Answer:

Lithium is a naturally occurring alkali metal, which living organisms ingest from dietary sources and which is also present in trace amounts in the human body. In much higher concentrations, lithium is effective as a medication for mania and mood swings including manic depressive disorders

A chemist prepares a solution of sodium thiosulfate by measuring out of sodium thiosulfate into a volumetric flask and filling t
marshall27 [118]

Mass of sodium thiosulfate Na_{2}S_{2}O_{3} is 110. g

Volume of the solution is 350. mL

Calculating the moles of sodium thiosulfate:

110. g Na_{2}S_{2}O_{3} * \frac{1 mol Na_{2}S_{2}O_{3}}{158.1 g Na_{2}S_{2}O_{3}} = 0.696 molNa_{2}S_{2}O_{3}

Converting the volume of solution to L:

350. mL * \frac{1 L}{1000 mL} = 0.350 L

Finding out the concentration of solution in molarity:

\frac{0.696 mol}{0.350 L} =  1.99 mol/L

The leaves of the rhubarb plant contain high concentrations of diprotic oxalic acid (hooccooh) and must be removed before the st
Andrei [34K]
First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2  so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄      ⇄     H⁺   + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M            0          0
0.0356 - x            x          x
Ka1 = \frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]} = x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6

Answer:

Explanation:

this is because we have one color that both atoms share (green). both sample 1 and sample 2 have green and another color. yet, since they share one color, they are likely similar

What pressure is required to achieve a co2 concentration of 7.90×10−2 m at 20∘c?
Savatey [412]

Answer:-  1.90 atm

Solution:- It is based on combined gas law equation, PV = nRT

In this equation, P is pressure, V is volume, n is moles of gas, R is universal gas constant and T is kelvin temperature.

If we divide both sides by V then:

P=\frac{nRT}{V}

We know that, molarity is moles per liter. So, in the above equation we could replace \frac{n}{V} by molarity, M of the gas. The equation becomes:

P = MRT

T = 20 + 273 = 293 K

M = 7.9*10^-^2

Let's plug in the values in the equation:

P = (7.9*10^-^2)(0.0821)(293)

P = 1.90 atm

So, the pressure of the gas is 1.90 atm.
