The Weak Ionization constant (Ka) for HCOOH is equal to: Please help me lol

Chemistry

iris [78.8K]3 years ago

Answer:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the weak ionization reaction for formic acid is:

HCOOH(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq)+HCOO^-(aq)

In such a way, we simply recall the law of mass action in order to represent the weak ionization constant, Ka, for such process, by taking into account that the concentration of products is divided over the concentration of reactants as shown below:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}

Best regards.

Answer:

Ka=\frac{[CH_3COO^-][H^+]}{[CH_3COOH]}

Explanation:

In this case we have to start with the <u>ionization reaction</u> of CH_3COOH, so:

CH_3COOH~~CH_3COO^-~+~H^+

With this in mind we can calculate the <u>mathematical expression of Ka</u> (The production of hydronium ions H^+), so:

Ka=\frac{[CH_3COO^-][H^+]}{[CH_3COOH]}

I hope it helps!

A 2. 75-l container filled with co2 gas at 25°c and 225 kpa pressure springs a leak. When the container is re-sealed, the pressu
Serjik [45]

The number of moles of gas lost is  0.0213 mol. It can be solved with the help of Ideal gas law.

<h3>What is Ideal law ?</h3>

According to this law, "the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the number on moles of gas, directly proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e.

PV = nRT.

Where,

  • p = pressure
  • V = volume (1.75 L = 1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)
  • T =  absolute temperature
  • n = number of moles
  • R =  gas constant, 8.314 J*(mol-K)

Therefore, the number of moles is

n = PV / RT

State 1 :

  • T₁ = (25⁰ C = 25+273 = 298 K)
  • p₁ = 225 kPa = 225 x 10³ N/m²

State 2 :

  • T₂ = 10 C = 283 K
  • p₂ = 185 kPa = 185 x 10³ N/m²

The loss in moles of gas from state 1 to state 2 is

Δn = V/R (P₁/T₁ - P₂/T₂ )

V/R = (1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)/(8.314 (N-m)/(mol-K) = 2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N

p₁/T₁ = (225 x 10³)/298 = 755.0336 N/(m²-K)

p₂/T₂ = (185 x 10³)/283 = 653.7102 N/(m²-K)

Therefore,

Δn = (2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N)*(755.0336 - 653.7102 N/(m²-K))

    = 0.0213 mol

Hence, The number of moles of gas lost is 0.0213 mol.
