If a weak acid is 25 deprotonated at ph 4 what would the pka be

Chemistry
1 answer:
elena-s [515]3 years ago
6 0

4.48

pH=pKa+log([A-/HA])

25% deprotonated tells us that A- is .25 and that the rest (75% is protonated) thats .75.

4 = pKa + log \frac{.25}{.75}

4 - log \frac{.25}{.75}  = pKa

4.48=pKa

A student is monitoring the pressure of a gas in a rigid container. The amount of gas particles and the volume of the container
GenaCL600 [577]

a.The gas pressure will decrease.

Explanation:

If in a rigid container, the amount of gas particles and volume of the container is held constant, the pressure will decrease if the temperature is reduced.

  • Gases are highly random particles and they require a high amount of kinetic energy to be in their state of matter.
  • In a condition where volume of container is fixed, the amount of gas particles is fixed and the temperature reduced, the kinetic energy of the gas particles will directly reduce.
  • The kinetic energy of gases is directly related to temperature.

Design a test to determine whether thorium-234 also emits particles. First, explain how Rutherford’s experiment measured positiv
liubo4ka [24]

The characteristics of the α and β particles allow to find  the design of an experiment to measure the ²³⁴Th particles is:

  • On a screen, measure the emission as a function of distance and when the value reaches a constant, there is the beta particle emission from ²³⁴Th.
  • The neutrons cannot be detected in this experiment because they have no electrical charge.

In Rutherford's experiment, the positive particles directed to the gold film were measured on a phosphorescent screen that with each arriving particle a luminous point is seen.

The particles in this experiment are α particles that have two positive charge and two no charged is a helium nucleus.

The test that can be carried out is to place a small ours of Thorium in front of a phosphorescent screen and see if it has flashes, with the amount of them we can determine the amount of particle emitted per unit of time.

Thorium has several isotopes, with different rates and types of emission:

  • ²³²Th emits α particles, it is the most abundant 99.9%
  • ²³⁴Th emits β particles, exists in small traces.

In this case they indicate that the material used is ²³⁴Th, which emits β particles that are electrons, the detection of these particles is more difficult since it has one negative charge, it has much lower mass, but they can travel further than the particles α, therefore, for what type of isotope we have, we can start measuring at a small distance and increase the distance until the reading is constant. At this point all the particles that arrive are β, which correspond to ²³⁴Th.

Neutron detection is much more difficult since these particles have no charge and therefore do not interact with electrons and no flashing on the screen is varied.

In conclusion with the characteristics of the α and β particles we can find the design of an experiment to measure the ²³⁴Th particles is:

  • On a screen, measure the emission as a function of distance and when the value reaches a constant, there is the β particle emission from ²³⁴Th.
  • The neutrons cannot be detected in this experiment because they have no electrical charge.
