             H₂CO₃ ⇔       HCO₃⁻   +     H⁺

I            0.160               0                 0

C            -x                  +x               +x

E          0.160-x          +x                +x

Ka1 = [HCO₃⁻][H⁺] / [H₂CO₃]

4.3 x 10⁻⁷ = x² / (0.160-x)   (x is neglected in 0.160-x = 0.160)

x² = 6.88 x 10⁻⁸

x = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴

             HCO₃⁻    ⇔            CO₃⁻²    +   H⁺

I          2.62 x 10⁻⁴               0                2.62 x 10⁻⁴

C          -x                            +x              +x

E       2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - x           +x              2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + x

Ka2 = [CO₃⁻²][H⁺] / [HCO₃⁻]

5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ = x(2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + x) / (2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - x)

x = 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹

Thus,

[H₂CO₃] = 0.160 - (2.62 x 10⁻⁴) = 0.16 M

[HCO₃⁻] = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - ( 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹) = 2.6 x 10⁻⁴ M

[CO₃⁻²] = 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ M

[H₃O⁺] = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ = 2.6 x 10⁻⁴ M

[OH⁻] = 3.8 x 10⁻¹¹

If you are given a 1.0 L (1000mL) of an unknown liquid which has the mass of 500 grams it is most likely which of the above subs
pantera1 [17]
Given in the problem is the mass of the liquid (500 grams) and the volume of the liquid (1000 ml = 1000 cm^3).

We can use these two givens to calculate the density of the liquid using the following rule:
density = mass / volume
density = 500 / 1000 = 0.5 grams / cm^3

Comparing the calculated density with the choices we have, we can deduce that the liquid is most likely to be propane with density 0.494 g / cm^3
