"NH4+ <----> NH3 + H+  

The constant of this equilibrium is: K = Kw / Kb = 1 x 10^-14 / 1.8 x 10^-5 =5.56 x 10^-10  

5.56 x 10^-10 = x^2 / 0.20-x  

x = [H+] =1.1 x 10^-5 M  

pH = 5.0"

Answer:

5.0

Explanation:

NH₄Cl is a strong electrolyte that ionizes according to the following equation.

NH₄Cl(aq) → NH₄⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

NH₄⁺ is a weak acid according to the following equation.

NH₄⁺(aq) ⇄ NH₃(aq) + H⁺(aq)

Given Kb for NH₃, we can calculate the Ka for NH₄⁺.

Ka. Kb = Kw

Ka = Kw / Kb = 10⁻¹⁴/1.8 × 10⁻⁵ = 5.6 × 10⁻¹⁰

For a weak acid, we can find [H⁺] using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka) = √(0.20 × 5.6 × 10⁻¹⁰) = 1.1 × 10⁻⁵ M

where,

Ca: concentration of the acid

The pH is

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 1.1 × 10⁻⁵ = 5.0

Determine the root-mean square speed of CO2 molecules that have an average kinetic energy of 4.2 x10-21 J per molecule.
strojnjashka [21]
<span>Determine the root-mean-square sped of CO2 molecules that have an average Kinetic Energy of 4.21x10^-21 J per molecule. Write your answer to 3 sig figs.
</span><span>
E = 1/2 m v^2 

If you substitute into this formula, you will get out the root-mean-square speed. 

If energy is Joules, the mass should be in kg, and the speed will be in m/s. 

1 mol of CO2 is 44.0 g, or 4.40 x 10^1 g or 4.40 x 10^-2 kg. 

If you divide this by Avagadro's constant, you will get the average mass of a CO2 molecule. 

4.40 x 10^-2 kg / 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.31 x 10^-26 kg 

So, if E = 1/2 mv^2 

</span>v^2 = 2E/m = 2 (4.21x10^-21 J)/7.31 x 10^-26 kg = 115184.68 
Take the square root of that, and you get the answer 339 m/s.

<h3>What are hydrophilic substances?</h3>

The term hydrophilic substances is used to describe the substances that could dissolve in water. They are those substances that are water soluble. Somehow, the substances must be polar because in chemistry like dissolves like.

The hydrophobic substances are those substances that do not dissolve in water. They are nonpolar and interact with other nonpolar substances.
