Answer:

b) 3.10

Explanation:

HF ⇄ H + + F

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

pH = pKa + log [A-]/[HA].

Where;

pKa = Dissociation constant = -log Ka

Hence, pKa of HF = -log 7.2 x 10^-4 = 3.14266

[A-] = concentration of conjugate base after dissociation = moles of base/total volume

          = 0.15 x 0.3/0.8

               = 0.05625 M

[HA] = concentration of the acid = moles of acid/total volume

             = 0.10 x 0.5/0.8

                    = 0.0625 M

Note: <em>Total volume = 500 + 300 = 800 mL = 0.8 dm3</em>

pH = 3.14266 + log [0.05625/0.0625]

      = 3.14267 + (-0.04575749056)

           = 3.09691250944

<em>From all the available options below:</em>

<em>a) 2.97 </em>

<em>b) 3.10 </em>

<em>c) 3.19 </em>

<em>d) 3.22 </em>

<em>e) 3.32</em>

The correct option is b.

Answer:

c = 0.898 J/g.°C

Explanation:

1) Given data:

Mass of water = 23.0 g

Initial temperature = 25.4°C

Final temperature = 42.8° C

Heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C

ΔT = 42.8°C - 25.4°C

ΔT = 17.4°C

Q = 23.0 g ×  × 4.18 J/g°C × 17.4°C

Q = 1672.84 j

2) Given data:

Mass of metal = 120.7 g

Initial temperature = 90.5°C

Final temperature = 25.7 ° C

Heat released = 7020 J

Specific heat capacity of metal = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 25.7°C - 90.5°C

ΔT = -64.8°C

7020 J = 120.7 g ×  c ×  -64.8°C

7020 J = -7821.36 g.°C ×  c

c = 7020 J / -7821.36 g.°C

c = 0.898 J/g.°C

Negative sign shows heat is released.

How many grams of solute are needed to make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution? Round to three significant digits.
Marysya12 [62]

4.648 gm of solute is needed to make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution.

Solution:  

We will start with the Molarity  

\text { Molarity }=\text { Mole of solute } \div \text { liter of solution }

Also we know 1000 ml = 1 L

Therefore 37.5 ml by 1000ml we obtained 0.0375L  

Equation for solving mole of solute

\text { Mole of solute }=\text { Molarity } \times \text { Liters of solution }

Now, multiply 0.750M by 0.0375

Substitute the known values in the above equation we get

0.750 \times 0.0375=0.0281

Also we know that Molar mass of KI is 166 g/mol

So divide the molar mass value to get the no of grams.

0.028 \times 166=4.648

So 4.648 gm of Solute is required for make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution.

Which of the following have the most similar properties?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

             Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)

Explanation:

                  Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,

Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

                                           2 Na  +  Cl₂    →     NaCl

                                           Mg  +  Cl₂    →    MgCl₂

As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.

Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.

Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

                                           2 K  +  Cl₂    →     KCl

                                           Ca  +  Cl₂    →    CaCl₂

As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

d= 50.23 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

radius = 137.9 pm

mass is = 5.5 × 10−22 g

density = ?

Solution:

volume of sphere= 4/3π r³

First of all we calculate the volume:

v= 4/3π r3

v= 1.33× 3.14× (137.9)³

v= 1.33 × 3.14 × 2622362.939 pm³

v= 1.095 × 10∧7 pm³

v= 1.095 × 10∧-23 cm³

Formula:

Density:

d=m/v

d= 5.5 × 10−22 g/ 1.095 × 10∧-23 cm³

d= 5.023 × 10∧+1 g/cm³

d= 50.23 g/cm³

A chemist prepares a solution by dissolving 0.3 mole of CaCl2 in enough water to make 1000 mL of solution. What is the molar con
Rasek [7]
CaCl_{2} dissolves in water to give Ca^{2+} and Cl^{-} ions according to the following reaction:

CaCl_{2}  -------->  Ca^{2+}  + 2Cl^{-}

So, according to the above reaction, 1 mole of CaCl_{2} produce 2 moles of Cl^{-} ion,

So, 0.3 mole will give = 0.3 x 2 = 0.6 moles of  Cl^{-} ion

So, Molar concentration = \frac{0.6moles}{1L} = 0.6

Note: 1L = 1000mL
