Let the acid be HA.
The chemical formula for this acid will be the following:

HA \rightleftharpoons  H^{+}+A^{-}

The formula for the <span>acid dissociation constant will be the following:

</span>K_a= \dfrac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}
<span>
We know [H+]=0.0001 (it's given).
However, we must find [A-] and [HA] in order to solve for the constant.

We find that [A-]=[H+] by using a electroneutrality equation.
Also, we can create a concentration equation to find [HA].

</span>0.5M=[A^-]+[HA]
[HA]=0.5M-[A^-]
<span>
Now, we can find the acid dissociation constant.

</span>K_a= \dfrac{[H^+][A^-]}{0.5M-[A^-]}

= \dfrac{0.0001*0.0001}{0.5-0.0001} = 2.0*10^{-8}

If an atom has 35 protons in the nucleus, how many will it have orbiting nucleus
yan [13]
It will have 35 ''electrons'' . Basically the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is always equal to the number of electrons but its just that protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged.  <span />

A solution consists of 35.00 g of CuSO4 dissolved in 250.0 mL of water. The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol the molar mass of S
slamgirl [31]

The molarity of a solution that contains 35.00 g of CuSO4 dissolved in 250.0 mL of water is 0.88M.

<h3>How to calculate molarity?</h3>

The molarity of a solution can be calculated using the following formula:

Molarity = no of moles/volume

According to this question, a solution consists of 35.00 g of CuSO4 dissolved in 250.0 mL of water.

no.of moles of CuSO4 = 35g ÷ 159.6g/mol

no. of moles of CuSO4 = 0.22 moles

Therefore; molarity of CuSO4 solution is calculated as follows:

M = 0.22 ÷ 0.25

M = 0.88M

Therefore, the molarity of a solution that contains 35.00 g of CuSO4 dissolved in 250.0 mL of water is 0.88M.

A certain gas at 2oC and 1.00 atm pressure fills a 4.0 container. What volume will the gas occupy at 100oC and 780 torr pressure
artcher [175]

The final volume V₂=4.962 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

T₁=20 + 273 = 293 K

P₁= 1 atm

V₁ = 4 L

T₂=100+273 = 373 K

P₂=780 torr=1,02632 atm

Required

The final volume

Solution

Combined gas law :

P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

Input the value :

V₂=(P₁V₁T₂)/(P₂T₁)

V₂=(1 x 4 x 373)/(1.02632 x 293)

V₂=4.962 L
