The pH of the monoprotic weak acid is 2.79.

<h3>What are weak acids?</h3>

The weak acids are the acids that do not fully dissociate into ions in the solution. Strong acids fully dissociate into ions.

The chemical reaction is HA(aq) ⇄ A⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).

c (monoprotic acid) = 0.33 M.

Ka = 1.2·10⁻⁶

[A⁻] = [H⁺] = x

[HA] = 0.33 M - x

Ka = [A⁻]·[H⁺] / [HA]

2. 6 × 10⁻⁶ = x² / (0.33 M - x)

Solve quadratic equation: [H⁺] = 0.000524 M.

pH = -log[H⁺]

pH = -log(0.000524 M)

pH = 2.79

Thus, the pH of the monoprotic weak acid is 2.79

Answer:

A) 20

B) 40

C) Ca

D) 10

E) 9

F) F

Explanation:

The MASS NUMBER is the number of protons + the number of neutrons.

The ATOMIC NUMBER is the number of protons.

You can take the MASS NUMBER - ATOMIC NUMBER = NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.

Each element is unique and distinguished by the NUMBER OF PROTONS = ATOMIC NUMBER, ie...the number of protons in its nucleus. You can find the element's name and symbol on the Periodic Table.

Water is poured into a conical container at the rate of 10 cm3/sec. The cone points directly down, and it has a height of 20 cm

8090 [49]

Answer:

\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{40}{9\pi}\frac{cm}{2}

Explanation:

Hello,

The suitable differential equation for this case is:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=10\frac{cm^3}{s}$

As we're looking for the change in height with respect to the time, we need a relationship to achieve such as:

$\frac{dh}{dt} = ?*\frac{dV}{dt}$

Of course, $?=\frac{dh}{dV}$ .

Now, since the volume of a cone is $V=\pi r^2h/3$ and the ratio $r/h=15/20=3/4$ or $r=3/4h$ , the volume becomes:

$V=\pi (\frac{3}{4} h)^2h/3= \frac{3}{16}\pi h^3$

We proceed to its differentiation:

$\frac{dV}{dh} =\frac{9}{16} \pi h^2\\\frac{dh}{dV} =\frac{16}{9 \pi h^2}$

Then, we compute $\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{16}{9 \pi h^2}*\frac{dV}{dt}\\\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{16}{9\pi h^2}*10\frac{cm^3}{s} =\frac{160}{9 \pi h^2}$

Finally, at h=2:

$\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{160}{9\pi 2^2}\\\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{40}{9\pi}\frac{cm}{s}$

Best regards.

YOU MUST SHOW ALL STEPS OF THE G.U.E.S.S. METHOD CORRECTLY. NO UNITS=WRONG ANSWER

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The equation for wave speed can be used to calculate the speed of a wave when both wavelength and wave frequency are known. Consider an ocean wave with a wavelength of 3 meters and a frequency of 1 hertz. The speed of the wave is: Speed = 3 m x 1 wave/s = 3 m/s.

SO... take your meters and hezert and do tha same

A solution containing aluminium ions forms a white precipitate when a few drops of dilute sodium hydroxide solution are added to

Otrada [13]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A word equation tries to depict a chemical reaction in words. Letters rather than only chemical formulas are used to show the reaction equation.

Now we want to write a word equation that shows the reaction of sodium hydroxide solution and aluminium sulphate solution:

Alumunium sulphate + sodium hydroxide ------>Aluminium hydroxide + sodium sulphate

5. Which are generally less soluble, compounds with chlorate ions or carbonate ions?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Compounds with Carbonate ions are less soluble than the compounds with Chlorate ions.

Explanation:

The reason is that the compounds with carbonate ions have less attraction between positive and negative charges. (Solvation)
