Answer: A.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is due to the position of an object above Earth's surface. The object has the potential to fall due to gravity. Gravitational potential energy depends on an object's weight and its height above the ground (GPE = weight x height).

Weight= Mass

Height= Height

What is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite? (Ka HNO2 = 4.5 x 10−4 )

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

11.9 is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite.

Explanation:

Solution : Given,

Concentration (c) = 0.150 M

Acid dissociation constant = $k_a=4.5\times 10^{-4}$

The equilibrium reaction for dissociation of $HNO_2$ (weak acid) is,

$HNO_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NO_2^-+H_3O^+$

initially conc. c 0 0

At eqm. $c(1-\alpha)$ $c\alpha$ $c\alpha$

First we have to calculate the concentration of value of dissociation constant $(\alpha )$ .

Formula used :

$k_a=\frac{(c\alpha)(c\alpha)}{c(1-\alpha)}$

Now put all the given values in this formula ,we get the value of dissociation constant $(\alpha )$ .

$4.5\times 10^{-4}=\frac{(0.150\alpha)(0.150\alpha)}{0.150(1-\alpha)}$

$4.5\times 10^{-4} - 4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha =0.150\alpha ^2$

$0.150\alpha ^2+4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha-4.5\times 10^{-4}=0$

By solving the terms, we get

$\alpha=0.0533$

No we have to calculate the concentration of hydronium ion or hydrogen ion.

$[H^+]=c\alpha=0.150\times 0.0533=0.007995 M$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (0.007995 M)$

$pH=2.097\approx 2.1$

pH + pOH = 14

pOH =14 -2.1 = 11.9

Therefore, the pOH of the solution is 11.9

A chemist has to prepare 250.0 mL of a 0.300 M Na2SO4(aq) solution. What mass, in grams, of sodium sulfate (formula mass 142.05

Sedbober [7]

The mass of sodium sulphate, Na₂SO₄, required to prepare the solution is 10.65 g

<h3>How to determine the mole of sodium sulphate Na₂SO₄</h3>

Volume = 250 mL = 250 / 1000 = 0.25 L
Molarity = 0.3 M

Mole of Na₂SO₄ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of Na₂SO₄ = 0.3 × 0.25

Mole of Na₂SO₄ = 0.075 mole

<h3>How to determine the mass of sodium sulphate Na₂SO₄</h3>

Molar mass of Na₂SO₄ = 142.05 g/mol
Mole of Na₂SO₄ = 0.075 mole

Mass of Na₂SO₄ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Na₂SO₄ = 0.075 × 142.05

Mass of Na₂SO₄ = 10.65 g

Thus, 10.65 g of Na₂SO₄ is needed to prepare the solution.

Gold has a density of about 20g/mL. If I measured out 2mL of gold, I would expect it to have a mass of about ___ grams.

yan [13]

The answer is 40 grams. If gold is 20 grams per mL and you have 2 mLs, you get 40 grams of gold. Just add 20 + 20 or multiply 2 x 20 to get 40.
