Chapter 4: Problem 5
Water is an extremely weak electrolyte and therefore cannot conduct electricity. Why are we often cautioned not to operate electrical appliances when our hands are wet?

Get started for freeA \(3.664-\mathrm{g}\) sample of a monoprotic acid was dissolved in water and required \(20.27 \mathrm{~mL}\) of a \(0.1578 \mathrm{M}\) \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) solution for neutralization. Calculate the molar mass of the acid.
Describe the steps involved in preparing a solution of known molar concentration using a volumetric flask.
Calculate the volume in \(\mathrm{mL}\) of a solution required to provide the following: (a) \(2.14 \mathrm{~g}\) of sodium chloride from a \(0.270 \mathrm{M}\) solution, (b) \(4.30 \mathrm{~g}\) of ethanol from a \(1.50 M\) solution, (c) 0.85 g of acetic acid ( \(\left.\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH}\right)\) from a \(0.30 \mathrm{M}\) solution.
Define solute, solvent, and solution by describing the process of dissolving a solid in a liquid.
Someone spilled concentrated sulfuric acid on the floor of a chemistry laboratory. To neutralize the acid, would it be preferable to pour concentrated sodium hydroxide solution or spray solid sodium bicarbonate over the acid? Explain your choice and the chemical basis for the action
