In a 0.20 M solution, a weak acid is 3.0% dissociated, the value of

H₃O⁺ =9.19 × 10⁻² OH⁻ = 1.09 × 10⁻¹³, pH =1.04 , pOH = 12.96

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log(a_{H+})

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.

Lets find [H₃O⁺]

Because 12.5% of the weak acid dissociated, 12.5% of the concentration of the weak acid also produced H3O.

H₃O = HA × 0.125

      = 0.735 M × 0.125

      = 9.19 × 10⁻²

Lets find [OH⁻]

Using the Kw = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴

Kw = [H₃O⁺][OH⁻]

[OH⁻] = Kw / [H₃O⁺]

         = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴ / 9.19 × 10⁻²

         = 1.09 × 10⁻¹³

Lets find pH

pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

     = -log(9.19 × 10⁻²)

     = 1.04

Lets find pOH

Using pH +pOH = 14

pH +pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

        =  14 - 1.04

        = 12.96

A balloon contains helium gas expands from 230ml to 860 ml as more helium is added. What was the initial quantity of helium pres
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

n₁ = 1.0× 10⁻⁴ mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of balloon = 230 mL

Initial number of moles of He =?

Final number of moles of He = 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Final volume of balloon = 860 mL

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through Avogadro law,

"Number of moles of gas and volume are directly proportional to each other at constant temperature and constant pressure"

Mathematical relationship:

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

No we will put the values.

230 mL  /n₁   = 860 mL/ 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol

n₁ = 230 mL× 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol/ 860 mL

n₁ = 874 × 10⁻⁴ mol. mL / 860 mL

n₁ = 1.0× 10⁻⁴ mol

Given these reactions, where X represents a generic metal or metalloid 1 ) H 2 ( g ) + 1 2 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ H 2 O ( g ) Δ H 1 = − 241
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

-767,2kJ

Explanation:

It is possible to sum enthalpies of half-reactions to obtain the enthalpy of a global reaction using Hess's law. For the reactions:

1) H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) ⟶ H₂O(g) ΔH₁= −241.8 kJ

2) X(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ⟶ XCl₄(s) ΔH₂= +361.7 kJ

3) ¹/₂H₂(g) + ¹/₂Cl₂(g) ⟶ HCl (g) ΔH₃= −92.3 kJ

4) X(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) ΔH₄= − 607.9 kJ

5) H₂O(g) ⟶ H₂O(l) ΔH₅= − 44.0 kJ

The sum of (4) - (2) produce:

6) XCl₄(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ΔH₆ = ΔH₄ - ΔH₂ = -969,6 kJ

(6) + 4×(3):

7) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₇ = ΔH₆ + 4ΔH₃= -1338,8 kJ

(7) - 2×(1):

8) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂O(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₈ = ΔH₇ - 2ΔH₁= -855,2kJ

(8) - 2×(5):

9) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂O(l) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₉ = ΔH₈ - 2ΔH₅= <em>-767,2kJ</em>

I hope it helps!

Which of the following correctly represents the transmutation in which a curium-242 nucleus is bombarded with an alpha particle
Alekssandra [29.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

_{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_4^2\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{98}^{245}\textrm{Cf}+_0^1\textrm{n}

The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.
