Calculate the concentration of all species in a 0.165 m solution of h2co3.

Chemistry

(1) H2CO3 + H2O --> HCO3- + H3O+ [Ka = 4.5E-7]  

(2) HCO3- + H2O --> CO32- + H3O+ [Ka = 4.7E-11]  

Observe that the two Ka values differ from each other drastically. This will mean that in terms of pH, ONLY THE FIRST IONIZATION WILL AFFECT pH.  

(1) H2CO3 + H2O --> HCO3- + H3O+ [Ka = 4.5E-7]  

I.....0.165M..................0..........  

C......-x......................+x........  

E....0.165-x.................x...........  

4.5E-7 = x^2/(0.165-x) <-- use the appoximation rule because Ka is very small  

2.72E-4 = x  

Thus, from equation (1), we see that the [H3O+] = 2.72E-4M, [H2CO3] = 0.165M, and [HCO3-]= 2.72E-4M. Note that THIS step will determine the pH of the polyprotic acid  

To calculate the last species, just transfer these values the next equation  

(2) HCO3- + H2O --> CO32- + H3O+ [Ka = 4.7E-11]  

I....2.72E-4..................0..........  

C  

E  

4.7E-11 = (x*2.72E-4)/2.72E-4  

4.7E-11 = x = [CO32-]  

To calculate the OH- from H3O+, just find the pH of H3O+, subtract it from 14 to find the pOH, and find the [OH-] from that.

The head loss in a turbulent flow in a pipe varies Approximant as square of velocity • Direct as the velocity • Invers as square
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Head loss in turbulent flow is varying as square of velocity.

Explanation:

As we know that head loss in turbulent flow given as

h_F=\dfrac{FLV^2}{2gD}

Where

F is the friction factor.

L is the length of pipe

V is the flow velocity

D is the diameter of pipe.

So from above equation we can say that

h_F\alpha V^2

It means that head loss in turbulent flow is varying as square of velocity.

We know that loss in flow are of two types

1.Major loss :Due to surface property of pipe

2.Minor loss :Due to change in momentum of fluid.
