To determine the percent ionization of the acid given, we make use of the acid equilibrium constant (Ka) given. It is the ration of the equilibrium concentrations of the dissociated ions and the acid. The dissociation reaction of the HF acid would be as follows:<span>

HF = H+ + F-

The acid equilibrum constant would be expressed as follows:

Ka = [H+][F-] / [HF] = 3.5 x 10-4

To determine the equilibrium concentrations we use the ICE table,
         HF             H+              F-
I      0.337           0                 0
C      -x              +x               +x
---------------------------------------------
E    0.337-x        x                   x 

3.5 x 10-4 = [H+][F-] / [HF] 
3.5 x 10-4 = [x][x] / [0.337-x] </span>

Solving for x,

x = 0.01069 = [H+] = [F-]

percent ionization = 0.01069 / 0.337 x 100  = 3.17%

The percent ionization of a 0.337 M HF solution : <u>3.2%</u>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

According to Arrhenius, acids are substances which, when dissolved in water, release Hions.

An HₓY acid in water will ionize:

HₓY (aq) --------> xH⁺ (aq) + Yˣ- (aq)

Example:

HCl -------> H⁺ + Cl⁻

The amount of Hions produced by 1 acid molecule is called valence acid, whereas acidic residuals are formed after the release of Hions.

Usually, the name acid begins with the word acid followed by the name of the remaining acidic ion

The ion concentration of a weak acid is determined by the value of the acid ionization constant (Ka).

The greater the value of Ka, the greater the dissociated acid produces its Hion and the greater its acidity

HF is a weak acid

Weak acid ionization reaction occurs partially (not ionizing perfectly as in strong acids)

The ionization reaction of a weak acid is an equilibrium reaction

HA (aq) ---> H + (aq) + A- (aq)

The equilibrium constant for acid ionization is called the acid ionization constant, which is symbolized by Ka

The values ​​for the weak acid reactions above:

<h3>Ka = [H +] [A-] / [HA] </h3>

The greater the Ka, the stronger the acid, which means the reaction to the right is also greater

The degree of ionization (symbol α) is the ratio of the amount of ionizing substance to the amount of substance dissolved

α = amount of substance ionizing : amount of substance dissolved

HF decomposition reaction

HF ---> H⁺+ F⁻ if there is 0.337 M HF, then

\rm Ka=\dfrac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

3.5 x 10⁻⁴. = x. x : 0.337-x (0.337-x is considered proportional to 0.337 because x is very small)

1,179.10⁻⁴ = x²

x = 0.01086

α = 0.01086: 0.337

α = 0.0322

α = 3.22%

- Nitinol is an alloy of *
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Nickel and Titanium

Explanation:

Nitinol is an alloy of Nickel and Titanium. It posesses two properties such that,

  • The shape memory effect
  • Super elasticity

Shape memory is the ability of nitinol to undergo deformation at one temperature, stay in its deformed shape when the external force is removed.

Superelasticity is the ability for the metal to undergo large deformations and immediately return to its undeformed shape upon removal of the external load.

Hence, the correct option is (b) "Nickel and Titanium".

An endergonic reaction with a Δh and Δs can be changed into an exergonic reaction.
zheka24 [161]

Full question:

This question is incomplete, here it is completed:

An endergonic reaction with a ______ ∆H and a ______ ∆S can be changed into an exergonic reaction by decreasing the temperature.

Option A: negative, positive

Option B: negative, negative

Option C: positive, positive

Option D: positive, negative

Answer:

Option B: negative, negative

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) of a system for a constant-temperature process is

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

free energy is the energy available to do work. Thus, if a particular reaction is accompanied by a release of usable energy (that is, <u>ΔG is negative</u><u>), it is said to be</u><u> exergonic</u>. On the other hand, if a reaction consumes energy (that is, <u>ΔG is positive</u><u>), it is said to be </u><u>endergonic</u>.

Looking at the equation, we can see that if ΔH is negative and ΔS is negative, then ΔG will be negative only when TΔS  is smaller in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is small.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

           -        -

This means that the reaction proceeds spontaneously at low temperatures. At high temperatures, the reverse reaction becomes spontaneous. An example of that would be the following reaction:

NH₃(g) + HCl(g) → NH₄Cl(s)

How many grams of nitric acid will react completely with a block of iron metal that is 4.5 cm by 3.0 cm by 3.5 cm, if the densit
denpristay [2]

Balance the equation first: 

2 Fe+6 HNO3→2 Fe(NO3)3+3H2

Then calculate mass of Iron :

4.5×3.0×3.5 cm3(1 mL1 cm3)(7.87 g Fe1 ml)=371.86 g Fe

Now use Stoichiometry:

371.86 g Fe×(1 mol Fe55.85 g Fe)×(6 mol HNO32 mol Fe)=19.97 mol HNO3

Convert moles of nitric acid to grams

19.97 mol HNO3×(63.01 g HNO31 mol HNO3)=1258.3 g HNO3
