Answer:

2.19 x 10^-12.

Explanation:-

The relation between Ka and Kb for an acid and it's conjugate base is

Ka x Kb = Kw where Kw = ionic product of water.

So Kb = 10^-14 / (4.57 x 10 ^ -3)

= 2.19 x 10^-12

The net ionic equation for the reaction between aqueous sulfuric acid and aqueous sodium hydroxide is ________.

Kaylis [27]

Molecular equation:
$H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2NaOH(aq)--\ \textgreater \ Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2H_{2}O(l)

Complete ionic equation:

2H^{+}+SO_{4}^{2-} + 2Na^{+} +2OH^{-}--\ \textgreater \ 2Na^{+}+SO_{4}^{2-} + 2H_{2}O(l)


Near 2H^{+},SO_{4}^{2-} , 2Na^{+} , OH^{-} 

should be written (aq).

Remove ions that do not change from both sides

2H^{+} + 2OH^{-}=2H_{2}O

Net ionic equation:

H^{+}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq)=H_{2}O(l)

Answer is D.

Calculate the ph of sweater which has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 times 10 to the power of 8

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The pH of the sweater containing Hydrogen ion concentration

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}$ is

<u>8</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

pH = It is the negative logarithm of activity (concentration) of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log([H+])

Now, In the question the concentration of [H+] ions is :

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}$

$pH = -log(1\times 10^{-8})$

use the relation:

$log(10^{-a})=a$

$pH= -(-8)$

pH = 8

Note : <em><u> 1 times 10 to the power of 8 must be" 1 times 10 to the power of -8"</u></em>

If the concentration is

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{8}$

Then pH = -8 , which is not possible . So in that case the pH calculation is by other method

Draw the molecule by placing atoms on the grid and connecting them with bonds. Include all lone pairs of electrons. Show the for

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, let's see both molecules per separate:

In the case of SeO₂ the central atom would be the Se. The Se has oxidation states of 2+, and 4+. In this molecule it's working with the 4+, while oxygen is working with the 2- state. Now, how do we know that Se is working with that state?, simply, let's do an equation for it. We know that this molecule has a formal charge of 0, so:

Se = x

O = -2

x + (-2)*2 = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4.

Therefore, Selenium is working with +4 state, the only way to bond this molecule is with a covalent bond, and in the case of the oxygen will be with double bond. See picture below.

In the case of CO₂ happens something similar. Carbon is working with +4 state, so in order to stabilize the charges, it has to be bonded with double bonds with both oxygens. The picture below shows.
