Given the reaction:

1 answer:

4 0

The conductivity would decrease because the concentration of ions decreases.

As barium hydroxide, a solution is added to sulphuric acid, the Barium ions replace the hydrogen ions to form a precipitate. An insoluble solid doesn't contribute ions and as such the forming of the solid barium hydroxide would mean a decrease in the concentration of the ions.

Describe what occurs when a gas is collected by water displacement, including why a table of water vapor pressure values is need

Radda [10]

When a gas bubbles through water, small droplets of water are usually picked up along for the ride and are mixed in with the gas above the water inside the eudiometer tube. The water vapor takes up room, but isn't the important gas that you need to measure. The table of water vapor is needed to subtract the unwanted water vapor from the collection of gases.

Using the systematic approach for equilibrium problems, calculate the pH of 0.05 M HOCl. Ka= 3.0*10-8 Group of answer choices 3.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The pH is equal to 4.41

Explanation:

Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:

HClO ⇄ ClO- + H+

start: 0.05 0 0

change -x +x +x

balance 0.05-x x x

As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.

the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:

$Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}$

The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

$3x10^{-8}=\frac{x^{2} }{0.05}$

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:

$x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]$

the pH can be calculated by:

$pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41$

9. For each reaction listed, identify the proton donor (or acid) and the proton acceptor(or base).

Talja [164]

Answer:

Explanation:

conjugate acid, based on Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, is a chemical compound that is formed by the reception of a proton by a base

a. CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ H₃0⁺ + CH₃C00-

Acid <> CH₃COOH

Base <> H₂O

Conjugate acid <> H₃0 +

Conjugate base <>CH₃C00-

b. HCO₃ + H₂O ⇌ H₂CO₃⁻ + OH⁻

Acid <> H₂O

Base <> HCO₃

Conjugate acid <> H₂CO₃⁻

Conjugate base <>OH⁻

C. HNO₃ + SO₄²⁻ ⇌ HSO₄⁻ + NO₃⁻

Acid <>HNO₃

Base <>SO₄²⁻

Conjugate acid <>HSO₄⁻

Conjugate base <>NO₃⁻

A Bronsted acid is reffered to as a proton donor while a Bronsted base is a proton acceptor
