You can determine an element based on its protons due to the atomic number.
Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom and you can locate it on your periodic table as the number above the letter. Each element has a different number of protons and because of that you can find the element on the periodic table based on its atomic number.
Explanation:
This is correct!
Ions that exist in both the reactant and product side of the equation are referred to as spectator ions. Overall, they do not partake in the reaction. If they are present on both sides of the equation, you can cancel them out.
An example is;
Na+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) + NO3−(aq) → Na+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + AgCl(s)
The ions; Na+, NO3−(aq) would be cancelled out to give;
Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) → AgCl(s)
Answer:
Dissociated state is the predominant one
Explanation:
When a molecule with pKa of 4.52 is in an aqueous solution at pH = 4.0, follows the H-H equation, thus:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
<em>Where [A⁻] is the dissociated state and [HA] represents the protonated state</em>
Replacing:
4.0 = 5.2 + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
-1.2 = log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
0.063 = [A⁻] / [HA]
[HA] = 16 [A⁻]
That means you have 16 times more [HA] than [A⁻] and the <em>dissociated state is the predominant one</em>
