Answer:

D

Explanation:

Since [pKa = - log Ka]....hence..,the larger the Ka value,the stronger the acid is..so this means that the pKa is vice versa

Saying that the smaller the pKa value..the stronger the acid is.

Answer:

D) An acid with a small pKa is stronger than an acid with a large pKa

Explanation:

Hi, the acity constant (Ka) gives an idea of the strenght of an acid. The higher the Ka, the stronger the acid.

The indicator pKa is obtained by the following formula:

pKa=-\log{Ka}

Due to the logarithm, when the Ka increases, the pKa decreases.

<u>Putting all this toghether</u>: An acid with a large Ka has a small pKa and is stronger than an acid with a small Ka (large pKa).

So the correct statement is D

Nurse Antonio measured out 7 grams of sodium chloride (NaCI). Using dimensional analysis, calculate how many moles of NaCI he we
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

0.119 moles

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass measured by Nurse Antonio is 7 grams of NaCl

To find,

The no of moles of NaCl

Solution,

The number of moles is given by

n=\dfrac{m}{M}

m is given mass

M is molar mass

For NaCl, molar mass is 23+35.5 = 58.5 grams

So,

n=\dfrac{7}{58.5}\\\\n=0.119\ \text{moles}

Therefore, there are 0.119 moles of NaCl.

Type the correct answer in the box. a pharmacist works with a 1.75 m solution of sodium bromide (nabr) and water. the volume of
Elodia [21]

Answer: 147 mL

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Molarity of the sodium bromide (NaBr) solution (M1)  = 1.75 M

Volume of the solution (V1) = 84 mL

Molarity of the diluted NaBr solution (M2) = 1 M

Using the dilution formula to solve for V2:

\begin{gathered}M_{1} V_{1}=M_{2} V_{2} \\V_{2}=(1.75 \mathrm{M} \times 84 \mathrm{~mL}) / 1 \mathrm{M} \\V_{2}=147 \mathrm{~mL}\end{gathered}

Therefore, the new volume of the solution is 147 mL

What can you conclude about red visible light waves compared to blue visible light waves?
lawyer [7]

Explanation:

On comparing blue visible light with red visible light, there is difference in the wavelength, frequency, and energy. The difference between both red and blue visible lights are as follows.

Blue visible light:

  • It has low wavelength.
  • High frequency.
  • More energy.              

Red visible light:

  • It has high wavelength.
  • Low frequency.
  • Less energy.

a solution is made by dissolving 21.5 grams of glucose (C6H12O6) in 255 grams of water. what is the freezing point depression of
Lesechka [4]
The freezing point depression of the solution or pure substance that is added with the solvent is calculated through the equation,
    
  ΔTf = Kfm

where ΔT is the freezing point depression, Kf is the constant for water given to be -1.86°C/m and m is the molality of the solution. 

Molality is calculated through the equation,
    
    m = number of moles solute/ kg of solvent

Calculation of molality is shown below.
    
   m = (21.5 g C6H12O6)(1 mol/180 g) / (0.255 kg)
     m = 0.468 molal

The freezing point depression is then,
    
   ΔTf = (-1.86°C/m)(0.468 m) = -0.87°C

<em>Answer: -0.87°C</em>
