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

When you transferred the hot metal from the boiling water and into the calorimeter (coffee cup), if the thermometer touched the
sergey [27]

When you transferred the hot metal from the boiling water and into the calorimeter,  The effect will be

  • Change in temp is positive
  • Temp of metal V, dT=-ve
  • No change occurs in the specific heat of metal

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is the Specific heat of the metal?</h3>

a )Since the metal of the cup is hot and the water inside is cold, the water's temperature will rise as heat is transferred from the metal to the liquid.

Change in temp is positive

b)

Due to (a), heat is lost from the food to the water in the cup, lowering the metal's temperature.

Temp of metal V, dT=-ve

c)

No change occurs in the specific heat of metal because of its constant property.

- Explain how ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds each form and how.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:  -Ionic bonds form when one atom provides electrons to another atom. Covalent Bonds: Covalent bonds form when two atom shares their valence electrons. Metallic Bonds: Metallic bonds form when a variable number of atoms share a variable number of electrons in a metal lattice.

-Covalent Bonds.

Covalent Compounds. Contain no metals and no ions. Covalent compounds contain nonmetals only.

Example:

Ionic Compounds. A metal with a non-metal. Doesn't use prefixes for naming. Name the metal and change the nonmetal ending to -ide.

Explanation: Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
