Sodium Hydroxide can react with sulfuric acid in an acid base reaction. Outline the equation for this reaction, name the product. Finally a titration reaction is conducted. Determine the mass of NaOH needed to neutralise 12.4cm^3 of 0.10moldm^-3 H2SO4.

The equation is outlined below: 2NaOH + H 2 SO 4 ------->> Na 2 SO 4 + 2H 2 OAs explained in the question this is an acid base reaction, where the sodium hydroxide is the base and the sulphuric acid is...

Differentiate (2^x)(5x^2+5x)^2.

This is a relatively difficult equation to differentiate as there are various parts to consider.Firstly, we will let u=2^x and v=(5x^2+5x)^2 in the product rule. Then the differential of u is (2^x)ln(2). We ...

Explain why benzene requires use of a halogen carrier catalyst to react with bromine while phenol does not.

The oxygen atom in the phenol molecule has a lone pair of electrons. These electrons become delocalised into the aromatic ring, increasing its electron density. This activates the ring. This causes Br 2 mole...
