It called cation, Well, When an atom gains or loses an electron, it attains a net charge and becomes an ion. When electrons are lost, the resulting ion is called cation and when electrons are gained, the resulting ion is called an anion. So, Cations have a net positive charge, while anions have a net negative charge. it is true.

Calculate the number of grams of carbon dioxide produced from 6 moles of oxygen gas. List only the number of grams of carbon dio
faust18 [17]

Answer:

g CO2(g) = 264.06 g

Explanation:

  • C(s)  + O2(g) → CO2(g)

∴ moles O2(g) = 6 mol

∴ mm CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

⇒ mol CO2(g) = ( 6 mol O2(g) )×( mol CO2(g) / mol O2(g) ) = 6 mol CO2(g)

⇒ mass CO2(g) = ( 6 mol CO2(g) )×( 44.01 g/mol ) = 264.06 g CO2(g)

What is the ph of a solution of 0.50 m acetic acid?
frosja888 [35]
You need to use the Ka for the acetic acid and the equilibrium equation.

Ka = 1.85 * 10^ -5

Equilibrium reaction: CH3COOH (aq) ---> CH3COO(-) + H(+)

Ka = [CH3COO-][H+] / [CH3COOH]

Molar concentrations at equilibrium

CH3COOH         CH3COO-     H+

 0.50  - x                  x                 x

Ka = x*x / (0.50 - x) = x^2 / (0.50 - x)

Given that Ka is << 1 => 0.50 >> x and 0.50 - x ≈ 0.50

=> Ka ≈ x^2 / 0.50

=> x^2 ≈ 0.50 * Ka = 0.50 * 1.85 * 10^ -5 = 0.925 * 10^ - 5 = 9.25 * 10 ^ - 6

=> x = √ [9.25 * 10^ -6] = 3.04 * 10^ -3 ≈ 0.0030

pH = - log [H+] = - log (x) = - log (0.0030) = 2.5

Answer: 2.5
