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.

Define the boiling and evaporation using kinetic theory
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

By the kinetic molecular theory (particle model), all matter consists of particles, there are spaces between the particles, the particles are in constant random motion, and there are forces of attraction and repulsion between the particles.

Furthermore, temperature is defined to be a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

Evaporation is a change of phase from liquid to gas explained as follows :

When particles in the liquid phase are heated, they gain kinetic energy and move faster and further apart. Eventually they have enough energy to escape the forces of attraction holding them together in the liquid phase and they move very fast and far from each other and exist in the gaseous phase.

How are energy and work related? A. Energy is the force needed to do work B. Work times energy is force C. Energy is the capacit
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

I believe the answer is A

Explanation:

Work and energy are related because when you work, you cause displacement in the object you are exerting upon. While this happens, you transfer energy between the systems. Both work and energy share the same SI unit, called the joule.
