You are given two unknown acids, HX and H2Y, and two values for Ka, 1x10^-7 and 1x10^9. You know that X is a much more electrone

gative atom than Y. Which Ka value goes with which acid? 1. Choice (1) HX has a Ka of 1x10-7 and H2Y has a Ka of 1x10 2. Choice (2) HX has a Ka of 1x109 and H2Y has a Ka of 1x107 Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

.

Explanation

In HX , X is more electronegative than Y so HX will ionise more because of  ionic bond between H and X . On the other hand H₂Y will be less polar as compared to HX so it will ionise to a lesser extent . Hence Ka will be more for HX . Ka represents the degree of ionisation of acid . Higher the ionisation , higher is the value of Ka . H₂Y which is less polar will ionise less and hence it will have lesser value of Ka .

Hence H₂Y will have value of 10⁻⁷ and HX will have value of ka equal to 10⁹ .

What does Le Châtelier's principle state?
Rudiy27

Answer:

B. A reaction at equilibrium will respond to balance a change.

Explanation:

The Le Chatelier's principle states that a reaction will respond to balance a change. This is true for a reaction in chemical equilibrium.

Le Chatelier's principle sates that "if any conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed, the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".

  • It explains the effect of applying stress on any system in equilibrium.
  • The changing conditions are usually concentration, temperature and pressure.
  • If the stress due to any of them is applied to a system in equilibrium, the equilibrium will respond in the directions which counteracts the effect of the stress.
