Missing question:
<span>A. H3PO4 (aq)<--> H+ (aq) + H2PO4- (aq).
B. H2PO4- (aq)<--> H+ (aq) + H2PO4-^2- (aq).
C. H3PO4 (aq)<--> 2H+ (aq) + HPO4^2-(aq).
D. HPO4^2- (aq)<--> H+ (aq) + PO4^3- (aq).
</span>Answer is: A. H3PO4 (aq)<--> H+ (aq) + H2PO4- (aq).
<span>The first dissociation constant :</span>Ka₁ = [H+]·[H₂PO₄⁻] / [H₃PO₄<span>].
In first dissociation phosphoric acid lost one proton (hydrogen ion).

Ans: H₃PO₄ ↔ H⁺ + H₂PO₄⁻

Phosphoric acid is a weak triprotic acid. The three acidic protons are released  in a stepwise manner and are represented in terms of their dissociation constants, ka values.

Step 1: H₃PO₄ ↔ H⁺ + H₂PO₄⁻         Ka₁ = 7.1 *10⁻³

Step 2: H₂PO₄⁻ ↔ H⁺ + HPO₄²⁻       Ka₂ = 6.3 *10⁻⁸

Step 3: HPO₄²⁻ ↔ H⁺ + PO₄³⁻         Ka₃ = 4.5 *10⁻¹³

Since Ka1 is the greatest, the reaction is described by step 1.

Which one is unsaturated hydrocarbon?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The correct answer is - D C2H4.

Explanation:

Saturated hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons with single covalent C-C bonds. They are known as alkanes. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is  CnH2n+2

Unsaturated hydrocarbons the hydrocarbons with double or triple covalent C-C bonds. They are known as alkenes and alkynes respectively. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is  CnH2n and CnHn-2

For the given options:

Option D: C2H4, is the simplest alkene with a double bond so it is an unsaturated hydrocarbon.

when 6.25 grams of pure iron are allowed to react with oxygen , a black oxide forms. if the product weighs 8.15 g, what is the e
erik [133]
We are given with the mass of  pure iron that reacts with oxygen to form an oxide which has a given mass as well. the mass of oxygen reacted is 8.15-6.25 g or 1.9 grams. THen we convert the mass of the reactants to moles. Iron is equal to 0.1119 moles and oxygen is equal to 0.1188. We divide each number to the less amount. Hence iron is 1 and oxygen is approx 1. The empirical formula hence is FeO or ferrous oxide or Iron (II) oxide.

Determine which law is appropriate for solving the following problem. Carbon dioxide is in a steel tank at 20°C, 10 liters and 1
patriot [66]

<u>Answer:</u>

Law used: Combined Gas Law

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the following problem:

Carbon dioxide is in a steel tank at 20°C, 10 liters and 1 atm. What is the pressure on the gas when the tank is heated to 100°C?

To solve this, the most appropriate law that can be used it Combined Gas Law, which is the result of combining the Boyle's law, Charles' law, and Gay-Lussac's law together.
