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

One way to ensure that scientific claims are valid is to analyze who is presenting the information: only trust information prese
Marina86 [1]

False

Explanation:

The best way to ensure scientific claims are valid is to subject them to various tests. Scientific claims has nothing to do with the body presenting them. Claims are authenticated following due scientific process.

  • Scientific method provides a way of ascertaining the validity of an assumption.
  • If the claims is not supported by the body of evidence obtained, then the claim has to be modified or refuted.
  • When the claim is consistent with various infallible proof from different sources, then it can be accepted.

A gas with a pressure of 2.25 atm occupies 450.0 mL at a temperature of 300 K. What is the volume at 405.0 K?
Aneli [31]

The volume of the gas at a temperature of 405.0 K would be 607.5 mL. Making option D the right answer to the question.

What is the volume of the gas?

To find the volume of the gas, the equation to be used would have to be combine gas law.

Combine gas law as the name suggest uses the combination of Charles law which measures Volume against temperature, and Gay-Lussac's law which measures Pressure/Temperature, and Boyle's law  which measures pressure X volume where k is constant.

Using the combine law to find the volume, we have:

P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

Where P₁ = initial pressure

           V₁ = initial volume

             T₁ = initial temperature

            P₂ = final  pressure

            V₂ = final  volume

            T₂ = final  temperature

P₁ = 2.25atm

V₁ = 450.0 mL

T₁ = 300 K

T₂ = 405.0 K

V₂ = ?

D) 607.5 mL

= [2.25(450)]÷300=[2.25(V₂]÷405

Making  V₂ the subject

 3.375=2.25 V₂ ÷ 405

V₂ = 3.375 x 405 ÷ 2.25

V₂ = 607.5 mL

In summary, a gas with an initial pressure of 2.25atm, an initial pressure of 450.0 mL and an initial temperature of 300 K would have a final volume of 607.5 mL if the temperature is increased to  405.0 K.

Four different objects are placed on a number line at 0. The chart describes the motion of each object. Using the information in
mote1985 [20]

The chart with the information to answer this question may be found in other Brainly's link, so I attach it now.

Answer:

  • Z

Explanation:

To facilitate the accompaniment of the reasoning, I copy the data here:

Object     Motion

  X           3 units left, 3 units right

  Y           6 units right, 18 units right

  W          8 units left, 24 units right

  Z          16 units right, 8 units left

The <em>distance</em> is the scalar magnitude that indicates the total length of the path traveled.

The <em>displacement</em> is the vector that indicates how far the end point and the initial point are.

In order to calculate the distance, the displacement and the ratio r = distance/displacement, to check which object has a distance that is three times as great as its displacement, i.e. r = 3, we use this new chart:

Object    Motion                                    Distance     Displacement  ratio

  X          3 units left, 3 units right        3 + 3 = 6       3 - 3 = 0            ∞

  Y          6 units right, 18 units right    6 + 18 = 24    6 + 18 = 24       1

  W         8 units left, 24 units right      8 + 24 = 32   -8 + 24 = 16     2

  Z          16 units right, 8 units left       16 + 8 = 24    16 - 8 = 8         3

The ratios were calculated dividing the distance by the displacement: distance / displacement.

For the object Z, that was 24 / 8 = 3. Thus, the object that has a distance that is three times as great as its displacement is the object Z.

Consider the reaction 2 al + Fe2O3 to 2Fe + Al2O3. If 60.0g of Al is reacted with excess Fe2O3, determine the amount (in moles)
olganol [36]

 The  amount  of  Al2O3  in moles=  1.11 moles    while in  grams   = 113.22 grams


    <em><u>calculation</u></em>

     2 Al  + Fe2O3 → 2Fe  + Al2O3

    step  1: find the moles of Al  by  use of <u><em>moles= mass/molar  mass  </em></u>formula

    =  60.0/27= 2.22  moles


    Step 2: use the mole ratio to determine the  moles of Al2O3.

 The  mole ratio  of Al : Al2O3 is  2: 1 therefore the moles of Al2O3= 2.22/2=1.11  moles


Step 3:    finds the mass  of  Al2O3  by us of  <u><em>mass= moles x molar mass</em></u><em> </em>formula.

The molar  mass of Al2O3  =  (2x27)  +( 16 x3) = 102  g/mol

mass is therefore=  102  g/mol  x 1.11= 113.22 grams
