Determine y for the following equation: log(9/8)=y

1 answer:

8 0

Log(x) can mean log to the base ten (especially in highschool) or natural log (in college).

So solving for y in log(9/8)=y is just an evaluation of log(9/8).

Either
$y=log_{10}(9/8)=0.05115$ to 5 decimals, or
$y=log_{e}(9/8)=0.11778$ to 5 decimals
depending the context of the question.

In an acid-base titration, a student uses 21.35 mL of 0.150 M NaOH to neutralize 25.00 mL of H2SO4. How many moles of acid are i

GalinKa [24]

Answer: There are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 21.35 mL, $M_{1}$ = 0.150 M

$V_{2}$ = 25.0 mL, $M_{2}$ = ?

Formula used to calculate molarity of $H_{2}SO_{4}$ is as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\0.15 M \times 21.35 mL = M_{2} \times 25.0 mL\\M_{2} = 0.1281 M$

As molarity is the number of moles of a substance present in a liter of solution.

Total volume of solution = $V_{1} + V_{2}$

= 21.35 mL + 25.0 mL

= 46.36 mL (1 mL = 0.001 L)

= 0.04636 L

Therefore, moles of acid required are calculated as follows.

$Molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{Volume (in L)}\\0.1281 M = \frac{no. of moles}{0.04635 L}\\no. of moles = 0.006 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

During photosynthesis, how many moles of water (H₂O) are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose

Nuetrik [128]

During photosynthesis, 5 moles of water are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is photosynthesis?</h3>

It is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water.

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for photosynthesis.

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

Step 2: Convert 150 g of C₆H₁₂O₆ to moles.

The molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ is 180.16 g/mol.

150 g × 1 mol/180.16 g = 0.833 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of water required to form 0.833 moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar ratio of H₂O to C₆H₁₂O₆ is 6:1.

0.833 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ × 6 mol H₂O/1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ = 5.00 mol H₂O

During photosynthesis, 5 moles of water are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose. The correct option is D.

Determine the pH of 0.050 M HCN solution. HCN is a weak acid with a Ka equal to 4.9 x 10-10<br> DONE

nadezda [96]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 5.31.

Explanation:

Let " $\alpha$ is the dissociation of weak acid - HCN.

The dissociation reaction of HCN is as follows.

$HCN+H_{2}O\rightarrow H_{3}O^{+}+CN^{-}$

Initial C 0 0

Equilibrium c(1- $\alpha$ ) c $\alpha$ c $\alpha$

Dissociation constant = $Ka= c\alpha \times \frac{c\alpha}{c(1-\alpha)}$

$=\frac{c\alpha^{2}}{(1-\alpha)}$

In this case weak acids $\alpha$ is very small so, (1- $\alpha$ ) is taken as 1.

$Ka=C\alpha^{2}$

$\alpha=\sqrt\frac{ka}{c}$

From the given the concentration = 0.050 M

Substitute the given value.

$\alpha=\sqrt\frac{4.9\times 10^{-10}}{0.05}=9.8\times 10^{-4}$

$[H_{3}O^{+}]=c\alpha$

$[H_{3}O^{+}]=0.05\times 9.8\times 10^{-4}= 4.9\times10^{-6}$

$pH= -log[H_{3}O^{+}]$

$=-log[4.9\times10^{-6}]$

$=6-log 4.9= 5.31$

Therefore, The pH of the solution is 5.31.
