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 mass of snow (in tons) on a 150.0ft by 45.0 ft flat roof after a 6.0 inch snowfall? Assume that 11 inches of snow is
Aneli [31]
6 inches of snowfall would be equivalent to 6/11 inches of water or 6/132 feet. So the volume of the equivalent amount of water on the roof is 150 ft. x 45 ft. x 6/132ft. = 306.8 cubic feet.   
Since there are 907185 grams in a ton and 28316.8 mL in a cubic foot, 1.00 g/mL is equivalent to 0.0312 tons/cubic foot  
Multiplying the two results gives 9.58 tons of snow.
