Answer:

pH = 3.49

Explanation:

We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HNO₂) and its conjugate base (NO₂⁻ coming from KNO₂). We can calculate the pH  of a buffer ssytem using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [base] / [acid]

pH = -log Ka + log [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = -log 4.50 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.290 M / 0.210 M

pH = 3.49

Write your question here (Keep it simple and clear to get the best answer) calculate the atomic weight of a metal when 125ml of
lana [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 24.32 g

Explanation:

Data

Atomic weight = ?

HCl volume = 125 ml

Molarity = 0.2

mass of metal = 0.304 g

Balanced chemical equation

                       M + 2HCl   ⇒  MCl₂  +  H₂

Process

1.- Calculate the moles of HCl

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

- Solve for moles

  moles = Molarity  x volume

  moles = 0.2 x 0.125

             = 0.025

2.- Calculate the moles of the Metal

                1 mol of M ----------------- 2 moles of HCl

                x                ----------------- 0.025 moles of HCl

                x = (0.025 x 1) / 2

                x = 0.0125 moles of HCl

3.- Calculate the atomic weight of the metal

                atomic weight ---------------- 1 mol

               0.304 g             ---------------0.0125 moles

               Atomic weight = (1 x 0.304) / 0.0125

               Atomic weight = 24.32 g

Which of the statements below correctly describes the chair conformations of trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane? A. The higher energy
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

D. The higher energy chair conformation contains two axial methyl groups.

Explanation:

The diaxial trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane has the highest energy (the least stable) and the diequatorial chair conformation has the lowest energy (the most stable).

The diaxial conformation has a higher energy due to the interaction between the methyl groups.

Base your answers to questions 69 through 72 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.
evablogger [386]
Hydrazine has a higher boiling point than water because hydrazine exhibits a stronger intermolecular forces than water. Although both compounds exhibit hydrogen bonding which is a strong intermolecular force resulting to a high boiling point, hydrogen bonding is stronger in hydrazine. This is because in a hydrazine molecule, there are two atoms of nitrogen available for hydrogen bonding as compared to water which has only 1 oxygen atom for hydrogen bonding.

Which practice does the Montreal Protocol aim to reduce?
PolarNik [594]
Ozone which is present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere is helpful for preventing harmful UV rays from reaching the surface of earth. Due to human activity, several compounds  (specifically chlorofluorocarbons) are released in atmosphere. Due to inherent chemical stability of these compounds, the remain stable in lower region of atmosphere and slowly diffuse into stratosphere. On reaching the stratosphere, these compounds reacts with ozone and thereby depletes the effective concentration of ozone present in atmosphere. Hence, <span>the Montreal Protocol was signed in 1987 by major countries of the world. This aim of this protocol was to protect the stratospheric ozone layer by phasing out the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances.</span>

_Al(NO3)3 +_(NH4)3 P04_AlPO4+_ NH, NO3<br>balancing equations​
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Al(NO₃)₃ + (NH₄)₃PO₄ —> AlPO₄ + 3NH₄NO₃

The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1, 3

Explanation:

__Al(NO₃)₃ + __(NH₄)₃PO₄ —> __AlPO₄ + __NH₄NO₃

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

Al(NO₃)₃ + (NH₄)₃PO₄ —> AlPO₄ + NH₄NO₃

There are 12 atoms of H on the left side and 4 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before NH₄NO₃ as shown below:

Al(NO₃)₃ + (NH₄)₃PO₄ —> AlPO₄ + 3NH₄NO₃

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1, 3
