The pH of a 0.0100 M sodium benzoate solution is determined as 8.09.

<h3>What is pH of a solution?</h3>

The pH of a solution is a measure of hydrogen (H+) ion concentration, which is, in turn, a measure of acidity of the solution.

pH is can also be determined from pOH of the solution as shown below;

pH = 14 - pOH

<h3>pH of the benzoate solution</h3>

let the hydroxyl concentration, OH = x

x²/M = kb

x²/0.01 = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

x² = 1.5 x 10⁻¹²

x = √(1.5 x 10⁻¹²)

x = 1.2247 x 10⁻⁶

pOH = - log(OH⁻)

pOH = -log( 1.2247 x 10⁻⁶)

pOH = 5.91

<h3>Calculate the value of the pH</h3>

pH = 14 - 5.91

pH = 8.09

Thus, the pH of a 0.0100 M sodium benzoate solution is determined as 8.09.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

AT = A0 e(-T/H)

... where A0 is the starting activity, AT is the activity at some time T, and H is the half-life, in units of T.

Substituting what we know, we get...

0.71 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.71) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.71)(5730)

T = 1962 (conservatively rounded, T = 2000)

similarly for all

for aboriginal charcoal

0.28 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.28) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.28)(5730)

T = 7294 (conservatively rounded, T = 7000)

for mayan headdress

0.89 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.89) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.89)(5730)

T = 667 (conservatively rounded, T = 700)

for neanderthal

0.05 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.05) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.05)(5730)

T = 17165 (conservatively rounded, T = 17000)

ICI has a higher boiling point then Br. What is the best explanation for this?
Ahat [919]
Br2 experiences dipole-dipole interactions. ICl experiences dipole-dipole interactions. Br2 forms hydrogen bonds. ICl experiences induced dipole-induced dipole interactions.

A mixture is made by combining 1.49 lb of salt and 3.82 lb of water.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

concentration=(solute mass/solution mass)*100

C=concentration

md-solute mass

ms-solution mass

the solution mass is equal to the sum of the solute and solvent mass

ms=3.82+1.49=5.31lb

c=1.49/5.31 * 100=0.28*100=28%

Please help!!! Stoich Question
Greeley [361]

Answer:

4KO₂ + 2CO₂ -> 2K₂CO₃ + 3O₂

<u> Step 1: Find the moles of O₂.</u>

n(O₂) = mass/ Mr.

n(O₂) = 100 / 32 = 3.125 mol

<u>Step 2: Find the ratio between KO₂ and O₂.</u>

        <u>KO₂ </u>    :      <u> O₂</u>

          4        :       3

        4/3       :       1

  (4*3125)/3  :      3.125

=4.167 mol of KO₂

Thus now we know, to produce 100 g of O₂, we need 4.167mol of KO₂

<u>Step 3: Find the mass of KO₂:</u>

<u />

mass = mol * Mr. (KO₂)

Mass = 4.167* 71.1

Mass = 296.25 g
