    2. \(H_2SO_{4\;(aq)} + Ca(OH)_{2\;(aq)} \rightarrow\)

    3.2

    Balance the following redox reaction in basic conditions with state symbols.

    \[H_2O_{(l)} + Na_{(s)} \rightarrow Na^+_{(aq)} + H_{2\;(g)}\]

    3.3

    In a lab experiment, a 20.00 ml \(HNO_2\) solution was titrated with \(0.1234\; M\) sodium hydroxide solution, and the equivalence point was reached when 43.21 ml of this basic solution was added. What is the original molarity of the \(HNO_2\) solution?

    3.4

    What is the required mL of 1.25 M \(HBr\) necessary to completely neutralize a 175 mL sample of 2.38 M \(Mg(OH)_2\)?

    The density of uranium hexafluoride is 12.6 g/L at 745 torr. What is the temperature in °C under these condition?

    3.8

    A constant-volume container has 2.00 moles gas sample at 25 °C and the gas sample exerts a pressure of 450 torr. If 2.00 moles more gas is added in the container and the temperature is increased to 50 °C, what is the pressure in atm?
