I think that scientist should build a habitat we’re the endangered animals could go free.By scientists building a habitat I mean giving the endangered animals a space to feel safe.Another way scientists could help endangered animals , would be to try and reproduce, the animal.For example scientist could help out with giving the animals hormones to be able to reproduce.And lastly scientists could do experimentation on the endangered animals to see if the animal ever were to go extinct how they could reproduce a new species.

Answer:
pH =3.8
Explanation:
Lets call the monoprotic weak acid HA, the dissociation equilibria in water will be:
HA + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + A⁻ with Ka = [ H₃O⁺] x [A⁻]/ [HA]
The pH is the negative log of the H₃O⁺ concentration, we know the equilibrium constant, Ka and the original acid concentration. So we will need to find the [H₃O⁺] to solve this question.
In order to do that lets set up the ICE table helper which accounts for the species at equilibrium:
HA H₃O⁺ A⁻
Initial, M 0.40 0 0
Change , M -x +x +x
Equilibrium, M 0.40 - x x x
Lets express these concentrations in terms of the equilibrium constant:
Ka = x² / (0.40 - x )
Now the equilibrium constant is so small ( very little dissociation of HA ) that is safe to approximate 0.40 - x to 0.40,
7.3 x 10⁻⁶ = x² / 0.40 ⇒ x = √( 7.3 x 10⁻⁶ x 0.40 ) = 1.71 x 10⁻³
[H₃O⁺] = 1.71 x 10⁻³
Indeed 1.71 x 10⁻³ is small compared to 0.40 (0.4 %). To be a good approximation our value should be less or equal to 5 %.
pH = - log ( 1.71 x 10⁻³ ) = 3.8
Note: when the aprroximation is greater than 5 % we will need to solve the resulting quadratic equation.
Answer:
see note under explanation
Explanation:
When describing system and surroundings the system is typically defined as the 'object of interest' being studied and surroundings 'everything else'. In thermodynamics heat flow is typically defined as endothermic or exothermic. However, one should realize that the terms endothermic and exothermic are in reference to the 'system' or object of interest being studied. For example if heat is transferred from a warm object to a cooler object it is imperative that the system be defined 1st. So, with that, assume the system is a warm metal cylinder being added into cooler water. When describing heat flow then the process is exothermic with respect to the metal cylinder (the system) but endothermic to the water and surroundings (everything else).
Answer:
131.5 kJ
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction.
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
First, we will calculate the standard enthalpy of the reaction (ΔH°).
ΔH° = 1 mol × ΔH°f(CaO(s)) + 1 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂(g)
) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(CaCO₃(s)
)
ΔH° = 1 mol × (-634.9 kJ/mol) + 1 mol × (-393.5 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-1207.6 kJ/mol)
ΔH° = 179.2 kJ
Then, we calculate the standard entropy of the reaction (ΔS°).
ΔS° = 1 mol × S°(CaO(s)) + 1 mol × S°(CO₂(g)
) - 1 mol × S°(CaCO₃(s)
)
ΔS° = 1 mol × (38.1 J/mol.K) + 1 mol × (213.8 J/mol.K) - 1 mol × (91.7 J/mol.K)
ΔS° = 160.2 J/K = 0.1602 kJ/K
Finally, we calculate the standard Gibbs free energy of the reaction at T = 25°C = 298 K.
ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS°
ΔG° = 179.2 kJ - 298 K × 0.1602 kJ/K
ΔG° = 131.5 kJ
