Picric acid has been used in the leather industry and in etching copper. However, its laboratory use has been restricted because

it dehydrates on standing and can become shock sensitive. It has an acid dissociation constant of 0.42.
a. What is the [H3O+] for an 0.52 M solution of picric acid? Enter to 4 decimal places.

Answer:

0.3023 M

Explanation:

Let Picric acid = H_{picric}

So,  H_{picric}     +       H_2}O          ⇄      H_3}O^+     +     Picric^-

The ICE table can be given as:

                          H_{picric}     +       H_2}O          ⇄      H_3}O^+     +     Picric^-

Initial:                0.52                                               0                  0

Change:             - x                                                 + x                 + x

Equilibrium:      0.52 - x                                        + x                 + x

Given that;

acid dissociation constant  (K_a) = 0.42

K_a = \frac{[H_3O^+][Picric^-]}{H_{picric}}

0.42 = \frac{[x][x]}{0.52-x}}

0.42 = \frac{[x]^2}{0.52-x}}

0.42(0.52-x) = x²

0.2184 - 0.42x = x²

x²  + 0.42x - 0.2184 = 0                   -------------------- (quadratic equation)

Using the quadratic formula;

\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}    ;     ( where +/-  represent ± )

= \frac{-0.42+/-\sqrt{(0.42)^2-4(1)(-0.2184)} }{2*1}

= \frac{-0.42+/-\sqrt {0.1764+0.8736} }{2}

= \frac{-0.42+\sqrt {1.0496} }{2}     OR   \frac{-0.42-\sqrt {1.0496} }{2}

= \frac{-0.42+1.0245}{2}       OR    \frac{-0.42-1.0245}{2}

= \frac{0.6045}{2}                 OR    -\frac{1.4445}{2}

= 0.30225          OR     - 0.72225

So, we go by the +ve integer that says:

x =  0.30225

x = [ H_3}O^+ ] = [   Picric^- ] =  0.3023  M

∴  the value of  [H3O+] for an 0.52 M solution of picric acid  = 0.3023 M     (to 4 decimal places).

14. Compare between the plasticity of edge and screw dislocations in BCC metals 15. Why does a screw dislocation in a BCC metal
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

14) The edge dislocation is more plastic than the screw dislocation

15) So as to form kinks that are fast moving

Explanation:

14) Edge and screw dislocations are the two main types of mobile dislocations

The three dimensional core of the screw dislocation prevents the slipping of the layers (one over the other) in a BCC metal such that kinks are required to be formed first  by thermal activation (heating) in order. The kinks are edge dislocation that move such that the screw dislocation moves forward

Hence, the edge dislocation is more plastic than the screw dislocation

15) The three dimensional structure of a screw dislocation acts like a wedge which resists the slipping of the layers in the BCC structure such that the screw dislocation needs to be highly thermally activated forming kinks before the surrounding layers can move.

Which type of wires (copper, aluminum, or string) are ferromagnetic metals and why?
nalin [4]

Answer: Copper isn't ferromagnetic,

Aluminum isn't ferromagnetic,

String has a ferromagnetic property

Explanation: first of all it is important to understand that all materials have diamagnetic effect.

From this we can explain two distinct property which is Paramagnetism and Ferromagnetism.

1.What do we understand by a paramagnetic material?

Ans- this describes a material that doesn't retain it's magnetic property even when the magnetic field has been removed, an example is Aluminum.

2. Ferromagnetic materials describes those type of materials that even after the removal of magnetic field retains it's magnetism. A good example of this is Iron, nickel etc.

By definition ferromagnetism is a basic property ( which depends on temperature, crystal Structure, chemical composition, etc.) That gives a material that attraction to magnet's and can form permanent magnet.

So from the examples listed in the question,

1. copper doesn't follow as a ferromagnetic material because it requires so much magnetic field to operate and is so weakly magnetized.

2. We already established aluminium as a paramagnetic material because of its weak ability to retain magnetism in the absence of magnetic field.

3. String because of its component which is (iron+carbon) has the ability to form ferrous metals.

A car's fuel efficiency is 39.0 miles per gallon. What is its fuel efficiency in kilometers per liter? (1.6094 km=1 mile)(1 gall
MrRa [10]

Answer:

the fuel efficiency in kilometers per liter is 16.561 kilometer per liter

Explanation:

The computation of the full efficiency in kilometers per liter is shown below:

39.0 miles ÷ gallon = (39.0 miles ÷ gallon) × (1.6094 km ÷ 1 miles)  × (1 gallon ÷ 3.79 L)

Now cut the opposite miles and gallons

So, the fuel efficiency would be

= 16.561 kilometers per liter

Hence, the fuel efficiency in kilometers per liter is 16.561 kilometer per liter
