The chemical formula for the compound containing 8.6 mol of sulfur and 3.42 mol of phosphorus is P₂S₅
<h3>How do I determine the formula of the compound?</h3>
From the question given above, the following data were obatined:
- Sulphur (S) = 8.6 moles
- Phosphorus (P) = 3.42 mole
- Chemical formula =?
The chemical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:
Divide by their molar mass
S = 8.6 / 32 = 0.26875
P = 3.42 / 31 = 0.11032
Divide by the smallest
S = 0.26875 / 0.11032 = 2.44
P = 0.11032 / 0.11032 = 1
Multiply by 2 to express in whole number
S = 2.44 × 2 = 5
P = 1 × 2 = 2
Thus, the chemical formula is P₂S₅

Answer: The balanced equation is 
.
Explanation:
The given reaction equation is as follows.
Number of atoms present on reactant side are as follows.
- Li = 1
- H = 1
= 1
Number of atoms present on product side are as follows.
- Li = 1
- H = 2
- = 1
To balance this equation, multiply Li by 2 and 
by 2 on reactant side. Also, multiply 
by 2 on product side.
Hence, the equation can be rewritten as follows.
Now, number of atoms present on reactant side are as follows.
- Li = 2
- H = 2
- = 2
Number of atoms present on product side are as follows.
- Li = 2
- H = 2
- = 2
As there are same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Hence, the equation is now balanced.
Thus, we can conclude that the balanced equation is .
According to Henderson–Hasselbalch Equation,
pH = pKa + log [Lactate] / [Lactic Acid]
As,
Ka of Lactic Acid = 1.38 × 10⁻⁴
pKa = -log Ka
pKa = -log 1.38 × 10⁻⁴
pKa = 3.86
So,
pH = 3.86 + log [0.10] / [0.13]
pH = 4.74 + log 0.769
pH = 4.74 - 0.11
pH = 4.63
