Explanation:
Since HF is a weak acid, the use of an ICE table is required to find the pH. The question gives us the concentration of the HF.
HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−
Initial0.3 M-0 M0 MChange- X-+ X+XEquilibrium0.3 - X-X MX M
Writing the information from the ICE Table in Equation form yields
6.6×10−4=x20.3−x6.6×10−4=x20.3−x
Manipulating the equation to get everything on one side yields
0=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−40=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−4
Now this information is plugged into the quadratic formula to give
x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√2x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)2
The quadratic formula yields that x=0.013745 and x=-0.014405
However we can rule out x=-0.014405 because there cannot be negative concentrations. Therefore to get the pH we plug the concentration of H3O+ into the equation pH=-log(0.013745) and get pH=1.86
Answer is: The total energy in the system remains the same as the decrease in chemical energy equals the increase in thermal and radiant energy.
The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed or transferred from one form (in this example chemical energy) to another (in this example thermal and radiant energy).
Radiant energy or light is the only kind of energy we can see with our eyes. Light have different wavelenght and different color.
Chemical energy - this type of energy is often found in things like batteries or food.
i can think of 3 subatomic particles found in a nucleus protons, neutrons, and electrons
For a hydrogen atom, composed of an orbiting electron bound to a nucleus of one proton, an ionization energy of 2.18 × 10−18 joule (13.6 electron volts) is required to force the electron from its lowest energy level entirely out of the atom.
