<span>A device that generates an intense beam of coherent monochromatic light (or other electromagnetic radiation) by stimulated emission of photons from excited atoms or molecules. Lasers are used in drilling and cutting, alignment and guidance, and in surgery; the optical properties are exploited in holography, reading bar codes, and in recording and playing compact discs.</span>

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: 114.91L

Explanation:

You need to know the conversion factor first in order to solve this. Any gas occupies 22.4L per mol.

5.13mol(\frac{22.4L}{1mol})= 114.91L of nitrogen gas.

Monochloroacetic acid (HC2H2ClO2) is a skin irritant that is used in "chemical peels" intended to remove the top layer of dead s
yaroslaw [1]

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 1.703

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Concentration of monochloroacetic acid = 0.31 M

The chemical equation for the dissociation of monochloroacetic acid follows:

                  HC_2H_2ClO_2\rightleftharpoons H^++C_2H_2ClO_2^-

<u>Initial:</u>               0.31

<u>At eqllm:</u>        0.31-x             x            x

The expression of K_a for above equation follows:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][C_2H_2ClO_2^-}}{[HC_2H_2ClO_2]}

We are given:

K_a=1.35\times 10^{-3}

Putting values in above equation follows:

1.35\times 10^{-3}=\frac{x\times x}{(0.31-x)}\\\\x=-0.021,0.0198

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative.

To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:

pH=-\log[H^+]

pH=-\log (0.0198)\\\\pH=1.703

Hence, the pH of the solution is 1.703
