A. the moon's gravitational pull on earth causes water to bulge on two sides of the earth
Answer : If we list the given chemicals according to their increasing oxidising ability then the order will be like this; 1 being the strongest and 6 being the weakest
1. K > 2. Ca >3. Ni> 4. Cu> 5. Ag> 6.Au
Explanation : Considering the reduction potential of each chemical species it will be easy to identify their oxidising capacity and differentiate accordingly;
More negative the value of reduction potential more is the ability of the chemical species to get oxidised.
Chemicals with their reduction potential is given below.
K has -2.92; Ca has -2.76; Ni has -0.23; Cu has 0.52; Ag has 1.50 and Au has 1.50.
Answer:
a. 1.78x10⁻³ = Ka
2.75 = pKa
b. It is irrelevant.
Explanation:
a. The neutralization of a weak acid, HA, with a base can help to find Ka of the acid.
Equilibrium is:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
And Ka is defined as:
Ka = [H⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]
The HA reacts with the base, XOH, thus:
HA + XOH → H₂O + A⁻ + X⁺
As you require 26.0mL of the base to consume all HA, if you add 13mL, the moles of HA will be the half of the initial moles and, the other half, will be A⁻
That means:
[HA] = [A⁻]
It is possible to obtain pKa from H-H equation (Equation used to find pH of a buffer), thus:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
Replacing:
2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
As [HA] = [A⁻]
2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ 1
<h3>2.75 = pKa</h3>
Knowing pKa = -log Ka
2.75 = -log Ka
10^-2.75 = Ka
<h3>1.78x10⁻³ = Ka</h3>
b. As you can see, the initial concentration of the acid was not necessary. The only thing you must know is that in the half of the titration, [HA] = [A⁻]. Thus, the initial concentration of the acid doesn't affect the initial calculation.
Answer:
I'm pretty sure the answer is C.
Answer:
Propyne can be converted to the acetone when it is made to undergo the reaction with mercuric sulphate followed by hydrolysis and thus, resultant product, thus formed is acetone.
