svlad2 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Let us see the structure of ascorbic acid


As shown there is no COOH group however the OH group can lose a proton and forms conjugate base

The conjugate base formed is stabilized due to resonance

More the stability of conjugate base more the strength of acid

Hence ascorbic acid behaves as an acid

Nikolay [14]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

If the initial concentration of NOBr is 0.0440 M, the concentration of NOBr after 9.0 seconds is ________.

The reaction

2NOBr(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+Br_2(g)

It is a second-order reaction with a rate constant of 0.80 M⁻¹s⁻¹ at 11 °C.

Answer : The concentration of after 9.0 seconds is, 0.00734 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 0.80 M⁻¹s⁻¹

t = time taken  = 142 second

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.0440 M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.80M^{-1}s^{-1}=\frac{1}{142s}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.0440M)}\right)

[A]=0.00734M

Hence, the concentration of after 9.0 seconds is, 0.00734 M

What caused light to appear bent when it refracts ?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Light refracts whenever it travels at an angle into a substance with a different refractive index (optical density). This change of direction is caused by a change in speed. ... When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

How would making bigger the population of a coyote affect the population of both rabbits and grasses
ra1l [238]
If you were to make coyote population bigger it would first affect the rabbits because with there being more coyote's they have to bring more food for the pack and with the rabbits being hunted more and more the grass that the rabbits would eat, is not being eaten then the grass will grow more often and more longer.
That is the circle of life in the wild.

Cylinder of air at 1.5 atm of pressure is kept at room temperature while a piston compresses the air from 40 l down to 10 ml. wh
djyliett [7]

The new pressure, P₂ is 6000 atm.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given,

P₁ = 1.5 atm

V₁ = 40 L = 40,000 mL

V₂ = 10 mL

To calculate,

P₂ =?

Boyle's law is applied here.

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, a gas's volume changes inversely with applied pressure.

                                        PV = constant

Therefore,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Put the above values in the equation,

1.5 × 40,000 = P₂ × 10

P₂  = 1.5 × 4000

P₂  = 6000 atm

Therefore, the new pressure, P₂ is 6000 atm.
