Given :
Number of molecules of
.
To Find :
How many moles are in given number of molecules.
Solution :
We know, in 1 moles of any element/compound contains
at atoms/molecules.
So, number of moles in
molecules are :

Therefore, number of moles are 8.97 .
The given above pretty much states already that with the presence of the calcium carbonate which acts as the buffer will allow the solution to withstand changes in acidity. The greater the amount, the higher chances that it will be able to withstand the said changes. Therefore, if Lake X had greater ppm of CaCO3 then, it will be able to withstand greater amount of acid rain.
Limestone and marble are the two rocks that are easily weathered by carbonic acid. Two kinds of weathering mostly affect the rocks. and they are physical weathering and chemical weathering. The above mentioned two rocks are highly affected by carbonic acid. The appeareance of these kind of rocks change their structure due to erosion very regularly. Caronation is the type of chemical weathering that affects the rocks limestone and marble. The carbonic acide is formed by the reaction of carbon dioxide in the air and water in the rivers. This carbonic acid results in weathering.
Answer:
b) 3.10
Explanation:
HF ⇄ H
+ + F
Using Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:
pH = pKa + log [A-]/[HA].
Where;
pKa = Dissociation constant = -log Ka
Hence, pKa of HF = -log 7.2 x 10^-4 = 3.14266
[A-] = concentration of conjugate base after dissociation = moles of base/total volume
= 0.15 x 0.3/0.8
= 0.05625 M
[HA] = concentration of the acid = moles of acid/total volume
= 0.10 x 0.5/0.8
= 0.0625 M
Note: <em>Total volume = 500 + 300 = 800 mL = 0.8 dm3</em>
pH = 3.14266 + log [0.05625/0.0625]
= 3.14267 + (-0.04575749056)
= 3.09691250944
<em>From all the available options below:</em>
<em>a) 2.97
</em>
<em>b) 3.10
</em>
<em>c) 3.19
</em>
<em>d) 3.22
</em>
<em>e) 3.32</em>
The correct option is b.
