Explanation:

Ka is the acid dissociation constant. pKa is simply the -log of this constant.

Mathematically;

pKa = - log Ka

Ka = 10^-pKa

a. acid a has a pka of 6.0 what is its ka?

Ka = 10^-6 = 10⁻⁶

b. acid b has a pka of 8.60 whats its ka?

Ka = 10^-8.6 = 2.51e⁻⁹

c. acid c has a pka of -2.0 whats its ka?

Ka = 10^-(-2) = 10^2 = 100

Based on the molecular formula, determine whether each compound is an alkane, alkene, or alkyne. (Assume that the hydrocarbons a
topjm [15]

Answer:

a. alkyne

b. alkane

c. alkyne

d. alkene

Explanation:

The general formula for each class of compound is given below

Alkane: C_nH_{2n+2}

Alkene: C_nH_{2n}

Alkyne: C_nH_{2n-2} (assuming single multiple bonds)

Now let us classify according to the above formulas:

a. It has two hydrogen atoms less than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkyne

b. It has two hydrogen atoms more than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkane

c. It has two hydrogen atoms less than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkyne

d. It has hydrogen atoms two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkene

What evidence did wegener use to create his theory of continental drift?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Wegener used fossil evidence to support his continental drift hypothesis. The fossils of these organisms are found on lands that are now far apart. Grooves and rock deposits left by ancient glaciers are found today on different continents very close to the equator.
