Loose material is compacted by pressure: the weight of the objects beginning to settle on top of it grows until it becomes immense that's how icebergs are formed too

Calculate the pH of a solution that is 0.205M benzoic acid and 0.230M sodium benzoate, a salt whose anion is the conjugate base
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

pH = 4.25

Explanation:

A solution composed of a weak acid and its conjugate base is a <em>buffer solution</em>. To calculate the pH of a buffer solution we use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation:

pH = pKa + log ([conjugate base]/[weak acid]

In this case, we have the following data:

[conjugate base] = [sodium benzoate] = 0.230 M

[weak acid] = [benzoic acid] = 0.205 M

The pKa of benzoic acid is 4.2. So, we introduce the data in the equation:

pH = 4.2 + log (0.230 M/0.205 M) = 4.2 + 0.050 = 4.25

For the reaction shown, calculate how many grams of oxygen form when each quantity of reactant completely reacts.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
The balanced chemical reaction is given as follows:

<span>2 KClO3(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g)

The starting amount of the reactant are given above. These values would be used for the calculations. We do as follows:

</span>2.72 g KClO3 (1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 1.06 g O2
<span>
0.361 g KClO3 </span>(1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.14 g O2
<span>
83.6 kg KClO3 (1000g / 1kg) </span>(1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 3275.76 g O2
<span>
22.5 mg KClO3</span> (1 g / 1000 mg) (1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.009 g O2

Heat is being transferred from the ground to the air above it by conduction. Explain how this is possible.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Conduction directly affects air temperature only a few centimeters into the atmosphere. During the day, sunlight heats the ground, which in turn heats the air directly above it via conduction. At night, the ground cools and the heat flows from the warmer air directly above to the cooler ground via conduction.

How many atoms are in 165 g of calcium?
Whitepunk [10]
Atomic mass Calcium = 40.078 a.m.u

40.078 g ---------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
165 g -------------------- ??

165 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 40.078 => 2.47x10²⁴ atoms

hope this helps!
