The stronger the acid the lower the pH, because pH = log { 1 / [H+]}. You can discard easily the options B and C because they are organic acid which are relatively weak. To compare properly the inorganic acids you should use a Ka or pKa table. You can predict that HPO4 (2-) is less strong because the third dissociation is weaker the first. So, you should only need to search for the Ka or pKa of HNO2 and HNO3. Every one who is familiar with the stronger acids knows that HNO3 is one of the strongest acid, stronger indeed than HNO2. So, the strongest acid of the list is HNO3 and it has the lowest pH. <span>Answer: option D. 1.0 M HNO3.</span>

Pick the correct statement for the following isotope: a. 42Ca 42 is the mass number and 20 is the atomic number. b. 42 is the nu
kramer

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To label an element correctly using a combination of the symbol, mass number and atomic number furnishes some important information about the element.

We can obtain these information from the element provided that correct labeling of the element is presented. Firstly, after writing the symbol of the element, the atomic number is placed as a subscript on the left while the mass number of the atomic mass is placed as a superscript on the same left.

Looking at the question asked, we have the element symbol in the correct position as Ca, with 42 also in the correct position which is the mass number. The third number which is 20 is thus the atomic number of the element.

Calculate the pH of a solution that is 0.210 M in nitrous acid (HNO2) and 0.290 M in potassium nitrite (KNO2). The acid dissocia
jeka94

Answer:

pH = 3.49

Explanation:

We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HNO₂) and its conjugate base (NO₂⁻ coming from KNO₂). We can calculate the pH  of a buffer ssytem using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [base] / [acid]

pH = -log Ka + log [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = -log 4.50 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.290 M / 0.210 M

pH = 3.49
