So, water reacts with hydrochloric acid in the following formula

H2O + HCl —-> H3O+ + Cl-

We can visualize that when the two react, the hydrogen ions is taken on by the water molecule. This satisfies one of the definitions for a base

Bronsted acids = anything that donates a proton (H+ ion)

Bronsted bases = anything that accepts a proton (H+ ion)

So, as we can see, that is exactly what is happening. The Cl- and H+ detach and then the water takes on that extra H+.

H3O+ is what we call a hydronium ion

The density of the fat tristearin is 0.95 g cm−3 . Calculate the change in molar Gibbs energy of tristearin when a deep-sea crea
KatRina [158]

The formula for the change in Gibbs energy of a solid is:

ΔG = Vm ΔP

where, ΔG is change in Gibbs, Vm is molar volume, ΔP is change in pressure

ΔP = P(final) – P(initial)

P(final) = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

P(initial) = ρ_water *g *h = (1030 kg/m^3) * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2000 m = 20188000 kg m/s^2 = 20188000 Pa

Vm = (950 kg/m^3) * (1000 mol / 891.48 kg) = 1065.64 mol/m^3

 

So,

ΔG = (1065.64 mol/m^3) * (101325 Pa - 20188000 Pa)

<span>ΔG = -21405164347 J = -21.4 GJ</span>

Calculate the dissociation constant of nh4oh(aq) if the degree of dissociation of 0.006 mol/kg solution is 0.053 and the activit
Anastasy [175]

The dissociation equation will be

                         NH4OH   --->        NH4+                   + OH-

Initial                 0.006                        0                          0

Change         -0.006 X 0.053        +0.006 X 0.053      -0.006 X 0.053

Equlibrium     0.006 -0.006 X 0.053      0.006 X 0.053    0.006 X 0.053

Ka = [NH4+] [ OH-] / [NH4OH] = (0.006 X 0.053)^2 / 0.006 -0.006 X 0.053

Ka = 1.78 X 10^-5
