EXPERIMENT 4 : TYPES OF PLATE BOUNDARY
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes most earthquakes. Most seismic activity occurs at three types of plate boundaries—divergent, convergent, and transform. As the plates move past each other, they sometimes get caught and pressure builds up.

Which is the strongest acid listed in the table?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Hydrofluoric acid.

Explanation:

To know which of the acid is the strongest, let us determine the pka of each acid. This is illustrated below:

1. Acetic acid

Ka = 1.8x10^-5

pKa =..?

pKa = –logKa

pKa = –Log 1.8x10^-5

pKa = 4.74

2. Benzoic acid

Ka = 6.5x10^-5

pKa =..?

pKa = –logKa

pKa = –Log 6.5x10^-5

pKa = 4.18

3. Hydrofluoric acid.

Ka = 6.8x10^-4

pKa =..?

pKa = –logKa

pKa = –Log 6.8x10^-4

pKa = 3.17

4. Hypochlorous acid

Ka = 3.0x10^-8

pKa =..?

pKa = –logKa

pKa = –Log 3.0x10^-8

pKa = 7.52

Note: the smaller the pKa value, the stronger the acid.

The pka of the various acids as calculated above is given below:

Acid >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> pKa

1. Acetic acid >>>>>>>>>> 4.74

2. Benzoic acid >>>>>>>> 4.18

3. Hydrofluoric acid >>>> 3.17

4. Hypochlorous acid >> 7.52

From the above illustration, we can see that hydrofluoric acid has the lowest pKa value. Therefore, hydrofluoric acid is the strongest among them.

The solubility product of PbI2 is 7.9x10^-9. What is the molar solubility of PbI2 in distilled water?
Agata [3.3K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar solubility of PbI_2 is 1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L

<u>Explanation:</u>

Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium.

Solubility product is defined as the product of concentration of ions present in a solution each raised to the power its stoichiometric ratio.

The balanced equilibrium reaction for the ionization of calcium fluoride follows:

PbI_2\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}+2I^-

                s       2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be:

K_{sp}=[Pb^{2+}][I^-]^2

We are given:

K_{sp}=7.9\times 10^{-9}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

7.9\times 10^{-9}=(s)\times (2s)^2\\\\7.9\times 10^{-9}=4s^3\\\\s=1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L

Hence, the molar solubility of PbI_2 is 1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L
