To separate solid particles from a liquid, you would use:

Calculate the pka of hypochlorous acid. The ph of a 0.015 m solution of hypochlorous acid has a ph of 4.64.

o-na [289]

Answer:

pKa = 7.46

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO

b) [HClO} = 0.015

c) pH = 4.64

d) pKa = ?

2) Strategy:

With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.

3) Solution:

a) pH

pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

4.64 = - log [H₃O⁺]

$[H_3O^+]= 10^{-4.64} = 2.29.10^{-5}$

b) Equilibrium equation: HClO (aq) ⇄ ClO⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq)

c) Equilibrium constant: Ka = [ClO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HClO]

d) From the stoichiometry: [CLO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M

e) By substitution: Ka = (2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M)² / 0.015M = 3.50 × 10⁻⁸ M

f) By definition: pKa = - log Ka = - log (3.50 × 10 ⁻⁸) = 7.46

You react 2.43 grams of magnesium with oxygen from the air according to the following reaction. The final mass of the product, m

Leona [35]

Answer:

The mass of oxygen that reacted is approximately 1.6 grams of oxygen

Explanation:

The given information are;

The mass of magnesium in the reaction = 2.43 grams

The final mass of the magnesium oxide = 4.12 grams

The chemical equation for the reaction is given as follows;

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO

From which we see that two moles of magnesium, Mg, reacts with one mole of oxygen gas molecule, O₂, to produce two moles of magnesium oxide, MgO

The number of moles of magnesium present, $n_{Mg}$ , is given as follows;

$n_{Mg} = \dfrac{Mass \ of \, magnesium}{Molar \ mass \ of \, magnesium} = \dfrac{2.43}{24.305} \approx 0.1 \ moles$

By the given chemical equation, 2 moles of magnesium reacts with one mole of O₂, therefore;

1 mole of magnesium will react with 1/2 moles of oxygen which is 0.5 moles of oxygen also;

0.1 mole of magnesium will react with 0.05 moles of oxygen

The mass of one mole of oxygen = The molar mass of oxygen = 32 g/mol

The mass of oxygen in the reaction = The number of moles of oxygen × The molar mass of oxygen

The mass of oxygen in the reaction = 0.05 × 32 = 1.6 grams

Also from the molar mass of MgO which is 40.3044 g/mol, we have;

The mass fraction of oxygen = 16/40.3044 = 0.39698 ≈ 0.4

The mass of oxygen = 0.39698 × 4.12 = 1.636 g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen in the reaction is approximately 1.6 grams.

Various plant and animal species are on the verge of extinction.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1: A.) adapted

2: A.) habitat destruction

Explanation:

Some (few) animals are capable of adjusting their behaviors in relation to human activity and the changes humans make in their habitat. Most are so well adapted to the details of their habitat that they are incapable of surviving when those details change.

"Because all organisms are adapted to their native habitat, human activities that result in habitat destruction are a major reason for their extinction."

Comment on human activities

My friendly local rodent exterminator observed that rodent activity has picked up substantially, since so much human activity has been curtailed by quarantine orders.

Describe any new ways you can change the polarity of the three-atom molecule.

yan [13]

- By changing three atom bond angle , we can change molecular polarity. if bond angle is 120° and all atom has same electronegativity, the resultant polarity ( dipole moment ) become zero. we can change bond anngle either less than or greater than 120°, but not exactly 120

- Replacing one or more atom with different atoms having electro negativity values also make molecular poles.

- By placing molecules under external electric field or magnetic field also causes to the molecule.
