Arrhenius theory is a theory about acids and bases. It says that acids are those substances that produces hydrogen ions (H+) when in solution and bases are the substances that dissiociates and produces hydroxide ions (OH-). It was introduced by Svante Arrhenius.
Answer:
Kₐ = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴
Explanation:
First lets write the equilibrium expression, Ka , for the dissociation of hydrofluoric acid:
HF + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + F⁻
Kₐ = [ H₃O⁺ ] [ F⁻ ] /[ [ HF ]
Since we are given the pH we can calculate the [ H₃O⁺ ] ( pH = - log [ H₃O⁺ ] , and because the acid dissociates into a 1: 1 relation , we will also have [F⁻ ]. The [ HF ] is given in the question so we have all the information that is needed to compute Kₐ.
pH = -log [ H₃O⁺ ]
1.68 = - log [ H₃O⁺ ]
Taking antilog to both sides of this equation:
10^-1.68 = [ H₃O⁺ ] ⇒ 2.1 X 10⁻² M= [ H₃O⁺ ]
[ F⁻ ] = 2.1 X 10⁻² M
Solving for Kₐ :
Kₐ = ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) x ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) / 0.65 = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴
(Rounded to two significant figures, the powers of 10 have infinite precision )
Let x represent the total distance around the track
Jason's distance: (5/7)x
Sara ran (4/5) of Jason's distance,
so she ran (4/5)*(5/7)x = (4/7)x
Sara ran 4/7 of the total distance
Answer:
Mutations can be caused by high-energy sources such as radiation or by chemicals in the environment. They can also appear spontaneously during the replication of DNA. Mutations generally fall into two types: point mutations and chromosomal aberrations. In point mutations, one base pair is changed. A single mutation can have a large effect, but in many cases, evolutionary change is based on the accumulation of many mutations with small effects. Mutational effects can be beneficial, harmful, or neutral, depending on their context or location. Most non-neutral mutations are deleterious.
Have an awesome day friend! <3
