Answer:
A) All the elements are composed of atoms.
d) Atoms cannot be created or destroyed in any chemical changes.
c) An atom of one element cannot be changed into an atom of a different element.
Explanation:
The main postulates of Dalton atomic theory was:
1) The matter is composed of atoms and atom is indivisible particle which can not be destroyed.
2) The atoms of an element are identical.
3) The atoms of different elements are combining with definite proportion and form compounds.
4) The atoms of different elements are different from each other.
5) During chemical reaction rearrangement of atoms occur and form new compounds.
Answer:
The Ka is 9.11 *10^-8
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: </u>Data given
Moles of HX = 0.365
Volume of the solution = 835.0 mL = 0.835 L
pH of the solution = 3.70
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate molarity of HX
Molarity HX = moles HX / volume solution
Molarity HX = 0.365 mol / 0.835 L
Molarity HX = 0.437 M
<u />
<u>Step 3:</u> ICE-chart
[H+] = [H3O+] = 10^-3.70 = 1.995 *10^-4
Initial concentration of HX = 0.437 M
Initial concentration of X- and H3O+ = 0M
Since the mole ratio is 1:1; there will react x M
The concentration at the equilibrium is:
[HX] = (0.437 - x)M
[X-] = x M
[H3O+] = 1.995*10^-4 M
Since 0+x = 1.995*10^-4 ⇒ x=1.995*10^-4
[HX] = 0.437 - 1.995*10^-4 ≈ 0.437 M
[X-] = x = 1.995*10^-4 M
<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate Ka
Ka = [X-]*[H3O+] / [HX]
Ka = ((1.995*10^-4)²)/ 0.437
Ka = 9.11 *10^-8
The Ka is 9.11 *10^-8
Your answer is A my friend as the atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of protons
