Explanation:

Let the reaction equation for the dissociation of weak acid is as follows.

                      HA \rightarrow H^{+} + A^{-}

Initial:         0.87            0         0

Change:      -x               +x         +x

Equilibrium:  0.87 - x    +x         +x

Hence, expression for the dissociation constant will be as follows.

           k_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}][A^{-}]}{[HA]}

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        k_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}][A^{-}]}{[HA]}

       4.3 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{x \times x}{(0.187 - x)}

               x = 0.000283

Hence, at equilibrium the concentration of hydrogen ions is 0.000283.

or,     [H^{+}] = 2.83 \times 10^{-4}

            [H^{+}] = C \times \alpha

Also,   \alpha = \frac{[H^{+}]}{C}

                      = \frac{0.000283}{0.187}

                      = 0.00151

And, the percentage of dissociation is 0.00151 \times 100 = 0.151%

Thus, we can conclude that percent dissociation of given weak acid is 0.151%.

labwork [276]

Answer:

The solution of the given system is (x,y) = (1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given system of equation is:

x  = -3 + y

26 x - 5 y =  6

Now, substitute x  = -3 + y in the second equation , we get

26 x - 5 y =  6  ⇒   26 (-3 + y) - 5 y =  6

or, 26(-3)  + 26(y)  - 5y = 6

⇒ - 78 + 26 y - 5y = 6

⇒   21 y =  84

⇒  y = 84 / 21 = 4   or ,   y =  4

So x  = -3 + y  =  -3 + 4 = 1

Hence, the solution of the given system is (x,y) = (1,4)

Work out the value of: 3x + 2y when x equals -3 and y equals -4
Mazyrski [523]

replace the numbers given for x & y so

the equation becomes 3*(-3) + 2*(-4) =

3*-3 = -9

2*-4 = -8

-9 + -8 = -17
