pH scale is used to measure the acidity or alkalinity on a scale of 0-14 where 0-6.9 is the acidic region , 7.1-14 is the basic region and 7 is for the neutral substance. We can calculate the concentration of proton from pH.

pH=-log[H^+]  

where [H^+] is the concentration of proton

As per the question ,the pH of coffee is 5.6 and we need to find the concentration of proton so putting the values in the above equation, we get

5.6=-log[H^+]

-5.6=log[H^+]

antilog(-5.6)= [H^+]

[H^+]= 2.511\times10^-^6 M

Write balanced chemical equations for the sequence of reactions that oxalic acid can undergo when it's dissolved in water.
Mashcka [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The balanced chemical equations are as follows:

The chemical formula of oxalic is  H_2C_2O_4

In the case when oxalic acts reacted with the water so here the oxalic acid eliminates one proton that leads to the development of mono acids

After that, the second step derives that when oxalic acid is in aqueous solution eliminates other proton so it represent the polyprotic acid

Now the chemical equations are as follows:

Elimination of one proton

H_2C_2O_4(aq)+H_2O(l)  \rightarrow H_2C_2O_4^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)

Now the elimination of other proton

HC_2O_4^-(aq)+H_2O(l)  \rightarrow C_2O_4^2^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 → Ca(H2PO4)2 + H2O
aniked [119]

Given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Balance the following equation:

H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + H_2O

Answer: The balanced chemical equation is as follows.

2H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + 2H_2O

Explanation:

When a chemical equation contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side then this equation is known as balanced equation.

For example, H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + H_2O

Number of atoms on reactant side:

H = 5

P = 1

O = 6

Ca = 1

Number of atoms on product side:

H = 6

P = 2

O = 9

Ca = 1

In order to balance this equation, we will multiply H_3PO_4 by 2 on reactant side and we will multiply H_2O by 2 on product side. Hence, the balanced chemical equation is as follows.

2H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + 2H_2O

From the calculation, the standard free energy of the system is -359kJ.

<h3>What is the standard free-energy?</h3>

The  standard free-energy is the energy present in the system. We have to first obtain the cell potential using the formula;

Ereduction - E oxidation = 0.96 V - 0.34 V = 0.62 V

Using the formula;

ΔG = -nFEcell

ΔG =-(6 * 96500 * 0.62)

ΔG =-359kJ

Calculate the mass percent composition of sulfur in Al2(SO4)3.
Anastaziya [24]
The molar mass of aluminum sulftae is 342.14 g/mol.

Since the subscript shows that there are 3 sulfurs within the substance, the total mass of sulfur is 96.21g/mol

Now take the mass of the sulfur and divide it by the molar mass of aluminum sulfate, then multiply by 100:
(96.21/342.15)(100) = 28.1% mass composition of sulfate
