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

What is the predicted order of first ionization energies from highest to lowest for lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), an
frutty [35]
The first ionization energy is the energy that the atom lost its first electrons. The energy decrease and the atom is more reactive. So from highest to lowest is Li>Na>K>Rb.

Among K, Ca and Ba, which element possess low ionization energy?
deff fn [24]

Among the elements Barium has the lowest Ionization Energy.

<h3>What is Ionization Process ?</h3>

The process by which any neutral atom gets converted into electrically charged by gaining or losing electron is called Ionization Process.

K  is an alkali metal  it has to lose one electron to attain stable electronic configuration of an inert gas

For removing second electron , a stable configuration has to be broken and so will require high amount of energy.

Ca and Ba are alkaline earth metals.

They both have to lose 2 electrons to attain  stable electronic configuration of noble gas.

They have low Iow Ionization Energy as compared to K.

Ca has higher  Ionization Energy as compared to Ba because when we move down the periodic table , The ionization energy decreases.

Hence , Among the elements Barium has the lowest Ionization Energy.

Electrolysis of molten lead bromide is carried out.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Read Below

Explanation:

Electrolysis is not possible with solid lead (II) bromide. This is because the ions are held in a three-dimensional lattice, unable to move freely to the electrodes. Melting enables the ions to become mobile and to travel to the respective electrodes.

The bulb won't glow when the electrodes are embedded in solid lead bromide.  The bulb will glow when the material surrounding the electrodes is molten lead bromide. When an ionic compound is in the molten (liquid) form the positive and negative ions are free to move around.

Hopes this Helps :D
