Nitrous acid<span> dissociates as follows:
</span>
HNO₂(s) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq) 
           
According to the equation, an acid constant has the following form:

Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻ ] / [HNO₂] 

From pH, we can calculate the concentration of H⁺ and NO₂⁻:

[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-2.63 = 0.00234 M = [NO₂⁻]

Now, the acid constant can be calculated:

Ka = 0.00234 x 0.00234 / 0.015  = 3.66 x 10⁻⁴

And finally,

pKa = -log Ka = 3.44

The distance between Earth and its moon is 384000000 meters. Express this distance in kilometers.
Andreyy89
384000000m

to change from m to km you just need to divide that give unit in Meters by 1000

which equals,
384000

so,

384000000 meters = 384000 kilometers

The measurable properties of a substance, such as vapor pressure and surface tension, occur due to the strength of
SpyIntel [72]

Properties of a substance such as vapor pressure and surface tension depend on electrical forces between particles, as given by Coulomb's law.

The vapor pressure refers to how easily a liquid converts to gas while surface tension is the force that makes a liquid surface act as a stretched elastic skin.

Both vapor pressure and surface tension has a lot to do with the degree of polarity in a molecule. Usually, polar molecules have a low vapor pressure and high surface tension due to a high electrical forces between particles, as given by Coulomb's law.

What information is needed to calculate the percent composition of a compound
IrinaVladis [17]

Percent Composition by Mass. Percent composition is calculated from a molecular formula by dividing the mass of a single element in one mole of a compound by the mass of one mole of the entire compound. This value is presented as a percentage.

The best answer. :)
