Answer:

2.8

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the molarity of the acetylsalicylic acid solution.

M = mass of solute (g) / molar mass of solute × volume of solution (L)

M = 0.327 g / 180.158 g/mol × 0.237 L

M = 7.66 × 10⁻³ M

For a weak acid such as acetylsalicylic acid, we can find the concentration of H⁺ using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka)

where,

Ca: concentration of the acid

Ka: acid dissociation constant

[H⁺] = √(7.66 × 10⁻³ × 3.3 × 10⁻⁴)

[H⁺] = 1.6 × 10⁻³ M

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 1.6 × 10⁻³ = 2.8

What would be the mass of 9.03*10^21 molecules of hydrobromic acid
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2.11 g hydrobromic acid (correct to 3SF)

Explanation:

Molecular formula of hydrobromic acid = C2H5BrO2

mass of C2H5BrO2 = 140.96g

Beginning with what we're given, 9.03*10^21 we then make a conversion by using Avegadro's number which is 6.02*10^23 per mole (Oct. 23 at 6:02 am is national mole day :) Then, we need to convert out of moles, 140.96g hydrombromic acid per mole.

It looks like this:

9.03*10^21 molecules • (1 mol C2H5BrO2 / 6.02*10^23 molecules) • (140g C2H5BrO2 / 1 mol) = 2.1144 g C2H5BrO2

Consider 100.0 g samples of two different compounds consisting only of carbon and oxygen. One compound contains 27.2 g of carbon
Pani-rosa [81]

<u>Answer:</u> The ratio of carbon in both the compounds is 1 : 2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of multiple proportions states that when two elements combine to form two or more compounds in more than one proportion. The mass of one element that combine with a given mass of the other element are present in the ratios of small whole number. For Example: Cu_2O\text{ and }CuO

  • <u>For Sample 1:</u>

Total mass of sample = 100 g

Mass of carbon = 27.2 g

Mass of oxygen = (100 - 27.7) = 72.8 g

To formulate the formula of the compound, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{27.2g}{12g/mole}=2.26moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{72.8g}{16g/mole}=4.55moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 2.26 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{2.26}{2.26}=1

For Oxygen  = \frac{4.55}{2.26}=2.01\approx 2

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : O = 1 : 2

Hence, the formula for sample 1 is CO_2

  • <u>For Sample 2:</u>

Total mass of sample = 100 g

Mass of carbon = 42.9 g

Mass of oxygen = (100 - 42.9) = 57.1 g

To formulate the formula of the compound, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{42.9g}{12g/mole}=3.57moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{57.1g}{16g/mole}=3.57moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 3.57 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{3.57}{3.57}=1

For Oxygen  = \frac{3.57}{3.57}=1

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : O = 1 : 1

Hence, the formula for sample 1 is CO

In the given samples, we need to fix the ratio of oxygen atoms.

So, in sample one, the atom ratio of oxygen and carbon is 2 : 1.

Thus, for 1 atom of oxygen, the atoms of carbon required will be = \frac{1}{2}\times 1=\frac{1}{2}

Now, taking the ratio of carbon atoms in both the samples, we get:

C_1:C_2=\frac{1}{2}:1=1:2

Hence, the ratio of carbon in both the compounds is 1 : 2

Einstein’s Theory of Relativity was built on the research and ideas of other scientists. The Theory of Relativity proposes that the speed of light is aconstant. The statement that explains why this is considered to be a scientific theory is that the majority of the scientific community voted on this theory over other possible explanations.
