The ph of a 0.175 m aqueous solution of a weak acid is 3.52. what is ka for this acid?

Hey there!

pH = - log [ H⁺  ] = 3.52

[ H⁺ ] = 10^-pH

[ H⁺] = 10^ ( -3.52 )

[H⁺] = 3.02*10⁻⁴ M

[HA] =0.175 M

Therefore:

Ka = [ H⁺]* [A⁻] / [ HA]

Ka =  (3.02*10⁻⁴)² /  0.175

Ka = 9.1204*10⁻⁸ / 0.175

Ka = 5.2*10⁻⁷


Hope that helps!

What is the entropy change in the environment when 5.0 MJ of energy is transferred thermally from a reservoir at 1000 K to one a
Leni [432]

Answer:

The entropy change in the environment is 3.62x10²⁶.

Explanation:

The entropy change can be calculated using the following equation:

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{k_{B}}(\frac{1}{T_{f}} - \frac{1}{T_{i}})

Where:

Q: is the energy transferred = 5.0 MJ

k_{B}: is the Boltzmann constant = 1.38x10⁻²³ J/K  

T_{i}: is the initial temperature = 1000 K

T_{f}: is the final temperature = 500 K

Hence, the entropy change is:

\Delta S = \frac{5.0 \cdot 10^{6} J}{1.38 \cdot 10^{-23} J/K}(\frac{1}{500 K} - \frac{1}{1000 K}) = 3.62 \cdot 10^{26}                                    

Therefore, the entropy change in the environment is 3.62x10²⁶.

I hope it helps you!

How many water molecules (H2O) can be produced from 6 molecules of hydrogen gas (white) reacting with 6 molecules of oxygen gas
Vladimir79 [104]
I think you can only have 3 water molecules because you need 2 hydrogen molecules in every water molecule and you have 6 hydrogen molecules so 6/2=3 and the reactant that is limited would be hydrogen since it limits the amount of water molecules you can have

Explain how Bohr's model built on the ideas of Einstein and Planck.
AlekseyPX

Explanation:

Bohr built on Nicholson's idea by adopting the requirement that the angular momentum can have only certain discrete values related to Planck's constant. However Bohr's atom has many orbits for the electrons.
