Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

um equation.
CO2(g) <----> CO2(aq) The acid dissociation constants listed in most standard reference texts for carbonic acid actually apply to dissolved CO2. K=0.032 M/atm
For a CO2 partial pressure of 4.4×10-4 atm in the atmosphere, what is the pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere?
Note: Since carbonic acid is primarily dissolved CO2, the concentration of H2CO3 can be taken as equal to that of dissolved CO2.
My online homework is due tonight and I am hopelessly lost on how to solve this problem. :(

C = pK 
<span>C = 4.4E-4*0.032 = about 1.41E-5 </span>

<span>H2CO3 ==> H^+ + HCO3^- </span>

<span>k1 = (H^+)(HCO3^-)/(H2CO3) </span>
<span>(H^+)= (HCO3^-) = x </span>
<span>(H2CO3) = 1.41E-5 </span>
<span>Solve for x = (H^+) and convert to pH. </span>

What is the [H+] of a solution with a pH of 9.40?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

a) 3.98 x 10^-10

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given pH, we can compute the concentration of hydronium by using the following formula:

pH=-log([H^+])

Hence, solving for the concentration of hydronium:

[H^+]=10^{-pH}=10^{-9.40}\\

[H^+]=3.98x10^{-10}M

Therefore, answer is a) 3.98 x 10^-10

Best regards.

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473mL. What is the new pressure of gas?
Ratling [72]

Hello!

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473 mL. What is the new pressure of gas?

  • <u><em>We have the following data:</em></u>

Vo (initial volume) = 1.00 L  

V (final volume) = 473 mL → 0.473 L  

Po (initial pressure) = 1 atm (pressure exerted by the atmosphere - in STP)  

P (final pressure) = ? (in atm)

  • <u><em>We have an isothermal transformation, that is, its temperature remains constant, if the volume of the gas in the container decreases, so its pressure increases. Applying the data to the equation Boyle-Mariotte, we have:</em></u>

P_0*V_0 = P*V

1*1 = P*0.473

1 = 0.473\:P

0.473\:P = 1

P = \dfrac{1}{0.473}

\boxed{\boxed{P \approx 2.11\:atm}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\green{\checkmark}

<u><em>Answer:  </em></u>

<u><em>The new pressure of the gas is 2.11 atm  </em></u>

What are the products of this reaction? (High temperature)<br> Na2SO4 * 10H2O + C —&gt; ????
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

A chemical equation can be described as a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction. It can be written in the form of words or symbols.

The following chemical reaction can be completed as :

Na2SO4·10H2O + 2C = Na2S + 10H2O + 2CO2

Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate + Diamond = Sodium Sulfide + Water + Carbon Dioxide

The products of the reaction are:

  • Sodium Sulfide (Na2S)
  • Water (H2O)
  • Carbon dioxide (CO2)
