Human fat has a density of 0.918 g/cm^3. How much volume (in cm^3) is gained by a person who gains 10.1 lbs of pure fat?

1 answer:

8 0

Density is a physical property which describes the mass of a substance per unit of volume of the substance. It is expressed as Density = m / V and it has units like g/cm^3. We use the density given to solve the problem.
<span>
10.1 lbs (1 kg/2.2 lb)(1000 g / 1kg) / 0.918 g / cm^3 = 5001 cm^3</span>

The ka of acetic acid ch3co2h is 1.8 x10-5. what is the ph

AysviL [449]

You must know the concentration of the acetic acid. Suppose the concentration is 0.1 M. The solution is as follows:

CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺
I 0.1 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 0.1 - x x x

Ka = (x)(x)/(0.1 - x)
1.8×10⁻⁵ = x²/(0.1 - x)
Solving for x,
x = 1.333×10⁻³ = H⁺

pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(1.333×10⁻³)
pH = 2.88

Ka/KbMIXED PRACTICE108.Calculate the [H3O+(aq)], the pH, and the % reaction for a 0.50 mol/L HCN solution. ([H3O+(aq)] = 1.8 x 1

NeTakaya

Answer:

a) [H₃O⁺] = 1.8x10⁻⁵ M

b) pH = 4.75

c) % rxn = 3.5x10⁻³ %

Explanation:

a) The dissociation reaction of HCN is:

HCN(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + CN⁻(aq)

0.5 M - x x x

The dissociation constant from the above reactions is given by:

$Ka = \frac{[H_{3}O^{+}][CN^{-}]}{[HCN]} = 6.17 \cdot 10^{-10}$

$6.17 \cdot 10^{-10} = \frac{x*x}{(0.5 - x)}$

$6.17 \cdot 10^{-10}*(0.5 - x) - x^{2} = 0$

By solving the above quadratic equation we have:

x = 1.75x10⁻⁵ M = 1.8x10⁻⁵ M = [H₃O⁺] = [CN⁻]

Hence, the [H₃O⁺] is 1.8x10⁻⁵ M.

b) The pH is equal to:

$pH = -log[H_{3}O^{+}] = -log(1.75 \cdot 10^{-5} M) = 4.75$

Then, the pH of the HCN solution is 4.75.

c) The % reaction is the % ionization:

$\% = \frac{x}{[HCN]} \times 100$

$\% = \frac{1.75 \cdot 10^{-5} M}{0.5 M} \times 100$

$\% = 3.5 \cdot 10^{-3} \%$

Therefore, the % reaction or % ionization is 3.5x10⁻³ %.

I hope it helps you!

Liquids and solids are referred to as "condensed phases" because the attractive forces cause molecules to become stationary. lea

Savatey [412]

Answer:

leave little space between the molecules.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of small particles called molecules. These molecules present in matter are arranged inside its bulk.

In liquids and solids, the molecules are arranged very close together in such a way that there is only a little space between them. This is why liquids and solids are referred to as "condensed phases".

They are quite unlike gases where there is a lot of space between gas molecules.
