Well a hypothesis is not a statement it’s more of like an evidence based assumption, or a theory.

An analytical chemist is titrating 118.3 mL of a 0.3500 M solution of butanoic acid (HC3H7CO2) with a 0.400 M solution of KOH. T
TEA [102]

Answer:

pH = 12.33

Explanation:

Lets call HA = butanoic acid and A⁻ butanoic acid and its conjugate base butanoate respectively.

The titration reaction is

HA + KOH ---------------------------- A⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

number of moles of HA :   118.3 ml/1000ml/L x 0.3500 mol/L = 0.041 mol HA

number of  moles of OH  : 115.4 mL/1000ml/L x 0.400 mol/L  = 0.046 mol A⁻

therefore the weak acid will be completely consumed and what we have is  the unreacted strong base KOH which will drive the pH of the solution since the contribution of the conjugate base is negligible.

n unreacted KOH = 0.046 - 0.041 = 0.005 mol KOH

pOH = - log (KOH)

M KOH = 0.005 mol / (0.118.3 +0.1154)L = 0.0021 M

pOH = - log (0.0021) = 1.66

pH = 14 - 1.96 = 12.33

Note: It is a mistake to ask for the pH of the <u>acid solutio</u>n since as the above calculation shows we have a basic solution the moment all the acid has been consumed.

What cause the ratio of PV/RT to drop below 1 when 1 mole of
pentagon [3]

Answer:

pressure and temperature are directly proportional.

Explanation:

At constant temperature and pressure the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas. Also given a constant temperature and volume the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas.

This means that if V is constant then

P = n (RT/V) then n= PV/RT. As P is increased, T is also increased thereby decreasing the value of n since pressure and temperature are directly proportional.

Why is blood typing considered codominance and multiple alleles
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

An example of multiple alleles is the ABO blood-type system in humans. In this case, the IA and IB alleles are codominant with each other and are both dominant over the i allele. Although there are three alleles present in a population, each individual only gets two of the alleles from their parents.
