Answer:

21.60% is the percent ionization of a 0.123 M solution of this acid.

Explanation:

The equilibrium reaction for dissociation of weak acidis,

HA\rightleftharpoons A^-+H^+

initially conc.         c                       0         0

At eqm.         c(1-\alpha )                  c\alpha     c\alpha  

Concentration of the weak acid (c) = 0.123 M

Acid dissociation constant = k_a=0.00732

Degree of ionization of weak acid = \alpha

An expression of dissociation constant is given as:

k_a=\frac{(c\alpha)(c\alpha)}{c(1-\alpha )}=\frac{c\times (\alpha )^2}{(1-\alpha )}

0.00732=\frac{0.123 M\times (\alpha )^2}{(1-\alpha )}

\alpha =0.2160

Percent ionization of weak acid:

\% ionization=\frac{c\alpha }{c}\times 100

\frac{0.123 M\times 0.2160}{0.123 M}\times 100=21.60\%

Calculate the percentage by mass of the indicated element in the following compounds. Hydrogen in ascorbic acid, HC6H7O6, also k
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: The mass percent of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %

Explanation:

In C_6H_8O_6, there are 6 carbon atoms, 8 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.

To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of ascorbic acid}}\times 100

Mass of hydrogen = 8\times 1g/mol=8g

Molar Mass of ascorbic acid =6\times 12g/mol+8\times 1g/mol+6\times 16g/mol=176g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{8g}{176}\times 100=4.5\%

Hence, the mass percent of of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %.

kirill115 [55]
For stainless steel different kinds of compositions are used. Based on that different series of stainless steel has been coined.
1. Series 200 - Iron alloyed with <span>chromium, nickel and manganese.
2. Series 300 - It has 
a. Stainless Steel 304 - it has composition of 18% chromium and 8% Nickel
b. </span>Stainless Steel 316 - This has 18% chromium and 10% Nickel

Each kind of stainless steel is of different cost and has different applications.
