Chromic acid (H2CrO4) is an acid that is used in ceramic glazes and colored glass. The pH of a 0.078 M solution of chromic acid

is the same as the pH of a 0.059 M HCl solution. Calculate Ka for chromic acid.

Answer:

Ka = 0.1815

Explanation:

Chromic acid

pH = ?

Concentration = 0.078 M

Ka = ?

HCl

conc. = 0.059M

pH = -log(H+)

pH = -log(0.059) = 1.23

pH of chromic acid = 1.23

Step 1 - Set up Initial, Change, Equilibrium table;

H2CrO4 ⇄  H+   +   HCrO4−

Initial - 0.078M 0   0

Change : -x    +x       +x

Equilibrium : 0.078-x    x      x

Step 2- Write Ka as Ratio of Conjugate Base to Acid

The dissociation constant Ka is [H+] [HCrO4−] / [H2CrO4].

Step 3 - Plug in Values from the Table

Ka = x * x / 0.078-x

Step 4 - Note that x is Related to pH and Calculate Ka

[H+] = 10^-pH.

Since x = [H+] and you know the pH of the solution,

you can write x = 10^-1.23.

It is now possible to find a numerical value for Ka.

Ka =  (10^-1.23))^2 / (0.078 - 10^-1.23) = 0.00347 / 0.0191156

Ka = 0.1815

When magnesium combines with sulfur to form magnesium sulfide, it is oxidized to Mg2+. Which statement is true about this reacti
Vlad1618 [11]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. It involves loss of electrons.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Oxidation occurs when electrons are lost by an atom while reduction refers to the gain of electrons by an atom.
  • <u><em>In this case, magnesium atom reacts with sulfur to form magnesium sulfide by loosing two electrons and forming magnesium ion (Mg2+). Therefore magnesium undergoes oxidation.</em></u>
  • Sulfur, on the other hand will gain electrons to form Sulfide ions, therefore it undergoes reduction.
  • Therefore;<em><u> In magnesium sulfide (MgS), magnesium loses two electrons and becomes a cation with a positive-two charge. Likewise, sulfur obtains the two electrons lost from magnesium and becomes an anion with a negative-two charge. However, the overall charge of MgS is zero.</u></em>

The following is a sample question for brainliest. Brainliest will be given to the person who can answer the following question
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the properties, composition, and structure of elements and compounds, how they can change, and the energy that is released or absorbed when they change. Traditionally, chemistry has been broken into five main subdisciplines: Organic, Analytical, Physical, Inorganic and Biochemistry. Chemistry is involved in everything we do. The reason why chemistry touches everything we do is because almost everything in existence can be broken down into chemical building blocks.

Explanation:

Hope this helps

If a substance changes from one phase to another, is it still same substance? why
shutvik [7]
When you boil water, you aren't changing the elements. You're just making water vapor. However, when you burn paper, it becomes carbon (mostly). So physical changes will not change the substance, only chemical changes will.

How do you Calculate the molarity of 250 ml of solution in which 2.7 g of MgCl2 are dissolved
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Molar mass of MgCl2 is 95 g/mol

Mg = 24 g/mol and Cl = 35.5 ×2 = 71 g/mol

moles = mass given/ molar mass

= 2.7/95 = 0.028 mol

volume = 250/1000 = 0.25 dm3 (ml is the same as dm3)

molarity of MgCl2 = moles/volume

= 0.028/0.25

= 0.112 mol/dm3

. the density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (v). densit
ale4655 [162]

Density is intensive because it is the ratio of two extensive properties that is mass to volume.

<h3>What is Density ?</h3>

Density is defined as mass per unit volume. S.I unit if density is kg/m³.

It is expressed as

Density = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}  or d = \frac{m}{V}

<h3>What is Intensive Property ? </h3>

Intensive property is the property which does not depend on the size of the system. Intensive property can be easily identified. Intensive property is the independent property. The size does not change in this.

Example of intensive property are Density, Freezing point, melting point, colour, Lustre, etc.  

<h3>What is Extensive property ?</h3>

Extensive property is the property which depend on the substance. Extensive property cannot be easily identified.

Example of extensive property length, weight, volume, mass etc.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Density is intensive because it is the ratio of two extensive properties that is mass to volume.

Disclaimer: The given question is incomplete on the portal. Here is the complete question.

Question: The density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (v)

density = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}  or d = \frac{m}{V}

Considering that mass and volume are both extensive properties, explain why their ratio, density is intensive.
