False. Because though some part of the Earth does have ice, ice is far different from land. As well as I dont think there is even such a thing as an "ice core", by means of other planets. <span />

Calculate the percent ionization of formic acid (hco2h) in a solution that is 0.311 m in formic acid and 0.189 m in sodium forma
ohaa [14]
<span>Answer: 0.094%


</span><span>Explanation:
</span>
<span></span><span /><span>
1) Equilibrium chemical equation:
</span><span />

<span>Only the ionization of the formic acid is the important part.
</span><span />

<span>HCOOH(aq) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
</span><span />

<span>2) Mass balance:
</span><span />

<span>                   HCOOH(aq)     HCOO⁻(aq)     H⁺(aq).

Start             0.311                 0.189

Reaction       - x                      +x                   +x

Final             0.311 - x          0.189 + x            x


3) Acid constant equation:
</span><span />

<span>Ka = [HCOO-] [N+] / [HCOOH] = (0.189 + x) x / (0.311 -x)
</span><span />

<span>= (0.189 + x )x / (0.311 - x) = 0.000177


4) Solve the equation:


You can solve it exactly (it will lead to a quadratic equation so you can use the quadratiic formula). I suggest to use the fact that x is much much smaller than 0.189 and 0.311.
</span><span />

<span>With that approximation the equation to solve becomes:


</span><span>0.1890x / 0.311 = 0.000177, which leads to:</span>
<span /><span>
x = 0.000177 x 0.311 / 0.189 = 2.91 x 10⁻⁴ M


5) With that number, the percent of ionization (alfa) is:
</span><span />

<span>percent of ionization = (moles ionized / initial moles) x 100 =
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>percent ionization = (concentration of ions / initial concentration) x 100 =
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>percent ionization = (0.000291 / 0.311)x 100 = 0.0936% = 0.094%

how many grams of calcium chloride can be prepared from 60.4 G of calcium oxide and 69.0 G of hydrochloric acid and a double dis
Ksenya-84 [330]
Balanced equation: 
<span>CaO + 2 HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O </span>
<span>Calculate moles of each reactant: </span>
<span>60.4 g CaO / 56.08 g/mol = 1.08 mol CaO </span>
<span>69.0 g HCl / 36.46 g/mol = 1.89 mol HCl </span>

<span>Identify the limiting reactant: </span>
<span>Moles CaO needed to react with all HCl: </span>
<span>1.89 mol HCl X (1 mol CaO / 2 mol HCl) = 0.946 mol CaO </span>
<span>Because you have more CaO than that available, HCl is the limiting reactant. </span>

<span>Calculate moles and mass CaCl2: </span>
<span>1.89 mol HCl X (1 mol CaCl2 / 2mol HCl) X 111.0 g/mol = 105 g CaCl2</span>
