Answer:

the weakest acid is B) HIO

Explanation:

pKa = - log Ka

the higher the value of pKa, the lower the dissociation, therefore, an acid will be stronger the lower its pKa.

a) HC2H3O2; Ka = 1.8 E-5

⇒ pKa1 = - Log (1.8 E-5) = 4.745

b) HIO;  Ka = 23 E-11

⇒ pKa2 = - Log ( 23 E-11 ) = 9.638

c) HBrO;  Ka = 23 E-9

⇒ pKa3 = - Log ( 23 E-9 ) = 7.638

d) HClO;  Ka = 2.9 E-8

⇒ pKa4 = - Log ( 2.9 E-8 ) = 7.537

e) HCO2H; Ka = 63 E-5

⇒ pKa5 = - Log ( 63 E-5 ) = 3.200

from the values pKa, we places the acids from the weakest to the least weak:

1) pKa2; HIO (weakest)

2) pKa3

3) pKa4

4) pKa1

5) pKa5

For the reaction ? C6H6 + ? O2 → ? CO2 + ? H2O 42.5 grams of C6H6 are allowed to react with 113.1 grams of O2. How much CO2 will
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

There will be 143,67g CO2 produced

Explanation:

2 C6H6 + 15 O2 → 12 CO2 + 6 H2O

(42,5 g C6H6) / (78.1124 g C6H6/mol) = 0.54408775 mole C6H6

(113.1 g O2) / (31.9989 g O2/mol) = 3.534496 moles O2

0.54408775 mole of C6H6 would react completely with 0.54408775 x (15/2) = 4.080658 mole O2, but there is more O2 present than that, so O2 is in excess and C6H6 is the limiting reactant.

(0.54408775 mol C6H6) x (12/2) x (44.0096 g/mol) = 143.67 g CO2

According to Le Châtelier's principle, how would a change in pressure affect a
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Le Châtelier's principle states that when a chemical system at equilibrium is distributed by a change in  conditions, the equilibrium position will shift in a direction that tends to counteract  the change.

Therefore, when there is a change in pressure, the equilibrium will  counteract  the change by reducing/increasing the pressure through adjusting the no. of moles of gas.

Note: At constant temperature and volume the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas.

For example, when there's an increase in total pressure, the equilibrium position will shift to the side with a smaller no. of moles of gas so as to reduce the pressure.

Caleb is an inventor who has designed a new kind of fishing net. He is looking for a strong, flexible material that can be used
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

c. Polystyrene

Explanation:

Caleb wants a synthetic material that is not soluble in water, so it must be a nonpolar material because water is polar.

Cellulose is a nonpolar molecular, but is a natural product;

Nylon is a synthetic compound, but is polar, so it' soluble in water;

Vulcanized rubber is polar and the rubber is a natural compound.

The only compound that he can use is polystyrene, which is insoluble in water and is a synthetic material.
