Answer:

1. Ka = 8.16x10⁻⁵

2. pH = 2.40

Explanation:

1. The dissociation of a weak acid in water occurs as follows:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

Ka = [H⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]

As 2% of the 0.20M solution is dissociated:

[H⁺] = [A⁻] = 0.20M * 2% = 0.004M -As H⁺ and A⁻ comes from the same reaction, their concentrations are the same

[HA] = 0.20M * 98% = 0.196M

Ka = (0.004)² / (0.196M) = 8.16x10⁻⁵

2. pH = -log [H⁺] = -log [0.004M]

<h3>pH = 2.40</h3>

pychu [463]
The balanced chemical reaction would be 

<span>fecl2 + 2naoh =  fe(oh)2(s) + 2nacl

Initial amounts of the reactants are given, so, we need to determine which of the reactants is the limiting reactant and use this amount to determine what is asked. However, what is being asked is how many of the FeCl2 is used in the reaction, showing that it is NaOH that is the limiting reactants. Thus, we just use the initial amount of NaOH and relate the substances by the chemical reaction as follows:

6 mol NaOH ( 1 mol FeCl2 / 2 mol NaOH ) = 3 mol FeCl2

Therefore, 3 moles of FeCl2 is used up and 3 moles of FeCl2 is also left after the reaction.</span>

Find the mass of an object with a density of 2.01g/mL and a volume of 3.77mL
oee [108]

Answer:

<h2>7.58 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question we have

mass = 2.01 × 3.77 = 7.5777

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.58 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
