Answer : The H_3O^+ ion concentration is, 1.12\times 10^{-3}M and the pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Explanation : Given,

K_a=7.1\times 10^{-4}

Concentration of HNO_2 (weak acid)= 0.26 M

Concentration of KNO_2 (conjugate base or salt)= 0.89 M

First we have to calculate the value of pK_a.

The expression used for the calculation of pK_a is,

pK_a=-\log (K_a)

Now put the value of K_a in this expression, we get:

pK_a=-\log (7.1\times 10^{-4})

pK_a=4-\log (7.1)

pK_a=3.15

Now we have to calculate the pH of the solution.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[KNO_2]}{[HNO_2]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=3.15+\log (\frac{0.89}{0.26})

pH=2.95

The pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Now we have to calculate the H_3O^+ ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H_3O^+]

2.95=-\log [H_3O^+]

[H_3O^+]=1.12\times 10^{-3}M

The H_3O^+ ion concentration is, 1.12\times 10^{-3}M

prohojiy [21]

Explanation:

A point of temperature at which both solid and liquid state of a substance remains in equilibrium without any change in temperature then this temperature is known as melting point.

For example, melting point of water is 0 ^{o}C. So, at this temperature solid state of water and liquid state are present in equilibrium with each other.

Therefore, when a 100 g of given pure metal in solid state is heated at its exact melting point which is 215^{o}C then some of the solid will change into liquid state but the temperature will remains the same.

fiasKO [112]
Answer : Option A) 4.0 X 101 m^{3} 

Explanation : As per the measurement chart the greatest metric system is measured in meters.

So the rest values are given in the form of metric values which are obviously less than that of meters. values of centimeters, decimeter and millimeters are less than that of meters.

Need help ASAP!! Full paragraph! Will give Brainliest!!
Amanda [17]

Answer:

All elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons. This made it possible to compare the valence of the alien elements to the valence of elements from our periodic table, and match the alien elements to the correct group. For example, our group 14 elements all have 4 valence electrons, so the alien element with 4 valence electrons had to be part of group 14 also.
