Initial [ HCO2H] = moles * volume 
                           =0.35 moles * 1 L = 0.35 M

by using ICE table:

              HCO2H ↔ H+  + HCO2-
initial      0.35 M        0          0
change  - X             +X          +X
Equ       (0.35 - X)       X          X

∴ Ka = [H+][HCO2-] / [HCO2H]

by substitution:

1.8 x 10^-4 =  X^2 / (0.35-X) by solving for X

∴ X = 0.0079 or 7.9 x 10^-3

∴ [H+] = X = 7.9 x 10^-3 M

A sample of polonium-210 has an initial mass of 321 milligrams (mg). If the half-life of polonium-210 is 138 days, how many mg o
raketka [301]

Hey there!

A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will have decayed after that time.

An equation for exponential decay is the following:

y = a(1 - b)ⁿ

Where a is the original amount, b is the rate of decay, and n is time.

1000 is about 0.3 of a half life, 1000 divided by 138 days (3312 hours) is approximately 0.3.

Let's plug in values to that equation:

y = 321(1 - 0.5)^(0.3)

Simplify.

y = 260.73

There will be 260.73mg of polonium-210 remaining after 1000 hours.

Hope this helps!

Given the following values of pKa, determine which is the weakest base of the answers listed. Acid pKa HClO2 1.95 HClO 7.54 HCOO
professor190 [17]

Answer:

HClO 7.54

Explanation:

Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a weakest acid because the pKa value of Hypochlorous acid is very high among the options given in the activity. pKa is a method which is used in order to identify the strength of an acid. The higher the value of pKa of a liquid, lower the strength of an acid while lower the value of pKa of chemical, higher the strength of an acid. In the options, HClO2  is a strong acid due to high lower pKa value.

At what temperature does a gas at 1.00 atm and 20 degree Celsius have a pressure of 4.00 atm.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

P1 =4 atm

T1= 20°C

P2=1 atm

T2=?

According to Gay-Lussac's Law or Third Gas Law,

P1T2=P2T1

4×T2=1×20

T2= 20/4

T2= 5°C

Answer At 5°C temperature does a gas at 1.00 atm !
