Find the ph of a 0.250 m solution of nac2h3o2. (the ka value of hc2h3o2 is 1.80×10−5). express your answer numerically to four s
Slav-nsk [51]
Answer is: pH value of solution of NaC₂H₃O₂ is 9.07.
Chemical reaction: C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻.
Ka(HC₂H₃O₂) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.<span>
Ka · Kb = Kw.
</span>1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³ · Kb = 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶; the ionic product of water at 25°C.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ ÷ 1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 5,56·10⁻¹⁰ mol/dm³.
c(C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 0,25 M.
[OH⁻] = [HC₂H₃O₂] = x.
[C₂H₃O₂⁻] = 0,25 M - x.
Kb = [OH⁻] · [HC₂H₃O₂] / [C₂H₃O₂⁻].
5,56·10⁻¹⁰ = x² / (0,25 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH⁻] = 0,0000118 M.
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0,0000118M) = 4,93.
pH + pOH = 14.
pH = 14 - 4,93 = 9,07.

A student carefully drops a 9.0 g solid Zn pellet initially at 50.0°C into an insulated cup containing 30.0 g of water at 27.8°C
jekas [21]

Answer: choice B

Explanation: Heat flows from high to low. After you convert the Celsius into kelvin the Zn pellet has 323K and the water has 301K which results the transfer of the heat energy of the pallet to the water. ( you don’t have to convert, but it just make it easier) hope this helped you :)

Which of the following statements is true when considering temperature during a recrystallization? More than one answer may be c
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

<em>(1) It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent. </em>

Explanation:

The process of recrystallization is important to eliminate the impurities and to obtain better crystals of the solid. The solvent used to perform the recrystallization must have a high dissolution power of the substance to be recrystallized and a low dissolution power of the impurities. This is in order to eliminate most impurities. Furthermore, <em>It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent </em>because this should be easy to remove after the recrystallization and the crystal should form easily when the solution cools. Also, it is better to add the hot solvent to solubilize the crystals and keep the impurities insoluble, instead of adding the cold solvent and heating the solution. Additionally, the process of cooling the solution must be done slowly to obtain large and fewer crystals. A fast ice-cooling will form smaller crystals.

Answer:

Sodium-calcium exchanger on the sarcolemma

Explanation:

The sodium-calcium exchanger which is an antiporter membrane protein, removes calcium from cells. The energy of the electrochemical gradient of sodium is used by allowing it to flow down its gradient while moving across the plasma membrane
