A buffer solution is made using a weak acid, HA. If the pH of the buffer is 9 and the ratio of A– to HA is 100, what is the pKa

of HA?

To calculate the pKa of the weak acid, we use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. It is expressed as pH = pKa - log [HA]/[A-]. This equation takes into account the concentration of the substance that does not dissociates into ions since it is a weak acid. We caculate as follows:

pH = pKa - log [HA]/[A-]
9 = pKa - log 1/100
pKa = 7

The reaction of nitrogen dioxide with fluorine
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1

Explanation:

2 NO2 + F2 --> 2 NO2F

The reaction is first order with respect to NO2 and also first order with respect to F2.

The rate law is given as;

Rate = k [NO2] [ F2]

k = 1.58E-4 M-1s-1

[NO2] = 2.84 M

[F2] = 3.60 M

Rate = ?

Inserting the values into the equation, we have;

Rate = 1.58E-4 * 2.84 * 3.60

Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1

Consider n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) →→ 2nh3 (g). what is the mass of nitrogen gas required to react with 0.129 g h2?
Flura [38]
The given chemical reaction given above is already balanced such that the number of atoms in the left hand side of the equation is equal to that of the right hand side. Using the dimensional analysis, proper conversion factors and the molar masses,

                    mass of nitrogen = (0.129 g H₂)(1 mol H₂/2 g H₂)(1 mol N₂/3 mol H₂)(28 g N₂/1 mol N₂)
                     mass of nitrogen = 0.602 g N₂

Therefore, 0.602 g of nitrogen will be required for he reaction.

how does an airplane’s kinetic energy and potential energy change as it takes off and lands? How does this energy change relate
mojhsa [17]

Answer: As the airplane goes higher, the mechanical energy is changed into gravitational potential energy. While flying, some energy is lost through drag to thermal (heat) energy and sound energy. Some is also lost as the plane makes the air around it move. ... As speed and height decrease, kinetic and potential energy decrease.

How can you tell if a chemical is a metallic bond?
coldgirl [10]

Answer: In a metallic bond, each metal atom is surrounded by lots of other metal atoms, and they all share their valence electrons. When two oxygen atoms bond, they become a molecule and don't interact much with other molecules.
