20cm3 of 0.5moldm-3 of HCL is diluted by adding 15cm3 of water. This diluted solution is titrated against a 0.3moldm-3 solution of NaOH. What is the volume of the NaOH in cm3 required to reach the endpoint of the titration?

We need to calculate how many moles of HCl are being titrated. This is the volume in dm3 times the concentration (trick: you can do dimensional analysis if unsure of the formula): number of moles of HCl = 0....

The enthalpy change for the forward reaction is -92kJ/mol. State and explain how the value of Kp would change if the temperature was increased.

The value of Kp would decrease.Using Le Chatelier's principle the position of equilibrium would shift so as to oppose the change.The endothermic (backward) reaction would therefore be favoured in order to re...

Give and explain 2 of the anomalous properties of ice caused by hydrogen bonding

Compared to water ice is less dense this is due to hydrogen bonds in the open lattice holding the H 2 O molecules apart whereas in liquid form the hydrogen bonds break allowing the molecules of water to be c...

What shape does XeF4 take?

Molecular shape depends on the number of electron pairs around the central atom. Electrons are negatively charged and so each of the electron pairs will repel each other. Lone pairs tend to repel more than b...
