The acid dissociation constant is 1.3 × 10^-3.

<h3>What is acid-dissociation constant?</h3>

The acid-dissociation constant is a constant that shows the extent of dissociation of an acid in solution. We have to set up the reaction equation as shown below;

Let the acid be HA;

                  HA       +      H2O ⇄      H3O^+      +      A^-

since the pH of the solution is 2.57 then;

[H3O^+] = Antilog(-pH) = Antilog(-2.57) = 2.7 × 10^-3

We can see that; [H3O^+]  = [A^-] so;

Ka = (2.7 × 10^-3)^2/(5.5 × 10^–3)

Ka = 1.3 × 10^-3

Thallium consists of 29.5%Th-203 and 70.5%Th-205. What is the relative atomic mass of thallium?
grin007 [14]
0.295 * 203 = 53.885
0.705 * 205 = 144.525
53.885 + 144.525 = 204.41
The relative atomic mass of Thallium is 204.41

The freezing point of benzene C6H6 is 5.50°C at 1 atmosphere. A nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte that dissolves in benzene is DDT . H
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: 0.028 grams

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point :

Formula used for lowering in freezing point is,

\Delta T_f=k_f\times m

or,

\Delta T_f=k_f\times \frac{\text{ Mass of solute in g}\times 1000}{\text {Molar mass of solute}\times \text{ Mass of solvent in g}}

where,

\Delta T_f = change in freezing point

k_f = freezing point constant  (for benzene} =5.12^0Ckg/mol

m = molality

Putting in the values we get:

0.400^0C=5.12\times \frac{\text{ Mass of solute in g}\times 1000}{354.5\times 209.0}

{\text{ Mass of solute in g}}=0.028g

0.028 grams of DDT (solute) must be dissolved in 209.0 grams of benzene to reduce the freezing point by 0.400°C.
