Answer:

The degree of dissociation of acetic acid is 0.08448.

The pH of the solution is 3.72.

Explanation:

The pK_a=4.756

The value of the dissociation constant = K_a

pK_a=-\log[K_a]

K_a=10^{-4.756}=1.754\times 10^{-5}

Initial concentration of the acetic acid = [HAc] =c = 0.00225

Degree of dissociation = α

HAc\rightleftharpoons H^++Ac^-

Initially

c

At equilibrium ;

(c-cα)                                cα        cα

The expression of dissociation constant is given as:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][Ac^-]}{[HAc]}

1.754\times 10^{-5}=\frac{c\times \alpha \times c\times \alpha}{(c-c\alpha)}

1.754\times 10^{-5}=\frac{c\alpha ^2}{(1-\alpha)}

1.754\times 10^{-5}=\frac{0.00225 \alpha ^2}{(1-\alpha)}

Solving for α:

α = 0.08448

The degree of dissociation of acetic acid is 0.08448.

[H^+]=c\alpha = 0.00225M\times 0.08448=0.0001901 M

The pH of the solution ;

pH=-\log[H^+]

=-\log[0.0001901 M]=3.72

olya-2409 [2.1K]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The pair of elements that is most likely to chemically combine and form ionic bonds would be <span>lithium and chlorine. Lithium is metal and chlorine is nonmetal which as a compound forms ionic bonds. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Colloid

Explanation:

A lotion of this type is a typical colloid mixture.

  • A colloid is a homogeneous mixtures of two phases.
  • The dispersed phase and the dispersion medium.
  • Water is the dispersion medium and oil is the dispersed phase.

They have the following properties:

  • Liquid dispersed phase and liquid dispersion medium forms an emulsion and a lotion of this type is an example.
  • The particles are larger than those found in solutions.
  • The particles pass through ordinary filter paper.
  • They may be cloudy or clear .
