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

How many grams of Sg is required to produce 83.10 g SF6? S: +24F-->8SF
ozzi

Answer : The mass of S_8 required is 18.238 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of SF_6 = 83.10 g

Molar mass of SF_6 = 146 g/mole

Molar mass of S_8 = 256.52 g/mole

The balanced chemical reaction is,

S_8+24F_2\rightarrow 8SF_6

First we have to determine the moles of SF_6.

\text{Moles of }SF_6=\frac{\text{Mass of }SF_6}{\text{Molar mass of }SF_6}=\frac{83.10g}{146g/mole}=0.569moles

Now we have to determine the moles of S_8.

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 8 moles of SF_6 produced from 1 mole of S_8

So, 0.569 moles of SF_6 produced from \frac{0.569}{8}=0.0711 mole of S_8

Now we have to determine the mass of S_8.

\text{Mass of }S_8=\text{Moles of }S_8\times \text{Molar mass of }S_8

\text{Mass of }S_8=(0.0711mole)\times (256.52g/mole)=18.238g

Therefore, the mass of S_8 required is 18.238 grams.

Calculate the amount of water required to prepare 500g of 2.5% solution of sugar.
Snowcat [4.5K]

(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:

mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass

mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g  

Then now we can calculate the amount of water:

solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water

mass of water =  solution mass - mass of sugar

mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g

(ii) We use the following reasoning:

If       500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar

Then    X g solution contains 75 g sugar

X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution

Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):

Density = mass / volume

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution
