1. The sun’s thermal energy is exhibited from its surface traveling to the ocean floor in the day

2. As the heat energy is absorbed by the water, the currents move and rise as the ocean waters from the equator heads to the north phase of the planet.

3. And then the waters from the polar areas heads to the south, while ascending and gushing it becomes heated by the sun.

The sun’s gravity also affects this body of water. Since it has a much more stronger gravitation pull than of earth though its far away hence, high tide and low tide tendencies.

The heat moves in predictable ways, flowing from warmer objects to cooler ones, until both reach the same temperature. When air is in contact with the ocean at a different temperature than the sea surface, heat transfer by a conductor. The ocean absorbs and stores energy from the sun and when precipitation falls , it release heat energy in the atmosphere(air)

It is important because if the sample size is smaller, outliers could skew the data more than if it was large.

A solution is made by adding 50.0 ml of 0.200 m acetic acid (ka = 1.8 x 10–5) to 50.0 ml of 1.00 x 10–3m hcl. (a) calculate the

Answer:

Final pH of the solution: 2.79.

Explanation:

What's in the solution after mixing?

$\displaystyle c = \frac{n}{V}$ ,

where

$c$ is the concentration of the solute,

$n$ is the number of moles of the solute, and

$V$ is the volume of the solution.

$V(\text{Final}) = 0.050 \;\textbf{L} + 0.050\;\textbf{L} = 0.100\;\textbf{L}$ .

Acetic (ethanoic) acid:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}n &= c(\text{Before})\cdot V(\text{Before}) \\&= 0.050\;\text{L} \times 0.200\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-1}\\ &= 0.0100\;\text{mol}\end{aligned}$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}c(\text{After}) &= \frac{n}{V(\text{After})}\\ &= \frac{0.0100\;\text{mol}}{0.100\;\text{L}}\\ &= 0.100\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1}\\ &= 0.100\;\text{M}\end{aligned}$ .

Hydrochloric acid HCl:

$\begin{aligned}n &= c(\text{Before})\cdot V(\text{Before})\\ &= 0.050\;\text{L} \times 1.00\times 10^{-3}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-1}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-5}\;\text{mol}\end{aligned}$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}c(\text{After}) &= \frac{n}{V(\text{After})}\\ &= \frac{5.00\times 10^{-5}\;\text{mol}}{0.100\;\text{L}}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1}\\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}\end{aligned}$ .

HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate in water to produce H⁺. The H⁺ concentration in the solution before acetic acid dissociates shall also be $5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}$ .

The Ka value of acetic acid is considerably small. Acetic acid is a weak acid and will dissociate only partially when dissolved. Construct a RICE table to predict the portion of acetic acid that will dissociate. Let the change in acetic acid concentration be $-x\;\text{M}$ . $x > 0$ .

$\begin{array}{c|ccccc}\textbf{R}&\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}\;(aq) &\rightleftharpoons &\text{CH}_3\text{COO}^{-}\;(aq) &+& \text{H}^{+}\;(aq)\\\textbf{I}&0.100\;\text{M} & & & & 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M}\\\textbf{C}&-x\;\text{M} & & +x\;\text{M} & & +x\;\text{M} \\ \textbf{E}&0.100\;\text{M}-x\;\text{M} & & x\;\text{M} & & 5.00\times 10^{-4}\;\text{M} + x\;\text{M}\end{array}$ .

$\displaystyle K_a = \frac{[\text{CH}_3\text{COO}^{-}\;(aq)]\cdot[\text{H}^{+}\;(aq)]}{[\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}\;(aq)]} = \frac{x\cdot(x + 5.00\times 10^{-4})}{0.100 - x}$ .
