In a 0.15 m solution of malonic acid, the amount of the malonate anion, c3h2o42-, is 1.68*10^{-4} M.

Explanation:

For the first equlibria;

initial concentration of H_{2}C_{3}H_{2}OH=0.15

initial concentration of HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-} =0

initial concentration of H^{+} =0

Let concentration change of H_{2}C_{3}H_{2}OH=-x

Let concentration change of HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-} =+x

Let concentration change of H^{+} =+x

Let concentration in equilibrium state of  H_{2}C_{3}H_{2}OH=0.15-x

Let concentration in equilibrium state ofHC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-} =x

Let concentration in equilibrium state ofH^{+} =x

Therefore, Ka_{1}=\frac{x*x}{0.15-x}=\frac{1.5*10^{-3}}{1} =\frac{x^{2}}{0.15-x}

x^{2}+0.0015x-0.000225=0

Which is a quadratic equation in x, solving it gives;

x=0.01427

Therefore, HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-} =x= 0.01427M

Now for the second equlibria;

initial concentration of HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-}=0.01427

initial concentration of C_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{2-} =0

initial concentration of H^{+} =0

Let concentration change of HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-}=-x

Let concentration change of  C_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{2-} =+x

Let concentration change of H^{+} =+x

Let concentration in equilibrium state of  HC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{-}=0.01427-x

Let concentration in equilibrium state ofC_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{2-} =x

Let concentration in equilibrium state ofH^{+} =x

Therefore, Ka_{2}=\frac{x*x}{0.01427-x}=\frac{2.0*10^{-6}}{1} =\frac{x^{2}}{0.01427-x}

2.854*10^{-8}-(2.0*10^{-6})x=x^{2}

Therefore, C_{3}H_{2}O_{4}^{2-} =x= 1.68*10^{-4}M

<h3>What is a malonic acid?</h3>

The chemical formula of malonic acid is CH2(COOH)2. Malonates include the ionized form of malonic acid as well as its esters and salts. For instance, the diethyl ester of malonic acid is called diethyl malonate.

Polyester and polymers both employ malonic acid as a precursor. Both the scent business and the flavoring sector utilize it. It is employed to regulate acidity. Malonic acid contributes to the production of fatty acids in people. Malonic acid has been found in a number of foods outside of the human body, including red beets, corn, scarlet beans, common beets, and cow milks, although its presence has not been defined. The group of organic substances known as dicarboxylic acids and derivatives includes malonic acid, also known as malonate or H2MALO.

Which of the following results in the release of nuclear energy?
Pepsi [2]

c.Both the breaking of nuclear bonds and the forming of nuclear bonds.

Explanation:

Nuclear energy is released by the breaking and forming of nuclear bonds. The breaking of nuclear bonds by unstable atoms is known as nuclear fission. The forming of nuclear bonds by combination of light atoms is known as nuclear fusion.

  • Nuclear fission is a radioactive decay process in which a heavy nucleus spontaneously disintegrates into lighter ones with the release of energy.
  • In nuclear fusion, atomic nuclei combines into larger ones with the release of large amount of energy.

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Magnetism is believed to be caused by the alignment of small, numerous sub-units called : <em><u>Domains</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

Explanation:

Domains : A magnetic domain is the region in which in which magnetic field of the atoms are grouped together and aligned.

  • In unmagnetized material all the magnetic Domains  point in different direction.
  • In magnetised material (ferromagnets , antiferromagnets) , The Domains point in a particular( fixed Pattern) direction.
