The pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37°C is 6.8.

<h3>What is Kw? </h3>

Kw is defined as the dissociation, which is also known as self-ionization, constant of water. this is an equilibrium constant, and its expression is:

Kw = [OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺]

Neutral pH determines that the concentrations of OH⁻ and H₃O⁺ are equal.

<h3>Calculation</h3>

Let us suppose concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ is x, to calculate it:

Kw =[OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺] = x²

x² = 2.4 × 10⁻¹⁴ M²

x = 1.5919 × 10⁻⁷ M

Hence, the concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ (x) = [H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] = -log( 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M)

pH = 6.8

Thus, we find that the pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c (which is the normal human body temperature) is 6.8.

PLS HELP!! <br> Balance this equation: __H2+ 2 O2---&gt; 2 H2O
alekssr [168]

Answer:

 2H₂   +   O₂  →   2H₂O

Explanation:

The expression of the equation is given as:

              _H₂   +   2O₂  →   2H₂O

Now for expression above,

                           Reactants                                          Products

H                              2                                                            4

O                              4                                                           2

to balance the equation, we use 2 moles of hydrogen gas and 1 mole of oxygen gas;

           2H₂   +   O₂  →   2H₂O

Aspirin (C9H8O4) may be synthesized by mixing salicylic acid (C7H6O3) with excess acetic anhydride (C4H6O3).
diamong [38]

Answer:

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.

Explanation:

C_7H_6O_3 + C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4 + C_2H_4O_2

Moles of salicyclic acid = \frac{2.0 g}{138 g/mol}=0.01449 mol

According to reaction 1 mole of salicyclic acid gives 1 mole of aspirin .

Then 0.01449 mole of salicylic acid will give :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01449 mol=0.01449 mol of asprin

Mass of 0.01449 moles of aspirin :

= 0.01449 mol × 180 g/mol = 2.6082 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 2.6082 g

Experimental yield of aspirin = 1.7 g

The percent yield for this reaction:

\%(Yield)=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

=\frac{1.7 g}{2.6082 g}\times 100=65.18\%

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.
