Lawrencium has 10 recognized isotopes. Its most stable is 262Lr, with a half-life of about four hours.
Answer:answers are in the explanation
Explanation:
(a). pH less than 7 between 1 - 3.5 are strong acid, and between 4.5-6.9 weak acid.
pH greater than 7; between 10-14 is a strong base, and between 7.1 - 9, it is weakly basic.
(b). Equation of reaction;
HBr + KOH ---------> KBr + H2O
One mole of HBr reacts with one mole of KOH to give one Mole of KBr and one mole of H2O
Calculating the mmol, we have;
mmol KOH = 28.0 ml × 0.50 M
mmol KOH= 14 mmol
mmol of HBr= 56 ml × 0.25M
mmol of HBr= 14 mmol
Both HBr and KOH are used up in the reaction, which leaves only the product,KBr and H2O.
The pH here is greater than 7
(C). [NH4^+] = 0.20 mol L^-1 × 50 ml. L^-1 ÷ 50 mL + 50mL
= 0.10 M
Ka=Kw/kb
10^-14/ 1.8× 10^-5
Ka= 5.56 ×10^-10
Therefore, ka= x^2 / 0.20
5.56e-10 = x^2/0.20
x= (0.20 × 5.56e-10)^2
x= 1.05 × 10^-5
pH = -log [H+]
pH= - log[1.05 × 10^-5]
pH = 4.98
Acidic(less than 7)
(c). 0.5 × 20/40
= 0.25 M
Ka= Kw/kb
kb= 10^-14/1.8× 10^-5
Kb = 5.56×10^-10
x= (5.56×10^-10 × 0.5)^2
x= 1.667×10^-5 M
pH will be basic
