A 0.175 m weak acid acid solution has ph of 3.25 find ka for the acid

Chemistry

Elenna [48]3 years ago

The acid dissociation constant or Ka is a value used to measure the strength of a specific acid in solution. For a general dissociation of an acid solution,

HA = H+ + A-

we express Ka as follows:

Ka = [H+] [A-] / [HA]

Where the terms represents the concentrations of the acid and the ions. Assuming that the weak acid in the problem is HA, we first calculate for the concentration of H+ from the pH.

pH = - log [H+]
3.25 = - log [H+]
[H+] = 0.0005623 M

By the ICE table, we can calculate the equilibrium concentrations,
        HA      =      H+            +        A-
I      0.175           0                         0
C      -x               +x                      +x
 --------------------------------------------------
E  .174438    0.0005623       0.0005623

Ka = (0.0005623) (0.0005623) / .174438
Ka = 1.81x10^-6

The isomerization reaction, ch3nc → ch3cn, is first order and the rate constant is equal to 0.46 s-1 at 600 k. what is the conce
Harlamova29_29 [7]
According to this formula :
㏑[A] /[Ao] = - Kt 
when we have Ao = 0.3 m 
and K =0.46 s^-1
t = 20min = 0.2 x 60 =12 s
So by substitution :
㏑[A] / 0.3 = - 0.46 * 12
㏑[A] / 0.3 = - 5.52
by taking e^x for both side of the equation we can get [A]
∴[A] = 0.0012 mol dm^-3

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

D. Surface tension.

Explanation:

Surface tension is defined as the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a unit amount.

The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules:

A molecule in a liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions while molecules at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.
