Answer:

Acetic acid Ka = 1.74 × 10⁻⁵

Trichloroacetic acid Ka = 2 × 10⁻¹

Explanation:

Let's consider the acid dissociation of acetic acid.

CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76. The acid dissociation constant (Ka) is:

pKa = -log Ka

- pKa = log Ka

Ka = anti log (-pKa)

Ka = anti log (-4.76)

Ka = 1.74 × 10⁻⁵

Let's consider the acid dissociation of trichloroacetic acid.

CCl₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CCl₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

The pKa of trichloroacetic acid is 0.7. The acid dissociation constant (Ka) is:

pKa = -log Ka

- pKa = log Ka

Ka = anti log (-pKa)

Ka = anti log (-0.7)

Ka = 2 × 10⁻¹

Convert from moles to particles 6.02x1023 particles 1 mole Question 2. 2.7 moles of lithium Question 3. 1.8 moles of sodium chlo
spayn [35]

Considering the definition of Avogadro's number:

  • the number of molecules of lithium is 1.62621×10²⁴ molecules.
  • the number of molecules of sodium chloride is 1.08414×10²⁴ molecules.

<h3>Definition of Avogadro's number</h3>

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

<h3>Amount of molecules in this case</h3>

You can apply the following rule of three, considering the Avogadro's number:  If 1 mole of lithium contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 2.7 moles of lithium contains how many molecules?

amount of molecules of lithium= (6.023×10²³ molecules × 2.7 moles)÷1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules of lithium=1.62621×10²⁴ molecules</em></u>

Finally, the number of molecules of lithium is 1.62621×10²⁴ molecules.

On the other hand you can apply the following rule of three, considering the Avogadro's number:  If 1 mole of sodium chloride​ contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 1.8 moles of  sodium chloride​ contains how many molecules?

amount of molecules of sodium chloride= (6.023×10²³ molecules × 1.8 moles)÷1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules of sodium chloride=1.08414 ×10²⁴ molecules</em></u>

Finally, the number of molecules of sodium chloride is 1.08414×10²⁴ molecules.

What is the most likely evidence of an energy transformation taking place when a skater glides over ice? A.Skating blades become
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
The correct answer is C. The weight downward and the friction moving forward creates thermal energy through kinetics and melts a tiny bit of the ice making it slick enough for the skate to slide.

What results when equal but opposite charges are present in two regions of a polar molecule? A. dipole B. ionic bond C. Electron
Masteriza [31]

Answer: A. dipole

Explanation:

Dipole can be defined as the separation of the equal and opposite charges present in the molecule via ionic bonding. The water molecule comprising of two molecules of hydrogen being positively charged and one molecule of oxygen being negatively charged are connected via ionic bonding thus water molecule is an example of dipole molecule. There is unequal distribution of the electrical density throughout the molecule.

If 5.100 g of c6h6 is burned and the heat produced from the burning is added to 5691 g of water at 21 °c, what is the final temp
emmasim [6.3K]
  <span>C6H12 = 6x12 + 6x1 = 78. 
The equation indicates that 2x78 = 156g benzene will produce 6542kJ. 
Using proportions you can then calculate that 
x/6542kJ = 7.9g / 156g 
x = 331.3kJ = 331300J. 

heat = mass x ΔT x 4.18J/g° 
ΔT = 331300J / (5691g x 4.18J/g°) = 13.9° 

final temp = 21 + 14° = 35°C</span>
