Answer:

HCN~~Ka=4.9x10^-^1^0

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember the <u>relationship between the Ka value and the pH</u>. We can use the general reaction for any acid with his Ka value expression:

HA~->~H^+~+~A^-    Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

In the Ka expression, we have a<u> proportional relationship</u> between Ka and the concentration of H^+. Therefore, if we have a higher Ka value we will have a smaller pH (lets keep in mind that with a higher

So, if we have to find the higher pH value we need to search the <u>smaller Ka value</u> in this case HCN~~Ka=4.9x10^-^1^0.

I hope helps!

The equilibrium for the indicator methyl orange is HC14H14SO3(red) + H2O C14H14SO3−(yellow) + H3O+ The reaction is exothermic.
muminat

Answer:

The solution will turn red.  

Explanation:

HC₁₄H₁₄SO₃ + H₂O ⇌ HC₁₄H₁₄SO₃⁻ +H₃O⁺

     (red)                           (yellow)

Methyl orange is a weak acid in which the ionized and unionized forms are distinct colours and are in equilibrium with each other,

At about pH 3.4,  the two the forms are present in equal amounts, and the indicator colour is orange.

If you add more acid, you are disturbing the equilibrium.

According to Le Châtelier's Principle, when you apply a stress to a system at equilibrium, it will respond in such a way as to relieve the stress.

The system will try to get rid of the added acid, so the position of equilibrium will move to the left.

More of the unionized molecules will form, so the solution will turn red.

Electrolytic cells use electricity to cause a nonspontaneous redox reaction to occur. An electrolytic cell is constructed using
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

At anode - {Br_2}_{(l)}

At cathode - {H_2}_{(g)}

Explanation:

Electrolysis of NaBr:

Water will exist as:

H_2O\rightleftharpoons H^++OH^-

The salt, NaBr will dissociate as:

NaBr\rightarrow Na^++Br^-

At the anode, oxidation takes place, as shown below.

{Br^-}_{(aq)}\rightarrow {Br_2}_{(l)}+2e^-

At the cathode, reduction takes place, as shown below.

2{H^+}_{(aq)}+2e^-\rightarrow {H_2}_{(g)}

Describe the temperature changes that occur in ice as energy is added, starting in the frozen state and ending in the vapor stat
Ket [755]

Explanation:

When water is frozen then it is known as ice and its state is solid. So, its molecules will be held closer to each other as they are held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction.

As a result, its temperature will be minimum as its molecules have least kinetic energy.

It is known that kinetic energy of a substance is directly proportional to temperature.

As,            K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where            K.E = kinetic energy

                       T = temperature

                       k = boltzmann constant

When solid changes into liquid state then it means molecules of a substance has gained kinetic energy due to which there occurs more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature of substance also increases.

Whereas when liquid state of a substance changes intro vapor state then it means that more kinetic energy has gained by the molecules due to which there will be much more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature will be maximum in vapor state.

The burning of a sample of propane
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

70.0°C

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount of heat generated by propane as 104.6 kJ or 104600 Joules
  • Mass of water is 500 g
  • Initial temperature as 20.0 ° C

We are required to determine the final temperature of water;

Taking the initial temperature is x°C

We know that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C

Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat × change in temperature

In this case;

Change in temp =(x-20)° C

Therefore;

104600 J = 500 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (x-20)

104600 J = 2090x -41800

146400 = 2090 x

  x = 70.0479

     =70.0 °C

Thus, the final temperature of water is 70.0°C
