Answer:

Work done by the system = 4545 J

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of work done is shown below as:

w=-P\times \Delta V

Where, P is the pressure

\Delta V is the change in volume

From the question,  

\Delta V = 45 - 15 L = 30 L

P = 1.5 atm

w=-1.5\times 30\ atmL

Also, 1 atmL = 101 J

So,  

w=-1.0\times0.75\times 101\ J=-4545\ J (negative sign implies work is done by the system)

<u>Work done by the system = 4545 J</u>

Determine the pHpH of an HFHF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying
PIT_PIT [208]

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

Determine the pH of an HF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying assumption that x is small? (K_a for HF is 6.8\times 10^{-4}.)

[HF] = 0.280 M

Express your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.

Explanation:3

Initial concentration if HF = c = 0.280 M

Dissociation constant of the HF = K_a=6.8\times 10^{-4}

HF\rightleftharpoons H^++F^-

Initially

c          0            0

At equilibrium :

(c-x)      x             x

The expression of disassociation constant is given as:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}

6.8\times 10^{-4}=\frac{x^2}{(0.280 M-x)}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.01346 M

So, the concentration of hydrogen ion at equilibrium is :

[H^+]=x=0.01346 M

The pH of the solution is ;

pH=-\log[H^+]=-\log[0.01346 M]=1.87

The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.
