Let an n-protic acid be an acid that can donate n hydrogen ions and has the formula HnX. If 0.600 L of 0.400 M sodium hydroxide

is required to titrate 0.400 L of a 0.300 M HnX to the equivalence point, what is n in HnX?

Answer:

2, the acid is H₂X.

Explanation:

  • It is known at equivalence point: the no. of millimoles of base is equal to the no. of millimoles of acid.

<em>∴ (nMV) of NaOH = (nMV) for HnX.</em>

where, n is the no. of producible H⁺ or OH⁻ of the acid or base, respectively.

M is the molarity of the acid or base.

V is the volume of the acid or base.

  • For NaOH:

n = 1, M = 0.4 M, V = 0.6 L.

  • For HnX:

n = ???, M = 0.3 M, V = 0.4 L.

∴ n for HnX = (nMV) of NaOH / (MV) for HnX = (1)(0.4 M)(0.6 L)/(0.3 M)(0.4 L) = 2.

∴ the acid is H₂X.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

b. mercury

Explanation:

Fishes and some other sea foods are are known to concentrate mercury in their bodies. Consumption of these products gradually accumulate mercury in the body over time.

More specifically, fishes like swordfish, king mackerel and shark are known to concentrate higher amount of mercury than other species of fishes. Hence, limiting their consumption will protect humans from mercury poisoning.

The correct option is b.

What is the boiling point of water at an elevation of 1.55×104 ft ?
horsena [70]
The computation for this problem is:
(1.55x10^4 / 1.0x10^3) x 19.8 mm Hg
= 15.5 x 19.88 mm Hg
= 308.14 mm Hg decrease 
= 308.14 x 0.05 C = 15.407 deg C 
deduct this amount to 100
100 – 15.407 = 84.593 C 
ANSWER: 85 deg C (rounded to 2 significant figures)
