140 s. It would take 140 s to swim 0.150 mi .

<em>Step 1</em>. Convert the <em>time to seconds</em>

Time = 14 min × (60 s/1 min) + 34.56 s = 840 s + 34.56 s = 874.56 s

<em>Step 2</em>. Convert <em>miles to metres </em>

Distance = 0.150 mi × (1609.3 m/1 mi) = 241.4 m

<em>Step 3.</em> Calculate the <em>time to swim 241.4 m</em>

Time = 241.4 m × (874.56 s/1500 m) = 140 s

(<em>As of 2012, the men’s freestyle record for 1500 m was 14:31.02</em>.)

The Ka for formic acid (HCO2H) is 1.8 × 10-4. What is the pH of a 0.35 M aqueous solution of sodium formate (NaHCO2)?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

9.36

Explanation:

Sodium formate is the conjugate base of formic acid.

Also,

K_a\times K_b=K_w

K_b for sodium formate is K_b=\frac {K_w}{K_a}

Given that:

K_a of formic acid = 1.8\times 10^{-4}

And, K_w=10^{-14}

So,

K_b=\frac {10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-4}}

K_b=5.5556\times 10^{-11}

Concentration = 0.35 M

HCOONa    ⇒     Na⁺ +    HCOO⁻

Consider the ICE take for the formate  ion as:

                                   HCOO⁻ + H₂O   ⇄   HCOOH + OH⁻

At t=0                              0.35                            -              -

At t =equilibrium           (0.35-x)                          x           x            

The expression for dissociation constant of sodium formate is:

K_{b}=\frac {[OH^-][HCOOH]}{[HCOO^-]}

5.5556\times 10^{-11}=\frac {x^2}{0.35-x}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.44×10⁻⁵  M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.44×10⁻⁵) = 4.64

pH + pOH = 14

So,

<u>pH = 14 - 4.64 = 9.36</u>

A blacksmith heated an iron bar to 1445 °C. The blacksmith then tempered the metal by dropping it into 42,800 mL of
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

6626 g

Explanation:

Given that:

Density of water = 1.00 g/ml, volume of water = 42800 ml.

Since density = mass/ volume

mass of water = volume of water * density of water = 42800 ml * 1 g/ml = 42800 g

Initial temperature of water = 22°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

specific heat capacity for water = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT water = 45 - 22 = 23°C

For iron:

mass = m,  

specific heat capacity for iron  = 0.444 J/g°C

Initial temperature of iron = 1445°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

ΔT iron = 45 - 1445 = -1400°C

Quantity of heat (Q) to raised the temperature of a body is given as:

Q = mCΔT

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of water is equal to the temperature loss by the iron.

Q water (gain) + Q iron (loss) = 0

Q water = - Q iron

42800 g ×  4.184 J/g°C × 23°C = -m × 0.444 J/g°C × -1400°C

m = 4118729.6/621.6

m = 6626 g
