Answer:

2.6

Explanation:

Benzoic acid is a weak acid that dissociates according to the following equation.

C₆H₅COOH(aq) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

We can calculate the equilibrium concentration of H⁺ using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ka × Ca)

where,

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Ca is the initial concentration of the acid

[H⁺] = √(6.5 × 10⁻⁵ × 0.10) = 2.5 × 10⁻³

The pH is

pH = -log [H⁺] = - log 2.5 × 10⁻³ = 2.6

What kind of questions CANNOT be answered by chemistry?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

d. why matter exists

Explanation:

The kind of questions that chemistry CANNOT answer is "why matter exists".

In Chemistry, question of how the properties, composition and structure of substances are is answered. Also, the transformations that these substances undergo, and the energy that they release or absorbe during the transformation processes are revealed in chemistry.

Chemistry can answer the question of what forms of matter exists but cannot answer why matter actually exists.

Which gas below has the largest number of moles at STP?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a.) 22.4 L Ne.

Explanation:

It is known that every 1.0 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L.

For the options:

  • 22.4 L Ne:

<em>It represents </em><em>1.0 mol of Ne.</em>

<em />

  • 20 L Ar:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol occupies → 20 L.

The no. of moles of (20 L) Ar = (1.0 mol)(20 L)/(22.4 L) = 0.8929 mol.

  • 2.24 L Xe:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol occupies → 2.24 L.

<em>The no. of moles of (2.24 L) Xe </em>= (1.0 mol)(2.24 L)/(22.4 L) = <em>0.1 mol.</em>

  • So, the gas that has the largest number of moles at STP is: a.) 22.4 L Ne.
