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

Chemistry

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!

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "C) The reaction is spontaneous at high temperatures." 
Since dH is positive and dS ~ 0 then -TdS ~ 0, meaning dG will always be greater than 0 so t<span>he reaction is spontaneous at high temperatures.</span>

Please help me balance:<br>_NaNO3 + _PbO_ ➡️ Pb(NO3)2 + _Na2O
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The balanced reaction is given by,

2NaN(O)3 + PbO ⇒ Pb(NO3)2 + Na2O

Explanation:

The reaction is as given.

Lets count the number of each elements in the reaction.

<em>In reactant side, number of sodium atoms are 1 , lead are 1, nitrogen are 1 and oxygen are 4.</em>

<em>in product side, number of sodium atoms are 2 , lead are 1 , nitrogen are 2 and oxygen are 7.</em>

<em>So we need to balance sodium and oxygen atoms in the reaction.</em>

<em>There is deficient of sodium and oxygen atoms on reactant side</em>.

Thus, multiply (NaNO3) by 2.

<em>Thus, sodium atoms become 2 , nitrogen 2 and oxygen 6. Total 7 oxygen atoms.</em>

Thus, the balanced reaction is,

2NaN(O)3 + PbO ⇒ Pb(NO3)2 + Na2O

Which part of an investigation is only found in an experimental investigation?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is control group.

Explanation:

A group used in a study or in an experiment, which does not get treatment by the scientists and is used as a foundation to determine the functions of the other tested subjects is known as the control group. The control group is only found in an experimental investigation.  

The group in an experiment, which gets the variable being examined is known as an experimental group. The comparison of an experimental group is done with a control group in order to find the answers in an experiment.
