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

What is the net charge of C
sashaice [31]

Explanation:

Sorry, I don't know, but I can tell you that when an atom, or a body, has the same amount of positive charges (protons) and negative charges (electrons), it is said to be electrically neutral. ... The net charge corresponds to the algebraic sum of all the charges that a body possesses.

heated blocks of iron used to be warm bed. A 1600g brick of iron heated to 155c would release how many joules of heat energy as
omeli [17]
We are going to use this formula : 

Q = M*C*ΔT

when Q is the heat released by the material in J 

and M is the mass in gram = 1600 g 

C is the specific heat capacity of iron = 0.4494 J/g

and ΔT is the changing in temperature = 155 - 25 = 130 °C

So by substitution:

∴ Q = 1600 g * 0.4494 J/g * 130 °C

       = 93475 J

∴ The amount of heat released in Joule = 93475 J
