The acid dissociation constant or Ka is a value used to measure the strength of a specific acid in solution. For a general dissociation of an acid solution,
HA = H+ + A-
we express Ka as follows:
Ka = [H+] [A-] / [HA]
Where the terms represents the concentrations of the acid and the ions. Assuming that the weak acid in the problem is HA, we first calculate for the concentration of H+ from the pH.
pH = - log [H+]
3.25 = - log [H+]
[H+] = 0.0005623 M
By the ICE table, we can calculate the equilibrium concentrations,
HA = H+ + A-
I 0.175 0 0
C -x +x +x

E .174438 0.0005623 0.0005623
Ka = (0.0005623) (0.0005623) / .174438
Ka = 1.81x10^-6
Answer:
Since Beryllium has a larger atomic radius than Sulphur its electrons are not strongly attracted to the nucleus hence lost easily. But Sulphur has a small atomic radius hence electrons are more closely attracted to the nucleus.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Respiration is the process by which you get energy from food. So energy in food is converted to a form that can be used by the body
Answer:
V₂ = 0.656 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Initial volume = 3.5 L
Initial pressure = 2.5 KPa
Final volume = ?
Final pressure = 100 mmHg (100/7.501=13.33 KPa)
Solution:
The given problem will be solved through the Boyle's law,
"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"
Mathematical expression:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₁ = Initial pressure
V₁ = initial volume
P₂ = final pressure
V₂ = final volume
Now we will put the values in formula,
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
2.5 KPa × 3.5 L = 13.33 KPa × V₂
V₂ = 8.75 KPa. L/13.33 KPa
V₂ = 0.656 L
