The average atomic mass of element X is 10.025 amu

The average atomic mass of element X = atomic mass of 10 isotope × relative abundance of 10 isotope + atomic mass of 11 isotope × relative abundance of 11 isotope + atomic mass of 12 isotope × relative abundance of 12 isotope

= 10 × 98% + 11 × 1.5 % + 12 × 0.5 %

= 10 × 0.98 + 11 × 0.015 + 12 × 0.005

= 9.8 + 0.165 + 0.06

= 10.025 amu

So, the average atomic mass of element X is 10.025 amu

In an aqueous solution of a certain acid the acid is 4.4% dissociated and the pH is 3.03. Calculate the acid dissociation consta

NeX [460]

Answer:

4.1x10⁻⁵

Explanation:

The dissociation of an acid is a reversible reaction, and, because of that, it has an equilibrium constant, Ka. For a generic acid (HA), the dissociation happens by:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

So, if x moles of the acid dissociates, x moles of H⁺ and x moles of A⁻ is formed. the percent of dissociation of the acid is:

% = (dissociated/total)*100%

4.4% = (x/[HA])*100%

But x = [A⁻], so:

[A⁻]/[HA] = 0.044

The pH of the acid can be calcualted by the Handersson-Halsebach equation:

pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA]

3.03 = pKa + log 0.044

pKa = 3.03 - log 0.044

pKa = 4.39

pKa = -logKa

logKa = -pKa

Ka = $10^{-pKa}$

Ka = $10^{-4.39}$

Ka = 4.1x10⁻⁵
