Answer:
9.36
Explanation:
Sodium formate is the conjugate base of formic acid.
Also,
for sodium formate is 
Given that:
of formic acid = 
And, 
So,
Concentration = 0.35 M
HCOONa ⇒ Na⁺ + HCOO⁻
Consider the ICE take for the formate ion as:
HCOO⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HCOOH + OH⁻
At t=0 0.35 - -
At t =equilibrium (0.35-x) x x
The expression for dissociation constant of sodium formate is:
![K_{b}=\frac {[OH^-][HCOOH]}{[HCOO^-]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_%7Bb%7D%3D%5Cfrac%20%7B%5BOH%5E-%5D%5BHCOOH%5D%7D%7B%5BHCOO%5E-%5D%7D)
Solving for x, we get:
x = 0.44×10⁻⁵ M
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.44×10⁻⁵) = 4.64
pH + pOH = 14
So,
<u>pH = 14 - 4.64 = 9.36</u>
Answer is: ph value is 3.56.
Chemical reaction 1: H₂CO₃(aq) ⇄ HCO₃⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₁ = 4,3·10⁻⁷.
Chemical reaction 2: HCO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ CO₃²⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₂ = 5,6·10⁻¹¹.
c(H₂CO₃) = 0,18 M.
[HCO₃⁻] = [H⁺<span>] = x.
</span>[H₂CO₃] = 0,18 M - x.
Ka₁ = [HCO₃⁻] · [H⁺] / [H₂CO₃].
4,3·10⁻⁷ = x² / (0,18 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [H⁺] =0,000293 M.
pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(0,000293 M).
pH = 3,56; second Ka do not contributes pH value a lot.
Answer:
»Climatic change leads to malnutrition.
e.g when its cold season, osmoregulation decreases and rate of metabolism declines.
This is because the enzymes lack that optimum temperature for their catalytic activity to take place hence improper digestion.
»Leads to promotion of predation in ecosystem.
such as reptiles e.g snakes, lizards get away from shelters on cold days since they are cold blooded, hence their predators such as animals, birds increase.
Hard question thx for the points
Answer:
Carbon has a total of four bonded pairs of electrons around it.
Explanation:
Since there are four "lines" around the C (which stands for Carbon), we can conclude that Carbon has a total of four bonded pairs of electrons around it.
