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

How many formula units of sodium chloride (NaCl) may theoretically be produced from 13.0 g FeCl3?
algol [13]

Answer:

1.445\times 10^{23} formula units of sodium chloride can be formed from 13.0 gram of ferric chloride.

Explanation:

Mass of ferric chloride = 13.0 g

Moles of ferric chloride = \frac{13.0 g}{162.5 g/mol}=0.08 mol

1 mole of ferric chloride has three moles of chloride ions.Then 0.08 moles of ferric chloride will have :

3\times 0.08 mol=0.24 mol of chloride

Na^++Cl^-\rightarrow NaCl

1 mole of sodium ion reacts with 1 mole of chloride ion to form 1 mole of NaCl. Then 0.24 moles of chloride ion will give:

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.24 mol=0.24 mol of NaCl

1 mole = N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} molecules/ atoms

Number of NaCl molecules in 0.24 moles :

=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 0.24=1.445\times 10^{23} molecules

1.445\times 10^{23} formula units of sodium chloride can be formed from 13.0 gram of ferric chloride.

when acceleration is held constant and objects of different mass are observed,are mass and force directly proportional or invers
svetoff [14.1K]
Yes. When two things are directly prortional, that means that as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. So, say you have a 2kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2. The force would be 4N. If you have a 3kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force would be 6N. If two things are inversely proportional, that means that as one thing increases the other decreases at the same rate. A good example of this is in a chemical reaction. If you increase the surface area of the reactants, the reaction time decreases. They are inversely proportional.

Calculation of Molar Ratios of Conjugate Base to Weak Acid from pH For a weak acid with a pKa of 6.0, calculate the ratio of con
Free_Kalibri [48]

Explanation:

According to the Handerson equation,  

          pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{\text{salt}}{\text{acid}}

or,      pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}}

Putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

     pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}}

       5.0 = 6.0 + log \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}}[/tex]

      log \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}} = -1.0

or,      \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}} = 10^{-1.0}

                            = 0.1

Therefore, we can conclude that molar ratios of conjugate base to weak acid for given solution is 0.1.

#1. Which one of the following statements correctly defines active site? The active site is a site on the enzyme molecule where
deff fn [24]
Active sites in enzymes are where substrates bind. Once they bind, a catalytic reaction occurs as a complex between substrate and enzyme is formed. Enzymes are termed as biocatalysts or simply catalysts since they speed up the catalytic reaction. After the reaction, they simply revert back to their original form, after having adjusted to fit with substrate.
