Answer:

1.3×10⁻³ M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of acetic acid:

CH_3CO_2H(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq) + CH_3CO_2^-(aq)

We can write the law of mass action for it:

Ka=\frac{[H_3O^+][CH_3CO_2^-]}{[CH_3CO_2H]}

Of course, excluding the water as heterogeneous substances are not included. Then, in terms of the change x due to the dissociation extent, we are able to rewrite it as shown below:

1.8x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.100-x}

Thus, via the quadratic equation or solve, we obtain the following solutions:

x_1=-0.00135M\\x_2=0.00133M

Obviously, the solution is 0.00133M which match with the hydronium concentration, thus, answer is: 1.3×10⁻³ M in scientific notation.

Regards.

Answer:

1.3×10^-3 M

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question:

Equilibrium constant (Ka) = 1.8×10^-5

Concentration of acetic acid, [CH3COOH] = 0.100 M

Concentration of hydronium ion, [H3O+] =..?

Step 2:

The balanced equation for the reaction.

CH3CO2H(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ H3O+(aq) + CH3CO2-(aq)

Step 3:

Determination of concentration of hydronium ion, [H3O+].

This can be obtained as follow:

Ka = [H3O+] [CH3CO2-] / [CH3CO2H]

Initial concentration:

[CH3COOH] = 0.100 M

[H3O+] = 0

[CH3CO2-] = 0

During reaction

[CH3COOH] = – y

[H3O+] = +y

[CH3CO2-] = +y

Equilibrium:

[CH3COOH] = 0.1 – y

[H3O+] = y

[CH3CO2-] = y

Ka = [H3O+] [CH3CO2-] / [CH3CO2H]

1.8×10^-5 = y × y / 0.1

Cross multiply

y^2 = 1.8×10^-5 x 0.1

Take the square root of both side

y = √(1.8×10^-5 x 0.1)

y = 1.3×10^-3 M

[H3O+] = y = 1.3×10^-3 M

Therefore, the concentration of the hydronium ion, [H3O+] is 1.3×10^-3 M

What is the vapor pressure of a liquid at 305.03 K if its ∆Hvap = 28.9 kJ/mol and its normal boiling point is 341.88 K?
ASHA 777 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The vapor pressure of the liquid is 0.293 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the vapor pressure of the liquid, we use the Clausius-Clayperon equation, which is:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

P_1 = initial pressure which is the pressure at normal boiling point = 1 atm

P_2 = pressure of the liquid = ?

\Delta H_{vap} = Heat of vaporization = 28.9 kJ/mol = 28900 J/mol     (Conversion factor: 1 kJ = 1000 J)

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T_1 = initial temperature = 341.88 K

T_2 = final temperature = 305.03 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{1})=\frac{28900J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{341.88}-\frac{1}{305.03}]\\\\\ln P_2=-1.228atm\\\\P_2=e^{-1.228}=0.293atm

Hence, the vapor pressure of the liquid is 0.293 atm

Caroline has a condition where the amount of oxygen her blood can hold is greatly reduced. This leads to a decrease in oxygen su
Sphinxa [80]
The correct answer is : Circulatory and respiratory.

This condition primarily affects Caroline's circulatory system. Since the main purpose of the circulatory system is to supply the rest of the body with oxygen, this condition is greatly reducing the effectiveness of the circulatory system.
The decrease in oxygen supply to the lungs causes the reduction of the respiratory system effectivness as well, since the lung cells need oxygen for their metabolic processes.
