It is what form where all coeficients are made into the smallest whole numbers

example

2C+4HC=8HC could be simplified to
C+2HC=4HC (note: formula is not a liegit one, only for example)

n acid with a pKa of 8.0 is present in a solution with a pH of 6.0. What is the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form
Nady [450]

Answer : The ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid is, 100

Explanation : Given,

pK_a=8.0

pH = 6.0

To calculate the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid we are using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

6.0=8.0+\log \frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}

\frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}=0.01  

As per question, the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid will be:

\frac{[Protonated]}{[Deprotonated]}=100  

Therefore, the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid is, 100

What will be the boiling point of a solution of 8 moles of sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) dissolved in 8 kg of water? Use the foll
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

1. 374.69 K

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, pure water's boiling point is 373.15 K, thus by considering the boiling point increase equation:

\Delta T=imKf

Whereas i=2 since two ionic species are formed,actually, the experimental value is 2.42 so better work with it, thus:

\Delta T=2.42*(\frac{8}{8}m)*0.512 Km^{-1}=1.239K

Thus, the required boiling point is:

T_b=373.15K+1.239K\\T_b=374.69K

Regards.

Corn plants may be tall (TT or Tt) or short (tt). The breeding of two parent corn plants results in offspring that are all tall.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

  • The probability that both of the parents are homozygous recessive is zero.
  • In our case, The gene for tallness is dominant over the gene for dwarfism
  • Therefore; TT is homozygous dominant while tt is homozygous recessive and Tt is heterozygous.
  • Heterozygous genotype (Tt) will exhibit a tall phenotype.
  • When two parents are crossed and all the offsprings are tall then the possible genotype of the parents is either;
  1. Homozygous dominant for both parents or  

       TT x TT

    2. One parent is homozygous dominant and the other is homozygous recessive.

        TT x Tt

  • Therefore, the probability of having both parents as homozygous recessive when all the offspring are tall is Zero.
