Answer:

Ka = 1.39x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

A monoprotic acid, HX, will be in equilibrium in an aqueous medium such as:

HX(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + X⁻(aq)

<em>Where Ka is:</em>

Ka = [H⁺] [X⁻] / [HX]

<em>Where [] is the molar concentration in equilibrium of each specie. </em>

The equilibrium is reached when some HX reacts producing H+ and X-, that is:

[HX] = 1.64M - X

[H⁺] = X

[X⁻] = X

As pH is 2.82 = -log [H⁺]:

[H⁺] = 1.51x10⁻³M:

[HX] = 1.64M - 1.51x10⁻³M = 1.638M

[H⁺] = 1.51x10⁻³M

[X⁻] = 1.51x10⁻³M

And Ka is:

Ka = [1.51x10⁻³M] [1.51x10⁻³M] / [1.638M]

<h3>Ka = 1.39x10⁻⁶</h3>

A runner wants to run 13.1 km . She knows that her running pace is 6.2 mi/h .How many minutes must she run? Hint: Use 6.2 mi/h a
frutty [35]

Answer:

  • <u>79 minutes</u>

Explanation:

1)<u> Convert the distance, 13.1 km to miles</u>

  • Conversion factor:

        1 = 1 mi / 1.61 km

  • 13.1 km [ 1 mi /  1.61 km ] = 8.1336 mi

2)<u> Use 6.2 mi/h as a converstion factor between distance and time</u>

  • 8.1366 mi × 1 / [6.2 mi/h] = 1.3124 h

3) <u>Convert 1.3124 h to minutes</u>

  • 1.3124 h × [ 60 min/h] = 78.7 min

Rounding to the nearest minutes (two significant figures):

  • 79 min ← answer

Calculate the molarity of 13.1 g of NaCl in 727 mL of solution
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution is 0,31 M

Explanation:

We calculate the weight of 1 mol of NaCl from the atomic weights of each element of the periodic table. Then, we calculate the molarity, which is a concentration measure that indicates the moles of solute (in this case NaCl) in 1000ml of solution (1 liter)

Weight 1 mol NaCl= Weight Na + Weight Cl= 23 g + 35, 5 g= 58, 5 g

58, 5 g-----1 mol NaCl

13,1 g ---------x= (13,1 g x 1 mol NaCl)/58, 5 g= 0, 224 mol NaCl

727 ml solution------ 0, 224 mol NaCl

1000ml solution------x= (1000ml solutionx0, 224 mol NaCl)/727 ml solution

x=0,308 mol NaCl---> <em>The solution is 0,31 molar (0,31 M)</em>
