Answer:

Ka= [H+][But-]/H[Hbut]

Let k moles of H+ be formed

1.52*10^-5=k^2/0.004-k

K^2=0.004*1.52*10^-5-1.52*10^-5k

K^2- 1.52*10^-5k-6.08*10^-8=0

Solving this quadratic equation.

K=7.6*10^-6

PH=-log(7.6*10^-6)=5.2

Whereas ionic bonds join metals to non-metals, metallic bonding joins a bulk of metal atoms. ... Sodium metal is therefore written as Na, not Na+. ... Both of these factors increase the strength of the bond still further. ... Heat capacity: This is explained by the ability of free electrons to move about the solid.

Imagine an alternate universe where the value of the Planck constant is 6.6207 x 10^-36 J*s.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Louis de Broglie, matter has an associated wavelength. He was the first scientist to establish the idea of wave-particle duality or wave- particle paradox.

The display of wavelike properties by objects in the universe is dependent on the magnitude of the of the mass of the body. Small objects have a large associated wavelength and can be described completely by quantum mechanics.

A buckyball with a mass of 1.2 x 10-21 g, 0.7 nm wide, moving at 38. m/s has a very small mass and significant associated wavelength hence the system can be completely described by quantum mechanics.
