Consider that you have two solutions of acetic acid, Ka = 1.8x10-5, one solution that is 1.59 M and another solution that is 0.1

86 M. Compare the percent dissociation of acetic acid in these two solutions. What is the ratio of percent dissociation of the 1.59 M solution to the 0.186 M solution? (% dissociation of 1.59 M / % dissociation of 0.186 M) Enter your answer numerically to three significant figures.

Answer:

The ratio of percent dissociation of the 1.59 M solution to the 0.186 M solution: 0.343 : 1.

Explanation:

HAc\rightleftharpoons Ac^-+H^+

Initially c  

At equilibrium c-cα  cα cα

Dissociation constant of an acetic acid:

K_a=1.8\times 10^{-5}

Degree of dissociation = α

Dissociation constant of an acid is given by:

K_a=\frac{c\alpha \times c\alpha }{c(1-\alpha )}=\frac{c\alpha ^2}{(1-\alpha )}

1) Concentration of acid = c = [HAc] = 1.59 M

1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{c\alpha ^2}{(1-\alpha )}

Degree of dissociation = α

1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{1.59 M\alpha ^2}{(1-\alpha )}

\alpha =0.003359

Percentage of dissociation = 0.3359%

2) Concentration of acid = c' = [HAc] = 0.186 M

1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{c'(\alpha ')^2}{(1-\alpha ')}

Degree of dissociation = α'

\alpha '=0.009789

Percentage of dissociation = 0.9789%

The ratio of percent dissociation of the 1.59 M solution to the 0.186 M solution:

\frac{0.3359\%}{0.9789\%}=0.343

The equation for the synthesis of ammonia is below. How many moles of H 2 are
kkurt [141]

Moles of H₂ are needed to produce 9.33 moles of NH₃ : 13.995

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

The reaction coefficient in a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the reactants and products

Reaction for the synthesis of ammonia :

N₂+3H₂⇒2NH₃

moles of NH₃ = 9.33

From equation, mol ratio of H₂ : NH₃ = 3 : 2, so mol H₂ :

\tt =\dfrac{3}{2}\times 9.33\\\\=13.995

Both hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3)
faust18 [17]

Answer: The molar mass of H2S is greater than the molar mass of NH3, making the velocity and effusion rate of NH3 particles faster.

Effusion rate is inversely proportional to molar mass.

NH3 will have a higher average molecule velocity, so it will diffuse faster and will reach the other side of the room more quickly.
