Answer : The acid dissociation constant Ka of the acid is, 8.7\times 10^{-5}

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of hydrogen ion.

pH=-\log [H^+]

Given: pH = 4.06

4.06=-\log [H^+]

[H^+]=8.71\times 10^{-5}M

The dissociation of acid reaction is:

                         HA\rightarrow H^++A^-

Initial conc.      c        0         0

At eqm.           c-cα    cα       cα

Given:

Degree of dissociation = α = 0.10 % = 0.001

[H^+]=c\alpha

8.71\times 10^{-5}=c\times 0.001

c=0.0871M

The expression of dissociation constant of acid is:

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

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

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_a=\frac{(0.0871\times 0.001)\times (0.0871\times 0.001)}{(0.0871-0.0871\times 0.001)}

K_a=8.7\times 10^{-5}

Thus, the acid dissociation constant Ka of the acid is, 8.7\times 10^{-5}

How does the sun heat<br> the side of the Earth<br> facing away from it?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The sun radiates energy in all directions.

Explanation:

Most of it dissipates into space, but the tiny fraction of the sun's energy that reaches Earth is enough to heat the planet and drive the global weather system by warming the atmosphere and oceans

A pharmaceutical company is making a large volume of nitrous oxide (NO). They predict they will be able to make a maximum amount
iragen [17]

Answer:

The answer is "Option B"

Explanation:

From the query, the following knowledge is derived:  

Yield in percentage = 47%  

Performance of theory = 4860 g  

Actual yield Rate =?  

The percentage return is defined simply by the ratio between both the real return as well as the conceptual return multiplied by the 100. It's also represented as numerically:

Rate = \frac{Existing \ Rate} {Theoretical \ Rate} \times 100

Now We can obtain the percent yield as followed using the above formula:  

\text{Yield in percentage}= \frac{Actual \ yield \ Rate} {Theorical \ Rate} \times  100

47\% = \frac{Actual \ yield \ Rate}{4860}

The value of the Actual yield Rate =47\% \times 4860

                                                        = \frac{47}{100} \times 4860 \\\\ = 2284.2 g

The Actual yield Rate= 2284.2 g.
