They are also called the noble gases or inert gases. They are virtually unreactive towards other elements or compounds. They are found in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Their elemental form at room temperature is colorless, odorless and monatomic gases. They also have full octet of eight valence electrons in their highest orbitals so they have a very little tendency to gain or lose electrons to form ions or share electrons with other elements in covalent bonds.

A solution of acetic acid has a pH of 3.45. What is the concentration of acetic acid in this solution? Ka for CH3COOH is 1.8×10-
Serjik [45]

Answer:

0.007 M

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

Thus,  

pH = - log [H⁺]

The expression of the pH of the calculation of weak acid is:-

pH=-log(\sqrt{k_a\times C})

Where, C is the concentration = ?

Given, pH = 3.45

So, for CH_3COOH, K_a=1.8\times 10^{-5}

3.45=-log(\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-5}\times C})

\log _{10}\left(\sqrt{1.8\cdot \:10^{-5}C}\right)=-3.45

C = 0.007 M

How many grams of KCI can be dissolved in 63.5. g of water at 80
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

35.8 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of water: 63.5 g

Step 2: Calculate how many grams of KCl can be dissolved in 63.5. g of water at 80 °C

Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in 100 g of solute at a specified temperature. The solubility of KCl at 80 °C is 56.3 g%g, that is, we can dissolve up to 56.3 g of KCl in 100 g of water.

63.5 g Water × 56.3 g KCl/100 g Water = 35.8 g KCl

A ring costs $36 more than a bracelet. the cost of the bracelet is 4/7 the cost of the ring. find the total of the two items.
avanturin [10]
So let's use some equations to represent the data [let R= cost of ring & B= cost of bracelet]

R= B + $ 36 .... (1)

B= \frac{4}{7} × R ... (2)

By using simultaneous equations to solve for B and R.
Substitute eq. (1) into eq. (2)

      B =  \frac{4}{7} × (B + $36)

      B = \frac{4}{7}B + \frac{144}{7}

     ( \frac{7}{7}  -  \frac{4}{7} ) B =  \frac{144}{7}

     \frac{3}{7} B =   \frac{144}{7}

⇒  B = $48

By substituting value of B into ea (1)

If R = B + $36
   
   R = ($48) + $36
     
      = $84

∴  <span> the total of the two items = R + B
                                             = $84 + $48
</span>                                             = $132

What is the density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.5 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 C?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer: The density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.50 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 °C is 0.867 g/L.

Explanation:

  • d = m/V, where d is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume.
  • We have the mass m = 0.50 g, so we must get the volume V.
  • To get the volume of a gas, we apply the general gas law PV = nRT

P is the pressure in atm (P = 1.5 atm)

V is the volume in L (V = ??? L)

n is the number of moles in mole, n = m/Atomic mass, n = 0.50/12.0 = 0.416 mole.

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K).

T is the temperature in K (T(K) = T(°C) + 273 = -20.0 + 273 = 253 K).

  • Then, V = nRT/P = (0.416 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(253 K) / (1.5 atm) = 0.576 L.
  • Now, we can obtain the density; d = m/V = (0.50 g) / (0.576 L) = 0.867 g/L.
