To determine the Ka of the acid, we can use the equation for the pH of weak acids which is expressed as:

pH = -0.5 log Ka
2.67 = -0.5 log Ka
Ka = 4.571x10^-6

Weak acids are acids that do not dissociate completely in solution. The solution would contain the cations, anions and the acid itself as a compound. Hope this helps.

Answer:

Ka=1.53x10^-5

Explanation:

Since it is a <u>weak acid</u> it is necessary to write the balance. Where the unknown acid will be HA.

HA\hspace{0.1cm}A^- \hspace{0.1cm}+\hspace{0.1cm}H^+.

Then with the equilibrium we can write the ICE table (figure 1).

Where we obtain the equation:

Ka=\frac{X*X}{0.3-X} =\frac{X^2}{0.3-X}

Now, we have to find "X". To do this we can use the <u>pH</u> equation and the <u>pH value</u>:

pH=-Log\hspace{0.1cm}H^+

-pH=Log\hspace{0.1cm}H^+

10^-pH=H^+

10^-2.67=H^+

H^+=0.00213

X=0.00213

Then we have to plug the values in the <u>Ka equation</u>:

Ka=\frac{(0.00213)^2}{0.3-0.00213}

Ka=1.53x10^-5

Answer:

2Mg+O_{2} \rightarrow 2MgO

Explanation:

<u>Synthesis reaction:</u>

In the synthesis reaction, two reactants combined to form a single product.

For example,

"A" and "B" are two reactants then combined to form a "AB" product.

The chemical reaction is as follows.

A+B \rightarrow AB

The product "MgO" is formed by magnesium reacts with oxygen to form Magnesium oxide.
