Consider the acid to be HA so the equation for acid will be:

HA+H₂O---->H₃O⁺ +A⁻

Initial: 0.45 0 0 0

Final 0.45-x x x x

Kₐ= [H₃O⁺][A⁻]/[HA]

= x²/0.45-x

8.4 × 10⁻⁶= x²/0.45-x

3.78× 10⁻⁶-8.4 × 10⁻⁶x=x²

On solving equation,

x= 0.0018

[H₃O⁺]=[A⁻]=x=0.0018

pH= -log[H₃O⁺]

= -log[0.0018]

= 2.74

You have 255 mL of a 1.5 M solution, how much liquid do you need to BOIL AWAY to increase the molarity to 2.5 M?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

102ml

Explanation:

  1. by using the dilution formulae and then you slove for the second volume by making it subject of the fomular
  2. when you get it you then subtract the final volume that you got from the initial volume because they asked from the question what liquid do u need to boil away

Morphine is a well known pain killer but is highly addictive. The lethal dose of morphine varies from person to person based on
Aliun [14]

Answer:

0.252 milimoles

Explanation:

To convert mass of a substance to moles it is necessary to use the molar mass of the substance.

The formula of morphine is C₁₇H₁₉NO₃, thus, its molar mass is:

C: 17*12.01g/mol = 204.17g/mol

H: 19*1.01g/mol = 19.19g/mol

N: 1*14g/mol = 14g/mol

O: 3*16g/mol = 48g/mol.

204.17 + 19.19 + 14 + 16 = <em>285.36g/mol</em>

Thus, moles of 71.891 mg = 0.071891g:

0.071891g × (1mol / 285.36g) = 2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles

As 1 mole = 1000 milimoles:

2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles = <em>0.252 milimoles</em>
