The pH of the solution in which one normal adult dose aspirin is dissolved is :  2.7

Given data :

mass of aspirin = 640 mg = 0.640 g

volume of water = 10 ounces = 0.295735 L

molar mass of aspirin = 180.16 g/mol

moles of aspirin = mass / molar mass = 0.00355 mol

<h3>Determine the pH of the solution </h3>

First step : <u>calculate the concentration of aspirin</u>

= moles of Aspirin / volume of water

= 0.00355 / 0.295735

= 0.012 M

Given that pKa of Aspirin = 3.5

pKa = -logKa

therefore ; Ka = 10^{-3.5} = 3.162 * 10^{-4}

From the Ice table

3.162 * 10^{-4} = \frac{x + H^+}{[aspirin]}  = \frac{x^{2} }{0.012-x}

given that the value of Ka is small we will ignore -x

x² = 3.162 * 10^{-4} * 0.012

x = 1.948 * 10^{-3}  

Therefore

[ H⁺ ] = 1.948 * 10^{-3}

given that

pH = - Log [ H⁺ ]

     = - ( -3 + log 1.948 )

     = 2.71 ≈ 2.7

Hence we can conclude that The pH of the solution in which one normal adult dose aspirin is dissolved is :  2.7

Aqueous solutions of lithium sulfate and calcium nitrate are mixed, forming the precipitate
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(aq) Li2SO4 + (aq) Ca(NO3)2 --> (s) CaSO4 + (aq) 2LiNO3

Explanation:

Aqueous Lithium Sulfate is Li2SO4

Aqueous Calcium Nitrate is Ca(NO3)2

When they're mixed, we get the double displacement solution Calcium Sulfate and Lithium Nitrate.

Precipitate is solid.

We got solid Calcium Sulfate so the other solution must be aqueous.

CaSO4 (s) --> Calcium Sulfate product

LiNO3 (aq) --> Lithium Nitrate product

We balance equation now. 2 Lithiums total and 2 Nitrates total. (Cuz there are 2 on the other side, 1 here)

What are the gas laws? (Include Boyle's law, charles's law, gay lussac's law, an avogadro's law) Could someone please summarize
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Boyle's Law: When the pressure of a gas increases, the volume of the gas will decrease as long as the temperature and amount of gas are constant.

So basically pressure is inversely proportional to Volume, when one increases, the other decreases, vice versa.

Equation: P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}

Charles Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the volume of a gas will also increase if the pressure and amount of gas are constant.

So basically Temperature and volume are directly proportional.

Equation: \frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }

Gay Lussac's Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the pressure of a gas also increases when volume and the amount of gas remain constant.

Basically, Temperature and Pressure are directly proportional.

Equation: \frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }

Avogadro's Law: The most intuitive gas law. When you increase the amount of gas, the volume will also increase.

Meaning the moles (amount of gas) is directly proportional to volume.

Equation: \frac{V_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{V_{2} }{n_{2} } (n stands for moles)

There is a combined gas law and ideal gas law but those are just the gas laws mentioned above but combined together. These should be everything.

What’s the correct answer
Fed [463]
The correct answer is: 
_________________________________________________________
    " F  and Br , because they are in the same group" .
_________________________________________________________
Note:
_________________________________________________________
Choice [B]:  "F and Br ; because they are in the same period" ; is incorrect; since  "F" and "Br" are not in the same "period" (that is, "row").
______________________________________________________
Choice [C]:  "Na and Mg; because they are in the same group {"column"} ;  is incorrect; since:  "Na" and "Mg are NOT in the same group {"column"].
_______________________________________________________
Choice [D]:  "Na and Mg" ; because they are in the same period {"row"}; is incorrect.  Note:  "Na" and "Mg" are, in fact,  in the same period {"row"}. However, as aforementioned, {Mg and Na} are not in the same group {"column".}.  

Note:  The similiarities in physical and chemistry properties among elements are determined and organized — or tend to be so—by "groups" {"columns"} — NOT by "periods" {rows}.
