen
My Answer: ???
(c) Na2SnO3, to give metallic tin
My Answer: Na2SnO3 + H2O + Al → Sn + Na+ + OH- + AlO2-
I know my answers for a and c are wrong but i dont know why, any help would be appreciated
1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoI need help balancing these chemical equations?
Complete and balance the following equations. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Include states-of-matter under SATP conditions in your answer.)
Na(s) + O2(g) →
For this one I put:
4Na(s) + O2(g) --> 2Na2O(s)
And i got the following error:
Your answer contains an improperly or incompletely formatted chemical formula. Your answer is missing one or more subscripts or superscripts.
K(s) + O2(g) →
For this one I put:
4K(s) + O2(g) --> 2K2O(s)
And I got the following error:
The reaction described in your answer is not balanced. Parts of a product formula in your answer appear to be transposed.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong...

1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoBuffers and Common Ion Effect Help?
The questions states that there is a benzoate buffer which is 0.18 M in benzoic acid (C6H5OOH) and 0.18 M in benzoate ion (C6H5OO‾ ), giving a pH of 4.19. Calculate the pH if 1.3 mL of 1.5 M NaOH(aq) was added to 193 mL of the buffer solution.
Im not sure whether to use ice diagrams or the henderson hasselbach equation. When i did this my answer came out to 4.74 which was wrong. Can anyone explain how to do this?
2 AnswersChemistry1 decade agoHelp Calculating pH (sig figs...)?
I was asked to calculate the pH of the following solution:
7.1 x 10-4 M Ba(OH)2
So I did the following: kw = ka x kb
ka = 1.0 x 10-14/7.1 x 10-4 = 1.408 x 10-11
-log(1.401 x 10-11) = 10.85125
Now I have tried the following answer: 10.85, 10.9, 10.74(random guess) and I've gotten the following response
Your answer is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error.

1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoChemistry Help (Sig Fig Rules with Log)?
I am suppose to calculate H+ concentrations with the following pH values and answer should have the appropriate sig figs. I posted my answers below. Any help would be appreciated
H+ = 10^(-2.54) = .00288
H+ = 10^(-11.07) = 8.511e-12
H+ = 10^(-6.56) = 2.75e-7
H+ = 10^(-15.00) = 1.00e-15
2 AnswersChemistry1 decade agoSignificant Figures (Chemistry) Help?
Hey I was asked to calculate the pH of 0.0080 M HCl with the correct sig figs. So I did -log(.0080) which was equal to 2.0969. Now i thought that .0080 had 2 sig figs and therefore meant that the correct pH was 2.1 but that was marked incorrect. Can anyone please tell me the correct answer with the correct number of sig figs?
