pH indicator. A dye that is an acid and that appears as different colors in its protonated and deprotonated forms can be used as

a pH indicator. Suppose that you have a 0.001 M solution of a dye with a p Ka of 7.2. From the color, the concentration of the protonated form is found to be 0.0002 M. Assume that the remainder of the dye is in the deprotonated form. What is the pH of the solution? Berg, Jeremy M.. Biochemistry (p. 24). W. H. Freeman. Kindle Edition.

Answer:

pH = 7.8

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation may be used to solve the problem:

pH = pKa + log([A⁻] / [HA])

The solution of concentration 0.001 M is a formal concentration, which means that it is the sum of the concentrations of the different forms of the acid. In order to find the concentration of the deprotonated form, the following equation is used:

[HA] + [A⁻] = 0.001 M

[A⁻] = 0.001 M - 0.0002 M = 0.0008 M

The values can then be substituted into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = 7.2 + log(0.0008M/0.0002M) = 7.8

Why does styrofoam fall slower than a rock
mina [271]

Answer:

The foam board has a larger gravitational force but it also has a very large air resistance force. The net (total) force on the foam board will give it a smaller acceleration than paper.

Explanation:

The air molecules get knocked away and take some of the kinetic energy away from the object, which makes the object slow down

Based on table N of the reference tables what is the number of hours required for 42k (potassium -42) to undergo three half-life
skelet666 [1.2K]

The number of hours required : 37.2 hours

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

⁴²K (potassium -42)

Required

The number of hours

Solution

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

Based on Table N(attached), the half-life for ⁴²K is 12.4 hours, which means half of a sample of ⁴²K will decay in 12.4 hours

For three half-life periods :

\tt 3\times 12.4=37.2~hours

B) How does electron gain enthalpy change along a period and in a group?​
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Electron gain enthalpy becomes more and more negative from left to right in a period. As we move across a period from left to right the atomic size decreases and the nuclear charge increases
