Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

um equation CO2(g) CO2(aq) K=0.032 The acid dissociation constants listed in most standard reference texts for carbonic acid actually apply to dissolved CO2. For a CO2 partial pressure of 1.9x10-4 bar in the atmosphere, what is the pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere? (For carbonic acid Ka1 = 4.46x10-7 and Ka2 = 4.69x 10-11).

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)

Calculate the amount of CO_{2} dissolved as follows.

             CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}

It is given that K_{CO_{2}} = 0.032 M/atm and P_{CO_{2}} = 1.9 \times 10^{-4} atm.

Hence, [CO_{2}] will be calculated as follows.

           [CO_{2}] = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}          

                           = 0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm

                           = 0.0608 \times 10^{-4}

or,                        = 0.608 \times 10^{-5}

It is given that K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}

As,      K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}

          4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}  

               [H^{+}]^{2} = 2.71 \times 10^{-12}

                      [H^{+}] = 1.64 \times 10^{-6}

Since, we know that pH = -log [H^{+}]

So,                      pH = -log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})

                                 = 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

What happens when nitrogen fills its valence shell?
Sauron [17]
The right answer is D. three electrons are gained, creating N-3

Nitrogen has 5 electrons in it's valence shell and octet rule states that the valence shell must have 8 electrons. To satisfy that, Nitrogen gains 3 electrons that are negatively charged.Therefore, it gets a negative charge.

V = d/t
dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Did you mean: V = d/t a = (V - Vit Average = (V+ + V)/2 with constant acceleration d = Vit + 2 at? Vi = (V2 + 2ad)1/2 =VV2 + 2ad A stick figure throws a ball straight up into the air at 5 m/s. g = -9.81 m/s2 1. How long does it take to reach the top? 2. How long does it take to come back to the level of release? 3. If the hand is 1 m from the ground, how long will it take to hit the ground if the ball is not caught? 4. How high is the ball at the top from the ground? 5. What is the displacement of the ball, if it is caught on return? 6. What is the displacement of the ball to the top from release? 7. What is final velocity when you catch the ball on return to your hand? 8. What is the final velocity as it hits the ground? 9. What is the velocity at the top?

Showing results for V = d/t a = (V - Vil/t Vaverage = (V+ + V)/2 with constant acceleration d = Vit + 2 at? Vi = (V2 + 2ad)1/2 =VV2 + 2ad A stick figure throws a ball straight up into the air at 5 m/s. g = "-9.81" m/s2 1. How long does it take to reach the top? 2. How long does it take to come back to the level of release? 3. If the hand is 1 m from the ground, how long will it take to hit the ground if the ball is not caught? 4. How high is the ball at the top from the ground? 5. What is the displacement of the ball, if it is caught on return? 6. What is the displacement of the ball to the top from release? 7. What is final velocity when you catch the ball on return to your hand? 8. What is the final velocity as it hits the ground? 9. What is the velocity at the top?

Search instead for V = d/t a = (V - Vil/t Vaverage = (V+ + V)/2 with constant acceleration d = Vit + 2 at?

Which layer is the oldest layer? How can you tell? ​
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The principle of superposition states that the oldest rock units are at rock bottom , and therefore the youngest are at the highest . Based on this, layer C is oldest, followed by B and A. So the full sequence of events is as follows: Layer C formed.
