Answer:

Ka = 4.04 \times 10^{-11}

Explanation:

Initial concentration of weak acid = 4.5 \times 10^{-4}\ M

pH = 6.87

pH = -log[H^+]

[H^+]=10^{-pH}

[H^+]=10^{-6.87}=1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M

HA dissociated as:

HA \leftrightharpoons H^+ + A^{-}

(0.00045 - x)    x     x

[HA] at equilibrium = (0.00045 - x) M

x = 1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M

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

Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 - 0.000000135}

0.000000135 <<< 0.00045

Therefore, Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 } = 4.04 \times 10^{-11}

What volume, in milliliters, of a 0.140 M solution of KCl contains 2.65 g of the compound?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Calculate moles KCl: 2.55 g / 74.55 g/mol = 0.0342 moles KCl

Volume KCl = 0.0342 mol X (1 L/0.150 mol) = 0.228 L X 1000 mL/L = 228 mL

What would you multiply "grams of barium" by to get the units "moles of barium" ?
solmaris [256]
Moles = weight in grams / molecular weight.

So I would divide the "grams of barium" by its molecular weight (which is 137.3) to get "moles of barium". :)
