(a) Given that Ka for acetic acid is 1.8 X 10^-5 and that for hypochlorous acid is 3.0 X 10^-8, which is the stronger acid? (b)

Which is the stronger base, the acetate ion or the hypochlorite ion? (c) Calculate Kb values for CH3COO- and ClO-.

Answer:

HOAc is stronger acid than HClO

ClO⁻ is stronger conjugate base than OAc⁻

Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷

Explanation:

Assume 0.10M HOAc => H⁺ + OAc⁻  with Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

=> [H⁺] = √Ka·[Acid] =√(1.8 x 10⁻⁵)(0.10) M = 1.3 x 10⁻³M H⁺

Assume 0.10M HClO => H⁺ + ClO⁻ with Ka = 3 x 10⁻⁸

=> [H⁺] = √(3 x 10⁻⁸)(0.10)M = 5.47 x 10⁻⁵M H⁺

HOAc delivers more H⁺ than HClO and is more acidic.

Kb = Kw/Ka, Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷

open the phase diagram for co2 given in the introduction again. use the phase diagram for co2 in the interactive activity and de
Annette [7]

The phase diagram of CO2 has a melting curve that slopes up and to the right, in contrast to the phase diagram of water, which has a more conventional shape. It is impossible for liquid CO2 to exist at pressures lower than 5.11 atm because the triple point is 5.11 atm and 56.6 °C.

Due to the fact that ice is less thick than liquid water, the phase diagram of water has an odd melting point that drops with pressure. Carbon dioxide cannot exist as a liquid at atmospheric pressure, according to the phase diagram of the gas. Thus, gaseous carbon dioxide directly sublimes from solid carbon dioxide.

Will bromine react with sodium and why?
Archy [21]

<span><span>When you write down the electronic configuration of bromine and sodium, you get this

Na:
Br: </span></span>

<span><span />So here we the know the valence electrons for each;</span>

<span><span>Na:  (2e)
Br:  (7e, you don't count for the d orbitals)

Then, once you know this, you can deduce how many bonds each can do and you discover that bromine can do one bond since he has one electron missing in his p orbital, but that weirdly, since the s orbital of sodium is full and thus, should not make any bond.

However, it is possible for sodium to come in an excited state in wich he will have sent one of its electrons on an higher shell to have this valence configuration:</span></span>

<span><span /></span><span><span>

</span>where here now it has two lonely valence electrons, one on the s and the other on the p, so that it can do a total of two bonds.</span><span>That's why bromine and sodium can form </span>

Calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. express the nu
bagirrra123 [75]
<span>To calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. We will simply inspect the "number" of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms available per one mole of the compound. Here we have Al2(SO4)3, which means that for every mole of aluminum sulfate, there are 2 moles of aluminum, 3 (1 times 3) moles of sulfur, and 12 (4x3) moles of oxygen. Since we have four moles of Al2(SO4)3 given, we simply multiply 4 times the moles present per 1 mole of the compound. So we have 4x2 = 8 moles of Al, 4x3 = 12 moles of sulfur, and 4x12 = 48 moles of oxygen.

So the answer is:
8,12,48

A man weighing 75 kg takes 5 minutes to reach a height of 5 m when he climbs a staircase. What is his power?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: B. 12.25 W

please give brainliest!

Explanation:

1) Force = Weight = 75 x 9.8 = 735 N

2.)Work = Force x Height = 735 x 5 = 3675 J

3.)Power = Work / Time = 3675 / (5 x 60) = 12.25 W
