Which acid is the best choice to create a buffer with ph= 3.19?

<span>The best choice is hypochlorous acid nitrous acid (HNO2) because it has the nearest value of pK to the desired pH.
pKa of </span>nitrous acid<span> is 3.34 
If we know pKa and pH values,  we can calculate the required ratio of conjugate base (NO2⁻) to acid (HNO2) from the following equation:
pH=pKa + log(conc. of base)/( conc. of acid)
</span><span>3.19=3.34 + log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
</span><span>3.19 - 3.34 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
-0.15 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2) = 10⁰¹⁵ = 1.41

Homes in rural areas where natural gas service is not available often rely on propane to fuel kitchen ranges. The propane is sto
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

2666.7 hours

Explanation:

The key to solve this problem is that we are given the propane gas consumed in one hour by giving us the information of the volume consumed at 1 atm, 298 K (25 +273). Using the gas law we can calculate the rate of consumption  of propane per hour, and from here we can calculate its mass and converting it to gallons and finally diving the 400 gallos by this number.

PV = nRT ∴ n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm x 165 L/ (0.08206 Latm/kmol x 298 K ) = 6.75 mol propane

Mass propane :

6.75 mol x 44 g/mol = 296.88 g

convert this to Kg:

296.88 g/ 1000 g/Kg = 0.30 Kg

calculate the volume in liters this represents by dividing by the density:

0.30 Kg / 0.5077 Kg/L =  0.59 L

changing this to gallons

0.59 L x  1 gallon/3.785 L = 0.15 gallon

and finally calculate how many hours the 400 gallons propane tank will deliver

400 gallon/ 0.15 gallon/hr = 2666.7 hr

The temperature of a sample of silver increased by 23.8 °C
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

46.67 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 23.8 °C

Heat (Q) = 261 J

Specific heat capacity (C) of silver = 0.235 J/gºC

Mass of silver (M) =?

The mass of the sample of silver can be obtained as follow:

Q = MCΔT

261 = M × 0.235 × 23.8

261 = M × 5.593

Divide both side by 5.593

M = 261 / 5.593

M = 46.67 g

Thus, the mass of the sample of silver is 46.67 g

Rank these photons in terms of increasing energy:<br> (a) blue (λ=453nm)
alexira [117]

The increasing order of photons in terms of energy is Er < Ey < Eb

A photon is a tiny particle of electromagnetic radiation and its energy is proportional to the frequency and rest mass as zero.

By using the formula:

E = h * ν

E = h * c / λ

h = planks constant

c = speed of light

Since h * c is constant

E is inversely proportional to wavelength  λ

For blue:

λ = 453 nm

Eb= k / 453

where k is constant

For red:

λ = 660 nm

Er = k / 660

For yellow:

λ = 595 nm

Ey = k / 595

Therefore,

The increasing order of photons in terms of energy is

Er < Ey < Eb.
