Answer:

pH = 4.543

Explanation:

  • CH3CH2COOH  + H2O ↔ CH3CH2COO-  +  H3O+
  • pKa = - Log Ka

∴ Ka = [H3O+][CH3CH2COO-]/[CH3CH2COOH]

∴ pKa = 4.87

⇒ Ka = 1.349 E-5 = [H3O+][CH3CH2COO-]/[CH3CH2COOH]

added 300 mL 0f 0.02 M NaOH:

⇒ <em>C</em> CH3CH2COOH = ((0.200 L)(0.15 M)) - ((0.300 L)(0.02 M))/(0.3 + 0.2)

⇒ <em>C</em> CH3CH2COOH = 0.048 M

⇒ <em>C</em> NaOH = (0.300 L)(0.02 M) / (0.3 +0.2) = 0.012 M

mass balance:

⇒ 0.048 + 0.012 = 0.06 M = [CH3CH2COO-] + [CH3CH2COOH].......(1)

charge balance:

⇒ [H3O+] + [Na+] = [CH3CH2COO-]

∴ [Na+] = 0.02 M

⇒ [CH3CH2COO-] = [H3O+] + 0.02 M.............(2)

(2) in (1):

⇒ [CH3CH2COOH] = 0.06 M - 0.02 M - [H3O+] = 0.04 M - [H3O+]

replacing in Ka:

⇒ 1.349 E-5 = [H3O+][([H3O+] + 0.02) / (0.04 - [H3O+])

⇒ (1.349 E-5)(0.04 - [H3O+]) = [H3O+]² + 0.02[H3O+]

⇒ 5.396 E-7 - 1.349 E-5[H3O+] = [H3O+]² + 0.02[H3O+]

⇒ [H3O+]² + 0.02001[H3O+] - 5.396 E-7 = 0

⇒ [H3O+ ] = 2.867 E-5 M

∴ pH = - Log [H3O+]

⇒ pH = 4.543

A piece of metal with a mass of 611 g is placed into a graduated cylinder that contains 25.1 ml of water, raising the water leve
jeka94

Mass of metal piece is 611 g and volume of graduated cylinder is 25.1 mL. When metal piece is placed in the graduated cylinder water level increases to 56.7 mL. The increase in volume is due to volume of metal piece that gets added to the volume of water.

Thus, volume of metal piece can be calculated by subtracting initial volume from the final one.

V_{metal}=V_{final}-V_{initial}=(56.7-25.1)mL=31.6 mL

Thus, volume of metal piece will be 31.6 mL. The mass of metal piece is given 611 g, density of metal can be calculated as follows:

d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{611 g}{31.6 mL}=19.33 g/mL

Therefore, density of metal is 19.33 g/mL.

Diamond has a density of 3.513 g/cm³. The mass of diamonds is often measured in "carats," where 1 carat equals 0.200
Gennadij [26K]

The volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters is 0.106 cm³

Given,

The density of a diamond is  3.513 g/cm³.

We have to find out the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters.

Convert the units of the diamond from carat to grams, we have:

(1.86 carats) x (0.200 g / 1 carat) = 0.372 g

The volume of the diamond is obtained by dividing the mass by the density, therefore using the formula, we get

                            v = m / d

                            v = 0.372 g / (3.51 g/cm³) = 0.1059 cm³

                       or, v = 0.106 cm³ (approx)

Therefore, the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond is approximately 0.106 cm³.
