Determine the pH of 0.050 M HCN solution. HCN is a weak acid with a Ka equal to 4.9 x 10-10<br> DONE
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 5.31.

Explanation:

Let "\alpha is the dissociation of weak acid - HCN.

The dissociation reaction of HCN is as follows.

                  HCN+H_{2}O\rightarrow H_{3}O^{+}+CN^{-}

Initial                  C                         0            0

Equilibrium        c(1- \alpha)              c\alpha c\alpha

Dissociation constant = Ka= c\alpha \times \frac{c\alpha}{c(1-\alpha)}

=\frac{c\alpha^{2}}{(1-\alpha)}

In this case weak acids \alpha is very small so, (1-\alpha ) is taken as 1.

Ka=C\alpha^{2}

\alpha=\sqrt\frac{ka}{c}

From the given the concentration = 0.050 M

Substitute the given value.

\alpha=\sqrt\frac{4.9\times 10^{-10}}{0.05}=9.8\times 10^{-4}

[H_{3}O^{+}]=c\alpha

[H_{3}O^{+}]=0.05\times 9.8\times 10^{-4}= 4.9\times10^{-6}

pH= -log[H_{3}O^{+}]

=-log[4.9\times10^{-6}]

=6-log 4.9= 5.31

Therefore, The pH of the solution is 5.31.

1 mole of nacl(s) has a greater entropy than 1 mole of nacl(aq). true or false g
Svetradugi [14.3K]
It  is  false   that  1  mole  of  nacl(s)  has  a  greater  entropy  than   1  mole  of  nacl (aq).  

  this  is  because    nacl(aq)   is  in  aqueous  state  while  nacl(s)  is  in  solid  state.  Nacl(aq)  has  greater  entropy  than  nacl(s)  because    in 
aqueous   state  their   is  increase  in  entropy. the  entropy   of  the  two  ions  in  water  has   greater  entropy  than  the  solid   nacl.

What is dissociation constant? ​
iragen [17]

In Chemistry, the dissociation constant describes a dissociation reaction in which a compound is broken up. It measures how likely the reaction will occur. For example for reaction  AB -> A + B, the dissociation constant is equal to concentration  of A x concentration of B / concentration of AB at equilibrium.
