Answer is: Ka for propanoic acid is 6,57·10⁻⁵.
Chemical reaction: C₂H₅COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₂H₅COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).
n(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,04 mol.
V(C₂H₅COOH) = 750 mL = 0,75 L.
c(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,04 mol ÷ 0,75 L.
c(C₂H₅COOH) = 0,053 mol/L = 0,053 M.
[C₂H₅COO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 1,84·10⁻³ M = 0,00184 M.<span>
[HCN] = 0,053 M - 0,00184 M = 0,0515 M.
Ka = [</span>C₂H₅COO⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [C₂H₅COOH].
Ka = (0,00184 M)² / 0,0515 M.
Ka = 6,57·10⁻⁵.

What volume of carbon dioxide, at 1 atm pressure and 112°C, will be produced when 80.0 grams of methane is burned?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

158 L.

Explanation:

What is given?

Pressure (P) = 1 atm.

Temperature (T) = 112 °C + 273 = 385 K.

Mass of methane CH4 (g) = 80.0 g.

Molar mass of methane CH4 = 16 g/mol.

R constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K.

What do we need? Volume (V).

Step-by-step solution:

To solve this problem, we have to use ideal gas law: the ideal gas law is a single equation which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of an ideal gas. The formula is:

PV=nRT.

Where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the constant and T is temperature.

So, let's find the number of moles that are in 80.0 g of methane using its molar mass. This conversion is:

80.0g\text{ CH}_4\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol CH}_4}{16\text{ g CH}_4}=5\text{ moles CH}_4.

So, in this case, n=5.

Now, let's solve for 'V' and replace the given values in the ideal gas law equation:

V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{5\text{ moles }\cdot0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol\cdot K}\cdot385K}{1\text{ atm}}=158.04\text{ L}\approx158\text{ L.}

The volume would be 158 L.

Copper has a specific heat of 0.385 J/gºC.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The final temperature is 348.024°C.

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of copper = 0.385 j/g.°C

Energy absorbed = 7.67 Kj (7.67×1000 = 7670 j)

Mass of copper = 62.0 g

Initial temperature T1 = 26.7°C

Final temperature T2 = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

Q = m.c. ΔT

7670 J = 62.0 g × 0.385  j/g °C ×( T2- 26.7 °C )

7670 J = 23.87 j.°C ×( T2- 26.7 °C )

7670 J / 23.87 j/°C = T2- 26.7 °C

T2- 26.7 °C = 321.324°C

T2 = 321.324°C + 26.7 °C

T2 = 348.024°C

The final temperature is 348.024°C.

Describe the relationship between the substrate and the product
il63 [147K]

A simple chemical reaction with a single substrate shows a linear relationship between the rate of formation of product and the concentration of substrate, as shown below: ... The relationship between rate of reaction and concentration of substrate depends on the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate.

If the solubility of KCl in 100 mL of H₂O is 34 g at 20 °C and 43 g at 50 °C, label each of the following solutions as unsaturat
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

a) Unsaturated

b) Supersaturated

c) Unsaturated

Explanation:

A saturated  solution contains the <u>maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given  solvent at a specific temperature</u>.

An unsaturated solution contains <u>less solute than it  has the capacity to dissolve. </u>

A supersaturated solution, <u>contains more  solute than is present in a saturated solution</u>. Supersaturated solutions are not very  stable. In time, some of the solute will come out of a supersaturated solution as crystals.

According to these definitions and considering that the solubility of KCl in 100 mL of H₂O at <u>20 °C is 34 g</u>, and at <u>50 °C is 43 g</u> we can label the solutions:

a) 30 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 20 °C  ⇒ unsaturated

b) 65 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C  ⇒ supersaturated

c) 42 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C and slowly cooling to 20 °C to give a clear solution <u>with no precipitate</u> ⇒ unsaturated (if it were saturated it would have had precipitate)
