The question is incomplete, complete question is :

Determine the pH of an HF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying assumption that x is small? (K_a for HF is 6.8\times 10^{-4}.)

[HF] = 0.280 M

Express your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.

Explanation:3

Initial concentration if HF = c = 0.280 M

Dissociation constant of the HF = K_a=6.8\times 10^{-4}

HF\rightleftharpoons H^++F^-

Initially

c          0            0

At equilibrium :

(c-x)      x             x

The expression of disassociation constant is given as:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}

6.8\times 10^{-4}=\frac{x^2}{(0.280 M-x)}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.01346 M

So, the concentration of hydrogen ion at equilibrium is :

[H^+]=x=0.01346 M

The pH of the solution is ;

pH=-\log[H^+]=-\log[0.01346 M]=1.87

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.

Answer:

q = 14049 J

Explanation:

q = m*c*(t2-t1)

q = 350 * 0.892 * (70-25) =

312.2 * 45 = 14049 J

I might be getting a little confused but I could be right.

Hope this helps!

Which is the correct complete ionic equation for the reaction of
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)

Explanation:

The equation is given as;

2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) + H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq)

In writing an ionic equation, only the aqueous compounds dissociates into ions. This means HCl and ZnCl2 would dissociate to form ions.

This is given as;

2H+  +  2Cl-  + Zn(s) --> H2(g) + Zn2+  + 2Cl-

The correct option is;

b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
