In an experiment, what is the purpose of the control group?

A control group is the comparison group that helps to "make sure your experiment works." A control group is separated from the rest of the experiment and nothing happens to it kinda like a controlled variable. Controlled variables are the variables in a experiment that remains the same for example a temperature, time, type of products, etc..

Hope this helps!

Katen [24]

Answer:

The ionization equation is

$H_{2}PO_{4}^{-} +H_{2}O$ ⇄ $HPO_{4}^{-2} +H_{3}O^{+}$ (1)

Explanation:

The ionization equation is

$H_{2}PO_{4}^{-} +H_{2}O$ ⇄ $HPO_{4}^{-2} +H_{3}O^{+}$ (1)

As the Bronsted definition sais, an acid is a substance with the ability to give protons thus, H2PO4 is the acid and HPO42- is the conjugate base.

The Ka expression is the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants of the equilibrium reaction so,

$Ka = \frac{[HPO_{4}^{-2}] [H_{3}O^{+}]}{[H_{2}PO_{4}^{-}] [H_{2}O]} = 6.2x10^{-8}$

The pKa is

$-Log (Ka) = -Log (6.2x10^{-8}) = 7.2$

The pKa of H2CO3 is 6,35, thus this a stronger acid than H2PO4. The higher the pKa of an acid greater the capacity to donate protons.

In the body H2CO3 is a more optimal buffer for regulating pH due to the combination of the two acid-base equilibriums and the two pKa.

If the urine is acidified, according to Le Chatlier's Principle the equilibrium (1) moves to the left neutralizing the excess proton concentration.

Use the following balanced reaction to solve 1-3:

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

1.96g H2

Explanation:

P4 = 123.9g/mol

H2 = 2.02g/mol

$\frac{20g P_{4} }{1}$ * $\frac{1 mol P_{4} }{123.9g}$ * $\frac{6 mol H_{2} }{1 mol P_{4} }$ * $\frac{2.02g H_{2} }{1 mol H_{2} }$ = 1.96g H2
