From the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, explain how the ratio [Al/[HA] changes with changing pH

Chemistry
1 answer:
Kryger [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The ratio [A-]/[HA] increase when the pH increase and the ratio decrease when the pH decrease.

Explanation:

Every weak acid or base is at equilibrium with its conjugate base or acid respectively when it is dissolved in water.

HA + H_{2}O ⇄ A^{-} + H_{3}O^{+}

This equilibrium depends on the molecule and it acidic constant (Ka). The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,

pH = pKa + Log \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

shows the dependency between the pH of the solution, the pKa and the concentration of the species. If the pH decreases the concentration of protons will increase and the ratio between A- and AH will decrease. Instead, if the pH increases the concentration of protons will decreases and the ratio between A- and AH will increase.

What are the magnitude (size) and direction of the cumulative force acting on the car shown in the picture A. 30 N to the right
UNO [17]

Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Total forces exerting on the car = F

F_r=50 N= Force on car exerting in right direction

F_l=20 N= Force on car exerting in left direction

F_u=2500 N= Force on car exerting in upward direction

F_d=2500 N= Force on car exerting in downward direction

F=F_r+F_l+F_u+F_d

(-F_u)=F_d (negative sign shows the direction)

Since, upward force are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction by which they will balance out each other.so, the net force car will be due to two forces F_r and F_l

F=F_r+F_l=50 N+(-20 N)=30 N(negative shows the direction)

The magnitude (size) and direction of the cumulative force acting on the car will 30 N towards right direction.Hence, correct answer is option(A).

The atomic mass and abundance of Cr-50 is 49.946 amu and 4.3%. The atomic mass and abundance of Cr-52 is 51.941 amu and 83.8%. T
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

52.00 AMU

Explanation:

(49.946 * 0.043) + (51.941 * 0.838) + (52.941 * 0.095) + (53.939 * 0.024) = 51.998

Make sure to round, 52.00 AMU.

Which is an example of chemical weathering?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

b. the layer of oxide formed on statues made of metal

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is a process whereby rocks are disintegrated or weathered causing a chemical reaction thereby leading to change in the parent rock constituents .

In chemical weathering a new substance is usually formed after the weathering takes place.

From the question the layer of statue made by metal will likely form oxides of those metals. Example Silver will react with oxygen to form an entirely new substance like silver(i)oxide.
