The acid dissociation constant is defined as Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] where [H+], [A-] and [HA] are the concentrations of protons, conjugate base, and acid in solution respectively. Assuming this is a weak acid as the pH is quite high for a 1.35 M solution, we can assume that the change in [HA] is negligible and therefore [HA] = 1.35 M.
To calculate [H+] we can use the relationship pH = -log[H+], rearranging to give: [H+] = 10^(-pH) = 10^(-2.93) = 1.17 x 10^(-3).
Since the acid is relatively concentrated we can assume therefore that [H+] = [A-] as for each proton dissociated, a conjugate base is formed.
Therefore, we can calculate Ka as:
Ka = [H+]^2/[HA] = (1.17 x 10^-3 M)^2/1.35 = 1.01 x 10^-6 M
Answers and Explanations:
Physical properties are characteristics of substances that can be seen without a change in its chemical composition.
Here, physical properties are:
- density
- color
- luster
- taste
- abundance
- source
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "source", but I'm going to assume you mean the substance's origin found in nature.
Answer:
5 point) Chemists used systems and order because they study the basic unit of all forms of matter, which is the atom . However, there are several different kinds of atoms, called elements . Chemists organize these elements using the periodic table .
