What is the pH of a solution obtained by dissolving two extra-strength aspirin tablets, containing 470 mg of acetylsalicylic aci

Answer:

2.58

Explanation:

Each tablet has a mass of 470 mg. The mass of 2 tablets is 2 × 470 mg = 940 mg = 0.940 g

The molarity of acetylsalicylic acid (aa) is:

M = mass of aa / molar mass of aa × liters of solution

M = 0.940 g / 180.16 g/mol × 0.240 L

M = 0.0217 M

Acetylsalicylic acid is a weak acid, so we can find [H⁺] using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka)

where,

Ca: concentration of the acid

Ka: acid dissociation constant

[H⁺] = √(0.0217 × 3.24 × 10⁻⁴)

[H⁺] = 2.65 × 10⁻³ M

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 2.65 × 10⁻³ = 2.58

What are the first two quantum numbers for the electrons located in subshell 4d?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

n = 4, l = 2

Explanation:

The number 4 in 4d is the principal quantum number (n).

The letter d in 4d tells us that we have a d orbital, as determined by the <em>secondary quantum number (l</em>).

The quantum number l tells us the shape of the orbital.

l = 0     s orbital

l = 1      p orbital

l = 2     d orbital

What is the standard enthalpy of a reaction for which the equilibrium constant is (a) doubled, (b) halved when the temperature i
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a) 48KJ

b) -48KJ

Explanation:

Given that;

ln(K2/K1) = ΔH°/R(1/T2 - 1/T1)

K2= equilibrium constant at T2

K1 = equilibrum constant at T1

R = gas constant

T1 = initial temperature

T2 = final temperature

When we double the equilibrium constant K1; K2 = 2K1

T1 = 310 K

T2 = 310 + 15 = 325 K

ln(2K1/K1) =- ΔH°/R(1/T2 - 1/T1)

ln2 = -ΔH°/8.314(1/325 - 1/310)

0.693 = -ΔH°/8.314(3.08 * 10^-3 - 3.2 * 10^-3)

0.693 = -ΔH°/8.314 (-0.00012)

0.693 = 0.00012ΔH°/8.314

0.693 * 8.314 = 0.00012ΔH°

ΔH° = 0.693 * 8.314/0.00012

ΔH° = 48KJ

b) K2 =K1/2

ln(K1/2/K1) =- ΔH°/R(1/T2 - 1/T1)

ln (1/2) = -ΔH°/8.314 (1/325 - 1/310)

-0.693 = -ΔH°/8.314  (-0.00012)

-0.693 = 0.00012ΔH°/8.314

-0.693 * 8.314 = 0.00012ΔH°

ΔH°= -0.693 * 8.314/0.00012

ΔH°= -48KJ

Explain how a heater warms the air in a room, including the words density, volume, and temperature in your explanation
seropon [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Convection currents are created when the air above your radiator heats and then cools and is then heated again. This process happens continuously whilst you have your heating on and the current moves the heat around the room making it nice and warm and toasty.
