Answer:

Ka = 1.52 E-5

Explanation:

  • CH3-(CH2)2-COOH ↔ CH3(CH2)2COO-  + H3O+

⇒ Ka = [H3O+][CH3)CH2)2COO-] / [CH3(CH2)2COOH]

mass balance:

⇒<em> C</em> CH3(CH2)2COOH = [CH3(CH2)2COO-] + [CH3(CH2)2COOH] = 1.0 M

charge balance:

⇒ [H3O+] = [CH3(CH2)2COO-]

⇒ Ka = [H3O+]²/(1 - [H3O+])

∴ pH = 2.41 = - Log [H3O+]

⇒ [H3O+] = 3.89 E-3 M

⇒ Ka = (3.89 E-3)² / ( 1 - 3.89 E-3 )

⇒ Ka = 1.519 E-5

a 10.99g sample of NaBr contains 22.34% Na by mass. Considering the law of constant composition (define proportions), how many g
leonid [27]

Given :

A 10.99 g sample of NaBr contains 22.34% Na by mass.

To Find :

How many grams of sodium does a 9.77g sample of sodium bromine contain.

Solution :

By law of constant composition , in any given chemical compound, the elements always combine in the same proportion with each other.

Therefore , percentage of Na by mass in NaBr will be same for every amount .

Percentage of Na in 9.77 g NaBr is 22.34 % too .

Gram of Na = 9.77\times \dfrac{22.34}{100}=2.18\ g .

Hence , this is the required solution .
