Anna71 [15]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:10,0000 years

Explanation:

If it takes 2000 years to weather 1cm of limestone

It will take 5*2000 years to weather 5cm of limestone. This gives us 10000 years.

The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate buffer will be useful from pH values ________. The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The usefulness of a buffer is its ability to resist changes in pH when small quantities of base or acid are added to it. This ability is the consequence of having both the conjugate base and the weak acid present in solution which will consume the added base or acid.  

This capacity is lost if the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of weak acid differ by an order of magnitude. Since  buffers having ratios differing by more will have their pH driven by either the weak acid or its conjugate base .

From the Henderson-Hasselbach equation we have that

pH = pKa + log [A⁻]/[HA]

thus

0.1 ≤  [A⁻]/[HA] ≤ 10

Therefore the log of this range is -1 to 1, and the pH will have a useful range of within +/- 1 the pKa of the buffer.

Now we are equipped to answer our question:

pH range = 3.9 +/- 1 = 2.9 through 4.9

What purpose does fecl3 serve in the electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction between chlorine and benzene?
maria [59]
The reason does FeCl3 serve in the electrophilic sweet-smelling substitution response amongst chlorine and benzene is that it fills in as a Lewis corrosive impetus by responding with the Cl2 and along these lines actuates it toward assault by benzene's π electrons.

If you have 16 g of manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate, how much water is required to prepare 0.16 M solution from this amount
nirvana33 [79]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of water required is 398 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

We are given:

Mass of solute (manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate) = 16 g

Molar mass of manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate = 251 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.16 M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.16M=\frac{16g\times 1000}{251g/mol\times \text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=398mL

Hence, the volume of water required is 398 mL

A biochemical reaction will proceed in the direction as written if:_______a. ΔG &gt; 0.b. ΔH &gt; 0.c. ΔG = zero.d. ΔG &lt; 0.e.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

ΔG < 0

Explanation:

The condition for spontaneity of a chemical reaction is that ∆G<0. Hence for any biochemical reaction to proceed as written, ∆G must have a negative value.

If ∆G >0, the reaction is not spontaneous and will not proceed as written. ∆G=0 means that the reaction has attained equilibrium.
