What happens to the chemical identity of a substance during a physical change?

Nothing happens because a physical change only changes the appearance of the substance, whereas a chemical change transforms the substance into something completely different.
i.e. (chemical change) wood + fire = ash
(physical change) wood + axe = smaller pieces of wood

Use the following information to calculate the concentration, Ka and pka for an unknown monoprotic weak acid. (8 pts.) 20.00 mL
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Concentration: 0.185M HX

Ka = 9.836x10⁻⁶

pKa = 5.01

Explanation:

A weak acid, HX, reacts with NaOH as follows:

HX + NaOH → NaX + H2O

<em>Where 1 mole of HX reacts with 1 mole of NaOH</em>

To solve this question we need to find the moles of NaOH at equivalence point (Were moles HX = Moles NaOH).

18.50mL = 0.01850L * (0.20mol / L) = 0.00370 moles NaOH = Moles HX

In 20.0mL = 0.0200L =

0.00370 moles HX / 0.0200L = 0.185M HX

The equilibrium of HX is:

HX(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + X⁻(aq)

And Ka is defined as:

Ka = [H⁺] [X⁻] / [HX]

<em>Where [H⁺] = [X⁻] because comes from the same equilibrium</em>

As pH = 2.87, [H+] = 10^-pH = 1.349x10⁻³M

Replacing:

Ka = [H⁺] [H⁺] / [HX]

Ka = [1.349x10⁻³M]² / [0.185M]

Ka = 9.836x10⁻⁶

pKa = -log Ka

<h3>pKa = 5.01</h3>

What are molecules, and how are the properties of molecules different from the atoms they come from? Give an example.
goldenfox [79]

Molecule, a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.

While Atoms are single neutral particles,

Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.

Exaplmes for molecules

H2O (water)

N2 (nitrogen)

O3 (ozone)

CaO (calcium oxide)

C6H12O6 (glucose, a type of sugar)

NaCl (table salt

And examples for atoms

Neon (Ne)

Hydrogen (H)

Argon (Ar)

Iron (Fe)

Calcium (Ca)

Deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron.

Plutonium (Pu)

F-, a fluorine anion.
