<span>To determine the pH of the solution given, we make use of the acid equilibrium constant (Ka) given. It is the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of the dissociated ions and the acid. The dissociation reaction of the CH3COOH acid would be as follows:

</span>CH3COOH = CH3COO- + H+<span>

The acid equilibrum constant would be expressed as follows:

Ka = [H+][</span>CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] = 1.8× 10^–5

<span>
To determine the equilibrium concentrations we use the ICE table,
         CH3COOH             H+             </span>CH3COO<span>-
I            1.60                    0                     0
C             -x                    +x                   +x
----------------------------------------------------------------
E         1.60-x                   x                     x 

</span>1.8× 10^–5 =  [H+][CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] <span>
1.8 x 10^-5 = [x][x] / [0.160-x] </span>

Solving for x,

x = 1.69x10^-3 = [H+] = [F-]

pH = -log [H+] = -log [1.69x10^-3] = 2.8

What is the name for the process by which gases spontaneously move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentr
AysviL [449]
The process by which gasses spontaneously move from an are with higher concentration to one of lower concentration is called diffusion. This process mainly occurs in gases and liquids. The end result of diffusion is called dynamic equilibrium. It is a complete mixing of the molecules  of the gas.

2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl3 + 3H2 If the chemical reaction produces 129 grams of AlCl3, how many grams of H2 are also produced?
faust18 [17]

So,

Our conceptual plan is as follows:

g AlCl3 --> mol AlCl3 --> mol H2 --> g H2

\frac{129g\ AlCl_3}{133.4g/mol}\ *\frac{3mol\ H_2}{2mol\ AlCl_3}\ *2.016g/mol \\ \\=2.92 g\ H_2

Hope this helps!

If starch, glucose and NaCl are soaked in the dialysis tubing , will there be a difference between the beginning and after 15min
spin [16.1K]
<span>Yes. If you put solutions containing the same concentration table salt, glucose and starch in different bags and place the bags in water (i.e., 0M) solution, then the bag with salt will contain more water after 15 minutes than the bag with glucose, which will contain more than the bag with starch.</span>

Calculate the molar mass of cacl2
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 110.98 \ g/mol}}

Explanation:

The molar mass is the mass of a substance in grams per mole.

To find it, add the mass of each element in the compound. These masses can be found on the Periodic Table.

The compound given is:

CaCl_2

The compound has 1 Ca (calcium) and 2 Cl (chlorine).

 

Mass of Calcium

  • The molar mass of calcium is 40.08 g/mol
  • There is only one atom of Calcium in CaCl₂, so the number above is what we will use.

Mass of Chlorine

  • The molar mass of chlorine is 35.45 g/mol
  • There are two atoms of chlorine in CaCl₂, therefore we need to multiply the molar mass by 2.
  • 35.45 * 2= 70.9 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaCl₂

  • Now, to find the molar mass, add the molar mass of 1 calcium and 2 chlorine.
  • 40.08 g/mol + 70.9 g/mol =110.98 g/mol

The molar mass of CaCl₂ is <u>110.98 grams per mole. </u>
