I need points lol sorry for wasting ur time we
Answer:
the weakest acid is B) HIO
Explanation:
pKa = - log Ka
the higher the value of pKa, the lower the dissociation, therefore, an acid will be stronger the lower its pKa.
a) HC2H3O2; Ka = 1.8 E-5
⇒ pKa1 = - Log (1.8 E-5) = 4.745
b) HIO; Ka = 23 E-11
⇒ pKa2 = - Log ( 23 E-11 ) = 9.638
c) HBrO; Ka = 23 E-9
⇒ pKa3 = - Log ( 23 E-9 ) = 7.638
d) HClO; Ka = 2.9 E-8
⇒ pKa4 = - Log ( 2.9 E-8 ) = 7.537
e) HCO2H; Ka = 63 E-5
⇒ pKa5 = - Log ( 63 E-5 ) = 3.200
from the values pKa, we places the acids from the weakest to the least weak:
1) pKa2; HIO (weakest)
2) pKa3
3) pKa4
4) pKa1
5) pKa5
Is this a multiple choice? Anyways I will just give you a written answer and hopefully it helps.
A: Helium is made up of two electrons held by electromagnetic force to two protons that are inside of a nucleus along with one or two neutrons.
On the left side would be your reactants and the right would be your products
Answer:
hope this helped :( got this from my friend a long time ago but still not sure if it's really correct this
