The acid dissociation constant is defined as Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA] where [H+], [A-] and [HA] are the concentrations of protons, conjugate base, and acid in solution respectively. Assuming this is a weak acid as the pH is quite high for a 1.35 M solution, we can assume that the change in [HA] is negligible and therefore [HA] = 1.35 M.
To calculate [H+] we can use the relationship pH = -log[H+], rearranging to give: [H+] = 10^(-pH) = 10^(-2.93) = 1.17 x 10^(-3).
Since the acid is relatively concentrated we can assume therefore that       [H+] = [A-] as for each proton dissociated, a conjugate base is formed.
Therefore, we can calculate Ka as:
Ka = [H+]^2/[HA] = (1.17 x 10^-3 M)^2/1.35 = 1.01 x 10^-6 M

Describe two ways you think a sound wave could be stopped or could change change direction.
Alla [95]

Answer:

Like any wave, a sound wave doesn't just stop when it reaches the end of the medium or when it encounters an obstacle in its path. Rather, a sound wave will undergo certain behaviors when it encounters the end of the medium or an obstacle. Possible behaviors include reflection off the obstacle, diffraction around the obstacle, and transmission (accompanied by refraction) into the obstacle or new medium

How many atoms are in 5.2 moles of Na ?
Nastasia [14]

One mole of a substance is defined by Avogadro as consisting of 6.022 x 1023 atoms. This is Avogadro's number. To calculate the number of atoms in two moles of sodium, use dimensional analysis. 2.0 moles Na x 6.022⋅1023g1mol=1.20⋅1024 atoms of Na

what is the diffrence between displacement ans double displacement reactions write equations for these reactions
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Single Displacement reaction  

In a displacement reaction, a more reactive element replaces a less reactive element from a compound.

Change in colour takes place with no precipitate forms.

Metals react with the salt solution of another metal.

Examples:

2KI + Cl2 → 2KCl + I2

CuSO4 + Zn → ZnSO4 + Cu

Double displacement reaction

In a double displacement reaction, two atoms or a group of atoms switch places to form new compounds.

Precipitate is formed.

Salt solutions of two different metals react with each other.

Examples:  

Na2SO4 + BaCl2 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl

2KBr + BaCl2 → 2KCl + BaBr2
