The empirical formula of the metal oxide would be  Sc_2O_3

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

Mass of scandium = 0.502g

Mass of scandium + oxygen = 0.768g

Mass of oxygen = 0.768 - 0.502 = 0.266g

Mole of scandium = 0.502/44.95 = 0.011

Mole of oxygen = 0.266/16 = 0.017

Divide by the lowest:

Scandium = 0.011/0.011 = 1

Oxygen = 0.017.0.011 = 1.5

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound would be ScO_1.5 or Sc_2O_3

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.24 mol of butanoic acid and 0.25 mol of sodium butanoate in water sufficient to yield 1.0
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Butanoic acid present in solution

Explanation:

In this case, we have a buffer solution of butanoic acid and sodium butanoate.  In other words a reaction like this:

HC₄H₇O₂ + H₂O <------> C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H₃O⁺   Ka = 1.5x10⁻⁵

The low value of Ka means that this is a weak acid. So, after this, the NaOH is added to the solution.

The NaOH is a really strong base, so we might expect that the pH of the solution increase drastically, however this do not occur.

The reason for this is because the first thing to happen in this reaction is an acid base reaction.

The NaOH react with the butanoic acid still present in solution, because is a weak acid, so in solution, this acid is not completely dissociated into it's respective ions. So the butanoic acid reacts with the NaOH and the products:

HC₄H₇O₂ + NaOH <------> Na⁺C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H₂O

So, because of this, the pH increase but not much.

3. A light bulb containing argon gas is switched on,
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The assumption is quite reasonable.........

A lightbulb contains Ar gas at a temperature of 295K and at a pressure of 75kPa. The light bulb is switched on, and after 30 minutes its temperature is 418 K. What is a numerical setup for calculating the pressure of the gas inside the light bulb at 418K?
