Why are the marked lines on a beaker like this useful for measuring the volume of a liquid? A liquid maintains its shape in the

beaker, so the beaker can measure the liquid’s height, and the height cubed equals the liquid’s volume. A liquid conforms to the circular area of the beaker, and this area multiplied by the liquid’s height equals its volume. A liquid is usually made of neutral atoms, and the beaker does not add or remove energy from the atoms, thereby preventing ionization. A liquid is compressible, but since the beaker does not have a top on it, the liquid will maintain its same volume THE ANSWER IS (B)

Answer : Option B) <span>A liquid conforms to the circular area of the beaker, and this area multiplied by the liquid’s height equals its volume.

Explanation : When a liquid is poured into a beaker the liquid takes the internal shape of the beaker which is circular in shape, according to the markings on the beaker one can measure approx quantity of fluid required and perform the experiment. The area of circular of the beaker when multiplied with height of liquid gives the total volumes of fluid present in it.

How does the abundance of various isotopes affect the atomic mass?
eduard

solution:

The quoted atomic mass on the Periodic Table is the WEIGHTED average of the individual isotopic masses. The higher the isotopic percentage, the MORE that isotope will contribute to the isotopic mass. For this reason, most masses that are quoted on the Table are non-integral.

By way of example we could look to the hydrogen atom. The VAST majority of hydrogen atoms (in this universe) are the protium isotope. i.e. 1H, whose nuclei contain JUST the defining proton. There is a smaller percentage (>1%) of hydrogen atoms WITH one NEUTRON in their nuclei to give the deuterium isotope. i.e. 2H, and because this is relatively cheap, and easily incorporated into a molecule, deuterium labelling is routinely used in analysis.

And there is even a smaller percentage of hydrogen atoms with TWO NEUTRONS in their nuclei, to give the tritium isotope. i.e. 3H. The weighted average of the isotopic percentages gives 1.00794⋅g⋅mol^{−1}

Consider the pka (3.75) of formic acid, h-cooh as a reference. with appropriate examples, show how inductive, dipole, and resona
Luden [163]
Formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid with a structure of HCOOH and has a pka of 3.75. The pka refers to the acidity of the molecule, which in this example refers to the molecules ability to give up the proton of the O-H. A decrease in the pka value corresponds to an increase in acidity, or an increase in the ability to give up a proton. When an acid gives up a proton, the remaining anionic species (in this case HCOO-) is called the conjugate base, and an increase in the stability of the conjugate base corresponds to an increase in acidity.

The pka of a carboxylic can be affected greatly by the presence of various functional groups within its structure. An example of an inductive effect changing the pka can be shown with trichloroacetic acid, Cl3CCOOH. This molecule has a pka of 0.7. The decrease in pka relative to formic acid is due to the presence of the Cl3C- group, and more specifically the presence of the chlorine atoms. The electronegative chlorine atoms are able to withdraw the electron density away from the oxygen atoms and towards themselves, thus helping to stabilize the negative charge and stabilize the conjugate base. This results in an increase in acidity and decrease in pka.

The same Cl3CCOOH example can be used to explain how dipoles can effect the acidity of carboxylic acids. Compared to standard acetic acid, H3CCOOH with a pka of 4.76, trichloroacetic acid is much more acidic. The difference between these structures is the presence of C-Cl bonds in place of C-H bonds. A C-Cl bond is much more polar than a C-H bond, due the large electronegativity of the chlorine atom. This results in a carbon with a partial positive charge and a chlorine with a partial negative charge. In the conjugate base of the acid, where the molecule has a negative charge localized on the oxygen atoms, the dipole moment of the C-Cl bond is oriented such that the partial positive charge is on the carbon that is adjacent to the oxygen atoms containing the negative charge. Therefore, the electrostatic attraction between the positive end of the C-Cl dipole and the negative charge of the anionic oxygen helps to stabilize the entire species. This level of stabilization is not present in acetic acid where there are C-H bonds instead of C-Cl bonds since the C-H bonds do not have a large dipole moment.

To understand how resonance can affect the pka of a species, we can simply compare the pka of a simple alcohol such as methanol, CH3OH, and formic acid, HCOOH. The pka of methanol is 16, suggesting that is is a very weak acid. Once methanol gives up that proton to become the conjugate base CH3O-, the charge cannot be stabilized in any way and is simply localized on the oxygen atom. However, with a carboxylic acid, the conjugate base, HCOO-, can stabilize the negative charge. The lone pair electrons containing the charge on the oxygen atom are able to migrate to the other oxygen atom of the carboxylic acid. The negative charge can now be shared between the two electronegative oxygen atoms, thus stabilizing the charge and decreasing the pka.
