Answer:

2.90 × 10⁻³

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

pH: 1.80

Concentration of the weak acid (Ca): 0.086 M

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of H⁺

We will use the following expression.

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = antilog -pH = antilog -1.80

[H⁺] = 0.0158 M

Step 3: Calculate the acid dissociation constant (Ka)

We will use the following expression.

Ka = [H⁺]² / Ca

Ka = 0.0158² / 0.086

Ka = 2.90 × 10⁻³

Help ..... a chemical equation for this problem ..:
baherus [9]
Ag+1and S-2and then you have to offset it..because Ag has one positive charge and S has 2 negative charges you then need one more Ag+1 to cancelled out the charges with S-2 as result the formula is Ag2S

Determine the molality of an aqueous solution that is 15.5 percent urea by mass.
DaniilM [7]

15.5% by mass is equivalent 15.5 g urea in 100 g solution or 155 g urea in 1 kg solution. <span>

<span>we know that molality = moles solute / kg solvent

<span>moles solute = 155 g / 60 g/mol = 2.58 moles urea

</span></span></span>

Since there are 155 g urea in 1000g solution, hence the solvent is 845 g or 0.845 kg

So:<span>
<span>molality = 2.58 / 0.845 = 3.06 m</span></span>

In a chemical process, you need to force a compound to bond with a halogen, causing it to lose hydrogen. Which type of reaction
Kazeer [188]
Answer is Halogenation because Halogenation is a type of substitution reaction in which a hydrogen atom is replaced by a halogen atom in a molecule.
The molecule looses its hydrogen atom as the halogen is introduced into the molecule. This sort of reaction is very common in organic chemistry. Many hydrocarbons can be halogenated in the presence of light.
