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

Which of the following processes would you predict to have an increase in entropy?
arlik [135]

Among the choices given, the best answer is the third option. Melting ice shows an increase in entropy. Entropy is the degree of disorderliness in a system. Among the phases, solid has the most ordered structure which means it has the least entropy. The ice melting shows a phase change from solid to liquid. Liquid molecules are more disorganized than the solid thus there is an increase in entropy.

A car is traveling with an initial velocity of 15 m/s when the driver decides to go faster by accelerating at 5 m/s2 for 10 seco
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: Time needed: 2.5 s

Distance covered: 31.3 m

Explanation:

I'll start with the distance covered while decelerating. Since you know that the initial speed of the car is 15.0 m/s, and that its final speed must by 10.0 m/s, you can use the known acceleration to determine the distance covered by

 

on one side of the equation and solve by plugging your values

To get the time needed to reach this speed, i.e. 10.0 m/s, you can use the following equation
