Nh3 is a weak base (kb = 1.8 × 10–5 m) and so the salt nh4cl acts as a weak acid. what is the ph of a solution that is 0.013 m i

n nh4cl?

First, we need to get the value of Ka:

when Ka = Kw / Kb 

we have Kb = 1.8 x 10^-5 

and Kw = 3.99 x 10^-16  so, by substitution:

Ka = (3.99 x 10^-16) /  (1.8 x 10^-5) = 2.2 x 10^-11

by using the ICE table :

                 NH4+  + H2O →NH3 +  H+
intial          0.013                       0         0 

change       -X                          +X      +X

Equ        (0.013-X)                      X         X

when Ka = [NH3][H+] / [NH4+] 

by substitution:

2.2 x 10^-11 = X^2 / (0.013 - X)  by solving this equation for X

∴X = 5.35 x 10^-7

∴[H+] = X = 5.35 x 10^-7

∴PH = - ㏒[H+]
 
        = -㏒(5.35 x 10^-7)
        = 6.27

Describe the distribution of mass within an atom
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The nuclei of most atoms also contain neutrons . The masses of subatomic particles are very tiny. ... Since the nucleus contains protons and neutrons, most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus. Protons and electrons have electrical charges that are equal and opposite.

Which scientist arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic number, rather than increasing atomic mass?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Henry Moseley

Explanation:

Dmitry Mendeleef and Lothar Meyer proposed a periodic table based on the atomic mass.

They stated a periodic law expressed as "chemical properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic weights".

But, Henry Moseley in 1900s re-stated periodic law by changing the basis of the law from atomic weight to atomic number.

The present periodic law is stated as "the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number".
