Answer:
CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH > CH₃CH₂COOH > ClCH₂CH₂COOH > ClCH₂COOH
Explanation:
Electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) increase acidity by inductive removal of electrons from the carboxyl group.
Electron-donating groups (EDGs) decrease acidity by inductive donation of electrons to the carboxyl group.
- The closer the substituent is to the carboxyl group, the greater is its effect.
- The more substituents, the greater the effect.
- The effect tails off rapidly and is almost zero after about three C-C bonds.
CH₃CH₂-CH₂COOH — EDG — weakest — pKₐ = 4.82
CH₃-CH₂COOH — reference — pKₐ = 4.75
ClCH₂-CH₂COOH — EWG on β-carbon— stronger — pKₐ = 4.00
ClCH₂COOH — EWG on α-carbon — strongest — pKₐ = 2.87
Answer:
a) pH = 4.68 (more effective)
b) pH =4.44.
Explanation:
The pH of buffer solution is obtained by Henderson Hassalbalch's equation.
The equation is:
![pH =pKa +log\frac{[salt]}{[acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3DpKa%20%2Blog%5Cfrac%7B%5Bsalt%5D%7D%7B%5Bacid%5D%7D)
a) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74
[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 1.4 M
[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 1.6 M

This is more effective as there is very less difference in the concentration of salt and acid.
b) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74
[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 0.1 M
[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 0.2 M

Answer: 10.99
Explanation: because you take the Cao 13.9 and take CO2 which is 10.99 and it makes 24.8 . Which is CaCO3.
Answer:
Temporary hardness is a type of water hardness caused by the presence of dissolved bicarbonate minerals (calcium bicarbonate and magnesium bicarbonate). ... However, unlike the permanent hardness caused by sulfate and chloride compounds, this "temporary" hardness can be reduced by boiling the water.
<u>Answer:</u> The atomic weight of the second isotope is 64.81 amu.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of atomic masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance
Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:
.....(1)
We are given:
Let the mass of isotope 2 be 'x'
Mass of isotope 1 = 62.9 amu
Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 69.1 %
Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.691
Mass of isotope 2 = 'x'
Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = 30.9%
Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.309
Average atomic mass of copper = 63.5 amu
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
![\text{Average atomic mass of copper}=[(62.9\times 0.691)+(x\times 0.309)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BAverage%20atomic%20mass%20of%20copper%7D%3D%5B%2862.9%5Ctimes%200.691%29%2B%28x%5Ctimes%200.309%29%5D)

Hence, the atomic weight of second isotope will be 64.81 amu.
