Which unit abbreviation is a measurement of force?

Artemon [7]

So,

Recall Newton's Second Law of Motion: force = mass x acceleration

Also recall:

acceleration = velocity/time
velocity = distance/time

Distance is expressed in meters.
Time is expressed in seconds.
Mass is expressed in kilograms.

v = m/s
a = m/s^2
F = m * a
F = kg * m/s^2

$F= \frac{kg*m}{s^2}$

The unit for force is the Newton (N).

If a sample of air initially occupies 240L at 2 atm how much pressure is required to compress it to 20L at constant temperature

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

24 atm.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 240 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Temperature = constant

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure required, can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2 × 240 = P₂ × 20

480 = P₂ × 20

Divide both side by 20

P₂ = 480 / 20

P₂ = 24 atm

Thus, the final pressure required is 24 atm.

If a buffer solution is 0.220 M in a weak acid ( Ka=7.4×10−5) and 0.540 M in its conjugate base, what is the pH?

valkas [14]

Answer: the pH of the solution is 4.52

Explanation:

Consider the weak acid as Ha, it is dissociated as expressed below

HA H⁺ + A⁻

the Henderson -Haselbach equation can be expressed as;

pH = pKa + log( [A⁻] / [HA])

the weak acid is dissociated into H⁺ and A⁻ ions in the solution.

now the conjugate base of the weak acid HA is

HA(aq) {weak acid} H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) {conjugate base}

so now we calculate the value of Kₐ as well as pH value by substituting the values of the concentrations into the equation;

pKₐ = -logKₐ

pKₐ = -log ( 7.4×10⁻⁵ )

pKₐ = 4.13

now thw pH is

pH = pKₐ + log( [A⁻] / [HA])

pH = 4.13 + log( [0.540] / [0.220])

pH = 4.13 + 0.3899

pH = 4.5199 = 4.52

Therefore the pH of the solution is 4.52

Explain how sodium and calcium react with water. explain with equations

Reaction of sodium with water

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour. The reaction is slower than that of potassium (immediately below sodium in the periodic table), but faster than that of lithium (immediately above sodium in the periodic table).

2Na(s) + 2H2O → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
