Given that w for water is 2. 4×10−14 m^2 at 37 °C. Calculate the ph of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c, which is the normal

alexgriva [62]

The pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37°C is 6.8.

Kw is defined as the dissociation, which is also known as self-ionization, constant of water. this is an equilibrium constant, and its expression is:

Kw = [OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺]

Neutral pH determines that the concentrations of OH⁻ and H₃O⁺ are equal.

<h3>Calculation</h3>

Let us suppose concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ is x, to calculate it:

Kw =[OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺] = x²

x² = 2.4 × 10⁻¹⁴ M²

x = 1.5919 × 10⁻⁷ M

Hence, the concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ (x) = [H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] = -log( 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M)

pH = 6.8

Thus, we find that the pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c (which is the normal human body temperature) is 6.8.

One of relatively few reactions that takes place directly between two solids at room temperature is In this equation, the in Ba(

yuradex [85]

Answer:

3.14 grams of ammonium thiocyanate must be used to react completely with 6.5 g barium hydroxide octahydrate.

Explanation:

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+8H_2O(l)+NH_3(g)$

The balance chemical equation is :

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+2NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+10H_2O(l)+2NH_3(g)$

Mass of barium hydroxide octahydrate = 6.5 g

Moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate = $\frac{6.5 g}{315 g/mol}=0.020635 mol$

According to reaction, 2 moles of ammonium thiocyanate reacts with1 mole of barium hydroxide octahydrate. The 0.020635 moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate will react with:

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.020635 mol=0.04127 mol$

Mass of 0.04127 moles of ammonium thiocyanate;

$0.04127 mol\times 76 g/mol=3.136 g\approx 3.14 g$

3.14 grams of ammonium thiocyanate must be used to react completely with 6.5 g barium hydroxide octahydrate

What is the minimum (non-zero) thickness of a benzene (n = 1.501) thin film that will result in constructive interference when v

ad-work [718]

Explanation:

At each reflecting surface (benzene and glass) there will be 180 degree phase change.

Now, for constructive interference the optical path in benzene is $\lambda$ .

Formula to calculate thickness of a benzene thin film is as follows.

Optical path length through benzene ( $\lambda$ ) = $2 \times n \times d$

Hence, substituting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Optical path length through benzene = $2 \times n \times d$

d = $\frac{\text{Optical path length through benzene}}{2 \times n}$

= $\frac{\lambda}{2 \times n}$

= $\frac{615 \times 10^{-9}}{2 \times 1.501}$ (as 1 nm = $10^{-9}m$

= 204.9 m

Thus, we can conclude that minimum thickness of benzene is 204.9 m.
