Answer:
pH = 3.49
Explanation:
We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HNO₂) and its conjugate base (NO₂⁻ coming from KNO₂). We can calculate the pH of a buffer ssytem using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.
pH = pKa + log [base] / [acid]
pH = -log Ka + log [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]
pH = -log 4.50 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.290 M / 0.210 M
pH = 3.49
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
ΔQ = m c T ΔQ = heat required(J) m = mass (g) T = C° temp change
c = heat capacity in J/g-C
Answer:
solid
Explanation:
in the solid state the material will has a fixed shape and volume whatever the container that contains it
where in liquid the shape will be different depending on the container
and in gas state the shape and volume are not definite

Now we have 4 pieces of data and want a single result. The data is:
Mass: 100.0 g
Starting temperature: 25.0°C
Ending temperature: 31.5°C
Specific heat: 1.00 cal/(g*°C)
And we want a result with the unit "cal". Now you need to figure out what set of math operations will give you the desired result. Turns out this is quite simple. First, you need to remember that you can only add or subtract things that have the same units. You may multiply or divide data items with different units and the units can combine or cancel each other. So let's solve this:
Let's start with specific heat with the unit "cal/(g*°C)". The cal is what we want, but we'ld like to get rid of the "/(g*°C)" part. So let's multiply by the mass:
1.00 cal/(g*°C) * 100.0 g = 100.0 cal/°C
We now have a simpler unit of "cal/°C", so we're getting closer. Just need to cancel out the "/°C" part, which we can do with a multiplication. But we have 2 pieces of data using "°C". We can't multiply both of them, that would give us "cal*°C" which we don't want. But we need to use both pieces. And since we're interested in the temperature change, let's subtract them. So
31.5°C - 25.0°C = 6.5°C
So we have a 6.5°C change in temperature. Now let's multiply:
6.5°C * 100.0 cal/°C = 6500.0 cal
Since we only have 3 significant digits in our least precise piece of data, we need to round the result to 3 significant figures. 6500 only has 2 significant digits, and 6500. has 4. But we can use scientific notation to express the result as 6.50x10^3 which has the desired 3 digits of significance. So the result is 6.50x10^3 calories.
Just remember to pay attention to the units in the data you have. They will pretty much tell you exactly what to add, subtract, multiply, or divide.</span>
