Answer:

1.76

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>A chemist dissolves 660.mg of pure hydroiodic acid in enough water to make up 300.mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

Step 1: Calculate the molarity of HI(aq)

M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution

M = 0.660 g / 127.91 g/mol × 0.300 L

M = 0.0172 M

Step 2: Write the acid dissociation reaction

HI(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)

HI is a strong acid, so [H⁺] = 0.0172 M

Step 3: Calculate the pH

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 0.0172

pH = 1.76

The pH of a 0.150 molar solution of a weak acid is 4.10. What is the pKa of the acid?
Kamila [148]
Answer: 4.21×10⁻⁸

Explanation:


1) Assume a general equation for the ionization of the weak acid:

Let HA be the weak acid, then the ionization equation is:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

2) Then, the expression for the ionization constant is:

Ka = [H⁺][A⁻] / [HA]

There, [H⁺] = [A⁻], and [HA] = 0.150 M (data given)


3) So, you need to determine [H⁺] which you do from the pH.

By definition, pH = - log [H⁺]

And from the data given pH = 4.1


⇒ 4.10 = - log [H⁺] ⇒ [H⁺] = antilog (- 4.10) = 7.94×10⁻⁵

4) Now you have all the values to calculate the expression for Ka:

ka = 7.94×10⁻⁵ × 7.94×10⁻⁵ / 0.150 = 4.21×10⁻⁸

The compound trimethylamine, (CH3)3N, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibr
Zina [86]

Answer:

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction of trimethylamine when it is dissolved in water is:

C₃H₉N  +  H₂O ⇄ C₃H₉NH⁺ + OH⁻   Kb

1 mol of trimethylamine catches a proton from the water in order to produce trimethylamonium.

It is a base, because it give OH⁻ to the medium

Expression for Kb (Molar concentration)

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

Because of the mud in the muddy water eventually settles out the muddy water is a ____________.
sp2606 [1]

it should be B. solution; a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

witch basically means it sorts it self out when left a lone, like soap and water when not touched or the oil in the dressings you get at the store. hope this helped :D
