Answer is: ph value is 3.56.
Chemical reaction 1: H₂CO₃(aq) ⇄ HCO₃⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₁ = 4,3·10⁻⁷.
Chemical reaction 2: HCO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ CO₃²⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq); Ka₂ = 5,6·10⁻¹¹.
c(H₂CO₃) = 0,18 M.
[HCO₃⁻] = [H⁺<span>] = x.
</span>[H₂CO₃] = 0,18 M - x.
Ka₁ = [HCO₃⁻] · [H⁺] / [H₂CO₃].
4,3·10⁻⁷ = x² / (0,18 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [H⁺] =0,000293 M.
pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(0,000293 M).
pH = 3,56; second Ka do not contributes pH value a lot.

Jenna built the electrical circuit seen here. What would happen to the electrical energy if Jenna removed one of the clips on th
otez555 [7]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An electric circuit works well when all the connections are complete but if any of the connections in the circuit is loose or disconnected then it is possible that current will not flow from the circuit.

Therefore, when Jenna removed one of the clips on the battery then circuit becomes incomplete and as a result there will no flow of current.

Thus, we can conclude that the electrical energy would stop because the circuit is incomplete.

The maximum efficiency possible in an energy conversion process that is not limited by the second law of thermodynamics
Anna [14]

Answer:

100 %

Explanation:

The maximun efficiency possible (whem not limited by the  second law of thermodynamics) happens when all the energy used is transformed into the type of energy we required with no other transformations.

For example, in an engine we want that all the energy we supply is being converted to work. That's the ideal case, but in reality always some of that energy is lost in the form of heat.
