M(C2H2O)= 12.0*2 +1.0*2 +16.0 = 42 g/mol is a molar mass for empirical formula.

120.6g/mol/42g/mol ≈ 3

So, empirical formula should be increased 3 times,

and molecular formula is C6H6O3.

Answer is D.

If you heat the cup of soup in the microwave to make it boil. Will it have a higher total kinetic energy than the bowl of soup?

Paha777 [63]

No, The kinetic energy depends upon the number of particles motion. The hot bowl of soup will have greater number of particles in motion and it will contain more kinetic energy than the cup of soup.

Calculate the ph of a solution formed by mixing 200.0 ml of 0.30 m hclo with 300.0 ml of 0.20 m kclo. the ka for hclo is 2.9 × 1

masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pH of the solution will be 7.53.

Explanation:

Dissociation constant of KClO= $K_a=2.8\times 10^{-8}$

Concentration of acid in 1 l= 0.30 M

Then in 200 ml = $0.30 M\times 0.200 L=0.06 M$

The concentration of acid, HClO=[acid]= 0.006 M

Concentration of salt in 1 L = 0.20 M

Then in 300 ml = $0.20 M\times 0.300 L=0.06 M$

The concentration of acid, KClO=[salt]= 0.006 M

The pH of the solution will be given by formula :

$pH=pK_{a}^o+\log\frac{[salt]}{[acid]}$

$pH=-\log[2.8\times 10^{-8}]+\frac{[0.06 M]}{[0.06 M]}$

The pH of the solution will be 7.53.
