I’m assuming that this is based on percent mass.

Strontium Oxalate has a formula weight of 175.64 g/mol, and water has a f.w. of 18.02 g/mol. Because SrC2O4 makes up nearly 91% of the weight by mass, we can assume that the number of H2O molecules in this formula are very low.

You can test SrC2O4•H2O (f.w. 193.66) and the role that the strontium oxalate plays by mass by dividing the weight of the strontium oxalate by the weight of the strontium oxalate monohydrate. In this case:

175.64/193.66 = 0.9069, or 90.69% by weight.

Because the weight calculated here matches the one requested in the problem, SrC2O4•H2O, or strontium oxalate monohydrate, is the formula for the hydrate.

The pressure of the gas used in the weather balloon increases to expand the balloon.

Explanation:

Weather balloons contain the boxes where the weather measurement instruments are present that is attached to the large balloon.
Weather balloon uses gases like Hydrogen or Helium. When the weather balloon rises to the atmosphere, the air pressure decreases. This leads to the increase in the pressure of hydrogen or Helium gas used in the weather balloon. This expands the balloon.
The gas particles hits the balloon container and generates the pressure. The increase of pressure thus helps the weather balloon to move in a constant speed through the atmosphere.

Fill in the left side of this equilibrium constant equation for the reaction of benzoic acid (HC_6H_5CO_2) with water.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

[C₆H₅COO⁻][H₃O⁺]/[C₆H₅COOH] = Ka

Explanation:

The reaction of dissociation of the benzoic acid in water is given by the following equation:

C₆H₅-COOH + H₂O ⇄ C₆H₅-COO⁻ + H₃O⁺ (1)

The dissociation constant of an acid is the measure of the strength of an acid:

HA ⇄ A⁻ + H⁺ (2)

$K_{a} = \frac{[A^{-}][H^{+}]}{[HA]}$ (3)

Where the dissociation constant of the acid (Ka) is equal to the ratio of the concentration of the dissociated forms of the acid, [A⁻][H⁺], and the concentration of the acid, [HA].

So, starting from the equations (2) and (3), the constant equation for the dissociation reaction of benzoic acid in water, of the equation (1), is:

$K_{a} = \frac{[C_{6}H_{5}COO^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[C_{6}H_{5}COOH]}$

I hope it helps you!
