An unknown triprotic acid (H3A) is titrated with NaOH. After the titration Ka1 is determined to be 0.0053 and Ka2 is determined

to be 1.5e-07. The pH at the second equivalence point of the titration is measured as 8.469. What is Ka3 for this triprotic acid?

Answer:

Ka3 for the triprotic acid is 7.69*10^-11

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Ka1 = 0.0053

Ka2 = 1.5 * 10^-7

pH at the second equivalence point = 8.469

Step 2: Calculate Ka3

pKa = -log (Ka2) = 6.824

The pH at the second equivalence point (8.469) will be the average of pKa2  and pKa3. So,

8.469 = (6.824 + pKa3) / 2

pKa3 = 10.114

Ka3 = 10^-10.114 = 7.69*10^-11

Ka3 for the triprotic acid is 7.69*10^-11

Glucose and hexanoic acid each contain six carbon atoms, but they have completely different properties. Glucose is a nutrient fo
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Functional groups.

Explanation:

Functional groups are the specific substituents present within the molecules which are responsible for characteristic chemical properties the molecule shows.

Glucose contains alcohol and aldehyde group while hexanoic acid contains carboxylic acid group. <u>The presence different types of the functional groups in both the compounds results in the difference in the properties of both the compounds.</u>

What units do chemists normally use for density of liquids, solids and gas? Explain the
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

We can define density as per unit volume. The SI unit to measure the density of solid, liquid and gas is kilogram per cubic metre (kg/m3) and in the centimeter–gram–second system of units (cgs unit) is gram per cubic centimeter (g/cm3).

Consider the molecule 1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane. These two groups can be cis or trans. Which arrangement is more stable
Art [367]

Answer:

<u><em>Cis configuration is more stable</em></u>

Explanation:

Generally the is configuration of cycloalkenes is more thermo-chemically stable than the trans-configuration  double bonds, because the latter causes twists in the ring, resulting in higher strain.

This also mean that there is a greater force of repulsion between cis molecules (little r no twists).

I hope you find this explanation was clear and helpful.
