If the Ka of a monoprotic weak acid is 5.4 × 10-6, what is the pH of a 0.25 M solution of this acid?

The first step is to write the balanced equation of the dissociation of the monoprotic weak acid. This can be assumed to have 1:1 stoichiometric relationships, so the equation and ICE chart are given by:

                          HA ---> H^+ + A^-
initial                 0.25       0          0
change               -x         x           x
equilibrium    0.25-x       x           x

This gives an expression for Ka given by:

Ka = (x)^2/(0.25-x) = 5.4x10^-6
x = 1.159x10^-3 = [H+] = [A-]

pH = -log[H+] = -log[1.159x10^-3] = 2.936

A sample of gas occupies 7.80 liters at 425°C? What will be the volume of the gas at 35°C if the pressure does not change?
balandron [24]
From ideal gas equation PV = nRT, V/T = nR/P ==> V/T = constant. Therefore V1/T1 = V2/T2 ==> 7.8/698 = V2/308. V = 3.44L {TEMPERATURE IN KELVIN = 273 + 425 AND 35 = 698 AND 308}

A student explained to the class that helium has 8 valence electrons because it is in group 18. Is the student correct?
lys-0071 [83]
<span>The student is incorrect because helium has 2 valence electrons and it's in group 18 because the first energy level is full. Although helium is placed in Group 18 which generally has 8 valence electrons, it does not have 8 valence electrons as the student suggested. It was grouped together with the noble gases because it exhibits similar properties with them. </span>

Sodium chloride can be produced by the reaction of sodium metal with chlorine gas. Which is the limiting reactant if 6.70 moles
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Chlorine gas.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl

Thus, given the moles of reacting both sodium and chlorine, we compute the moles of sodium chloride yielded by each reactant by considering the 2:2 and 1:2 mole ratios:

n_{NaCl}^{by\ Na}=6.70molNa*\frac{2molNaCl}{2molNa}=6.70molNaCl \\\\n_{NaCl}^{by\ Cl_2}=3.20molCl_2*\frac{2molNaCl}{1molCl_2}=6.40molNaCl

Thus, since chlorine yields less moles of sodium chloride, we infer it is the limiting reactant.

Best regards!
