Answer:

The value of dissociation constant of an acid 5.0\times 10^{5}.

Explanation:

The pK_a of an acid = -5.7

The dissociation constant of the reaction = K_a

The relation between pK_a and K_a is given by ;

pK_a=-\log[K_a]

-5.7=-\log[K_a]

K_a=10^{-(-5.7)}=5.012\times 10^{5}\approx 5.0\times 10^{5}

The value of dissociation constant of an acid 5.0\times 10^{5}.

These are 3 questions in one but i really need help i put the most points i could give and i’ll give Brainliest !!
kap26 [50]

Answer:

1) 950 mL

2) 625 mmHg

3) 426 mL

Explanation:

1) This is the relationship between pressure and volume. This relationship looks like this:

P1*V1 = P2*V2

This means the first pressure times the initial volume is equal to the second pressure times the second volume. We are solving for the second volume. First, convert the mmHg to atm and the mL to L.

1 L * 1 atm = 1.053 atm * X

X = 0.95 L or 950 mL

2) This is the same concept as the last one. :) We don't have to convert the mmHg to atm since the answer wants it in mmHg.

750 mmHg * 0.25 L = 0.3 L * X

X = 625 mmHg

3) The relationship between volume and temperature is similar to the one between pressure and temperature (like the problem in your last question). Remember to convert degrees C to Kelvin and mL to L.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

0.4 L / 303 K = X / 323 K

X = 0.426 L pr 426 mL

These problems become much easier once you learn the relationships between the different variables (temp, pressure, volume, etc.) When you have a problem like this, I like to first determine what relationship I am dealing with and then write out what I have and what I am solving for. This helps with organizing the problem. Then just solve it like a normal algebra problem. Always remember to convert temp to Kelvin, mL to L, and pressure to atm (unless it wants it in a different unit, then just make sure all the units match).

Good luck with you studies! :)

Match each term below with its definition or description.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1. Equivalence point

2. Direct titration

3. Primary standard

4. Titrand

5. Back titration

6. Standard solution

7. Titrant

8. Indirect titration

9. End point

10. Indicator

Explanation:

1. The equivalence point is the tiration point at which the quantity or moles  of the added titrant is sufficient or equal to the quantity or moles of the analyte for the neutralization of the solution of the analyte.

2. Direct titration is a method of quantitatively determining the contents of a substance

3. A primary standard is an easily weigh-able representative of the mount of moles contained in a substance

4. A titrand is the substance of unknown concentration which is to be determined

5. The titration method that uses a given amount of an excess reagent to determine the concentration of an analyte is known as back titration

6. A standard solution is a solution of accurately known concentration

7. A titrant is a solution that has a known concentration and which is titrated unto another solution to determine the concentration of the second solution

8. Indirect titration is the process of performing a titration in athe reverse order

9. The end point is the point at which the indicator indicates that the equivalent quantities of the reagents required for a complete reaction has been added

10 An indicator is a compound used to visually determine the pH of a solution.

A barium atom attains a stable electron configuration when it bonds with
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer;

-Two chlorine atoms

Explanation;

A barium atom attains a stable electron configuration when it bonds with two chlorine atoms.

-Barium is an alkaline earth metal, in group two of the periodic table. Like other alkaline earth metal it has a valency of two which means it reacts by loosing two electrons.

-Chlorine on the other hand is a halogen (group seven element) it reacts by gaining an electron, thus two chlorine atoms will require two electrons. Therefore, Barium would attain a stable configuration by loosing two electrons to two chlorine atoms.
