Answer:

2.94

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>A solution is prepared at 25 °C that is initially 0.38 M in chloroacetic acid (HCH₂ClCO₂), a weak acid with Ka= 1.3 x 10⁻³, and 0.44 M in sodium chloroacetate (NaCH₂CICO₂). Calculate the pH of the solution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.</em>

<em />

We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HCH₂ClCO₂) and its conjugate base (CH₂CICO₂⁻ coming from NaCH₂CICO₂). We can calculate the pH using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.

pH = pKa + log [CH₂CICO₂⁻]/[HCH₂ClCO₂]

pH = -log 1.3 x 10⁻³ + log (0.44 M/0.38 M)

pH = 2.94

Complete combustion of a 17.12mg sample of xylene In oxygen yielded 56.77mg
Veronika [31]

Xylene moles =\frac{17.12}{106.16×1000}=0.00016moles=

106.16×1000

17.12

=0.00016moles

Moles of CO_2 =\frac{56.77}{44.01×1000}=0.0013CO

2

=

44.01×1000

56.77

=0.0013

Moles of H_2O= =\frac{14.53}{18.02×1000}=0.0008H

2

O==

18.02×1000

14.53

=0.0008

Moles ratios

\frac{0.0013}{0.0008}=1.625

0.0008

0.0013

=1.625

\frac{0.0008}{0.0008}=1

0.0008

0.0008

=1

How does evolution work
sergey [27]
Billions of years ago, according to the theory of evolution, chemicals randomly organized themselves into a self-replicating molecule. This spark of life was the seed of every living thing we see today (as well as those we no longer see, like dinosaurs). That simplest life form, through the processes of mutation and natural selection, has been shaped into every living species on the planet.
