Formic acid (HCO2H, Ka = 1.8 × 10-4) is the principal component in the venom of stinging ants. What is the molarity of a formic

acid solution if 25.00 mL of the formic acid solution requires 39.80 mL of 0.0567 M NaOH to reach the equivalence point?

Answer : The molarity of a formic acid solution is, 0.0903 M

Explanation :

To calculate the molarity of formic acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of formic acid which is $CH_3COOH$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of sodium hydroxide base which is NaOH.

As we are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=?\\V_1=25.00ml\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.0567M\\V_2=39.80ml$

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$1\times M_1\times 25.0ml=1\times 0.0567M\times 39.80ml\\\\M_1=0.0903M$

Hence, the molarity of a formic acid solution is, 0.0903 M

Calculate the mass, in grams, of a single tellurium atom (mte = 127.60 amu ).

UNO [17]

1 Atomic mass unit is the mass of an atom or it caliberates mass on atomic scale. It is also expressed in dalton denoted by Da whereas Atomic mass unit is denoted by amu.

1 amu can be expressed in grams as follows:

$1 amu = 1.6 * 10^-2^4 g$

$Mass of Te = 127.6 amu$

For converting in grams,

$M = (127.6 ) * 1.6 * 10^-2^4 g$

$M = 204.16 * 10^-2^4 g$

Thus, mass of Te is 204.16 * 10^-2^4 g

A car traveling at a speed of 30.0 m/s encounters an emergency and comes to a complete stop in 7.5 seconds? What is the cars acc

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The acceleration is: $4m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

$u = 30.0m/s$ --- The initial velocity

$t = 7.5s$ --- time

$v = 0m/s$ -- The final velocity

Required

Determine the acceleration

To do this, we make use of the first equation of motion

$v = u - at$

We used negative because the car was coming to stop.

This gives:

$0 = 30 - 7.5 * a$

$0 = 30 - 7.5a$

Collect like terms

$7.5a = 30$

Solve for a

$a = \frac{30}{7.5}$

$a = 4m/s^2$

A gas has a volume of 62.65L at O degrees Celsius and 1 atm. At what temperature in Celsius would the volume of the gas be 78.31

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The volume of the gas will be 78.31 L at 1.7 °C.

Explanation:

We can find the temperature of the gas by the ideal gas law equation:

$PV = nRT$

Where:

n: is the number of moles

V: is the volume

T: is the temperature

R: is the gas constant = 0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)

From the initial we can find the number of moles:

$n = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}} = \frac{1 atm*62.65 L}{(0.082 L*atm/K*mol)*(0 + 273)K} = 2.80 moles$

Now, we can find the temperature with the final conditions:

$T_{2} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{nR} = \frac{612.0 mmHg*\frac{1 atm}{760 mmHg}*78.31 L}{2.80 moles*0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)} = 274.7 K$

The temperature in Celsius is:

$T_{2} = 274.7 - 273 = 1.7 ^{\circ} C$

Therefore, the volume of the gas will be 78.31 L at 1.7 °C.

I hope it helps you!
