Answer:
The mixture is not in equilibrium, the reaction will shift to the left.
Explanation:
<em>Based on the equilibrium:</em>
<em>Fe³⁺+ HSCN ⇄ FeSCN²⁺ + H⁺</em>
<em>kc = 30 = [FeSCN²⁺] [H⁺] / [Fe³⁺] [HSCN]</em>
Where [] are concentrations at equilibrium. The reaction is in equilibrium when the ratio of concentrations = kc
Q is the same expression than kc but with [] that are not in equilibrium
Replacing:
Q = [10.0M] [1.0M] / [0.1M] [0.1M]
Q = 1000
As Q > kc, the reaction will shift to the left in order to produce Fe³⁺ and HSCN untill Q = Kc

Answer:
a. 1.78x10⁻³ = Ka
2.75 = pKa
b. It is irrelevant.
Explanation:
a. The neutralization of a weak acid, HA, with a base can help to find Ka of the acid.
Equilibrium is:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
And Ka is defined as:
Ka = [H⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]
The HA reacts with the base, XOH, thus:
HA + XOH → H₂O + A⁻ + X⁺
As you require 26.0mL of the base to consume all HA, if you add 13mL, the moles of HA will be the half of the initial moles and, the other half, will be A⁻
That means:
[HA] = [A⁻]
It is possible to obtain pKa from H-H equation (Equation used to find pH of a buffer), thus:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
Replacing:
2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
As [HA] = [A⁻]
2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ 1
<h3>2.75 = pKa</h3>
Knowing pKa = -log Ka
2.75 = -log Ka
10^-2.75 = Ka
<h3>1.78x10⁻³ = Ka</h3>
b. As you can see, the initial concentration of the acid was not necessary. The only thing you must know is that in the half of the titration, [HA] = [A⁻]. Thus, the initial concentration of the acid doesn't affect the initial calculation.
Answer:
Not being able to adapt to their surroundings
Explanation:
For example, a population living in a cold climate and wears little to no clothes will give them frost bite. And so the nature of needing to adapt is core to survival.
