Answer:

The correct answer is: Ka= 5.0 x 10⁻⁶

Explanation:

The ionization of a weak monoprotic acid HA is given by the following equilibrium: HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻. At the beginning (t= 0) we have 0.200 M of HA. Then, a certain amount (x) is dissociated into H⁺ and A⁻, as is detailed in the following table:

               HA               ⇄        H⁺        +          A⁻

t= 0      0.200 M                     0                     0

t              -x                             x                       x

t= eq      0.200M -x               x                       x

At equilibrium, we have the following ionization constant expression (Ka):

Ka= \frac{ [H^{+}]  [A^{-} ]}{ [HA]}

Ka= \frac{x x}{0.200 M -x}

Ka= \frac{x^{2} }{0.200 M - x}

From the definition of pH, we know that:

pH= - log  [H⁺]

In this case, [H⁺]= x, so:

pH= -log x

3.0= -log x

⇒x = 10⁻³

We introduce the value of x (10⁻³) in the previous expression and then we can calculate the ionization constant Ka as follows:

Ka= \frac{(10^{-3})^{2}  }{0.200 - (10^{-3}) }= \frac{10^{-6} }{0.199}= 5.025 x 10⁻⁶= 5.0 x 10⁻⁶

During cellular respiration, plants take in _______ from the air and break down stored _______.
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

During cellular respiration, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and break down stored glucose.

Explanation:

Before cellular respiration takes place in a plant, photosynthesis occurs and absorbs sunlight and carbon dioxide from the air. The process then produces oxygen and glucose, which are needed as the reactants for cellular respiration. Cellular respiration will break down the stored glucose to make energy to produce carbon dioxide and water. Then the cycle repeats itself.

1. To calculate the molarity of a solution, you need to know the moles of solute and the
evablogger [386]

Answer:

O volume of the solution

Explanation:

Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume of solution  in L

For example:

if we dissolve the 1 mole of NaCl to make the solution of volume 2 L. The molarity of solution is,

M = 1 mol / 2 L

M = 0.5 M

In a study of the following reaction at 1200 K it was observed that when the equilibrium partial pressure of water vapor is 15.0
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The value of K_p for this reaction at 1200 K is 4.066.

Explanation:

Partial pressure of water vapor at equilibrium = p^o_{H_2O}=15.0 Torr

Partial pressure of hydrogen gas at equilibrium = p^o_{H_2}=?

Total pressure of the system at equilibrium P = 36.3 Torr

Applying Dalton's law of partial pressure to determine the partial pressure of hydrogen gas at equilibrium:

P=p^o_{H_2O}+p^o_{H_2}

p^o_{H_2}=P-p^o_{H_2O}=36.3 Torr- 15.0 Torr = 21.3 Torr

3 Fe(s) 4 H_2O(g)\rightleftharpoons Fe_3O_4(s) 4 H_2(g)

The expression of K_p is given by:

K_p=\frac{(p^o_{H_2})^4}{(p^o_{H_2O})^4}

K_p=\frac{(21.3 Torr)^4}{(15.0 Torr)^4}=4.066

The value of K_p for this reaction at 1200 K is 4.066.
