Answer:
Ratio of [CO₃²⁻] / [H₂CO₃] is 1.0x10⁻⁸
Explanation:
Based on the equilibriums:
H₂CO₃ ⇄ H⁺ + HCO₃⁻ Ka1 = 4.3x10⁻⁷
HCO₃⁻ ⇄ H⁺ + CO₃²⁻ Ka2 = 4.8x10⁻¹¹
The sum of both equilibriums is:
H₂CO₃ ⇄ 2 H⁺ + CO₃²⁻ K' = 4.3x10⁻⁷*4.8x10⁻¹¹ = 2.064x10⁻¹⁷
Where K' is defined as:
K' = 2.064x10⁻¹⁷ = [H⁺]² [CO₃²⁻] / [H₂CO₃]
If concentration of H⁺ is 4.5x10⁻⁵M:
K' = 2.064x10⁻¹⁷ = [4.5x10⁻⁵]² [CO₃²⁻] / [H₂CO₃]
1.0x10⁻⁸ = [CO₃²⁻] / [H₂CO₃]
Thus, <em>ratio of [CO₃²⁻] / [H₂CO₃] is 1.0x10⁻⁸</em>
Answer:
Honestly, I'm not even sure what the incorrect student was trying to do. The correct answer is:
( ) = the number of elements
(1)N2 and (3)H2
I think the student added the N2 and H2 to "balance" the chemical equation when instead they should have tried the balance the equation by making sure the atoms on the reactant side are equal to the atoms on the product side. You do this by multiplying the atoms on the reactant side until they equal the product side (not by adding them, as the student did).
A) Heat.
Friction produces heat.
