Answer: Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's Law : 'The pressure of the gas increases with increase in temperature of the gas when volume of the gas is kept constant'.

(Pressure)\propto (Temperature)

At constant volume, pressure of the gas will decrease on decreasing the temperature or vice versa.

Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.

The pH of a 1.0M solution of butanoic acid HC4H7O2 is measured to be 2.41. Calculate the acid dissociation constant Ka of butano
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Ka = 1.52 E-5

Explanation:

  • CH3-(CH2)2-COOH ↔ CH3(CH2)2COO-  + H3O+

⇒ Ka = [H3O+][CH3)CH2)2COO-] / [CH3(CH2)2COOH]

mass balance:

⇒<em> C</em> CH3(CH2)2COOH = [CH3(CH2)2COO-] + [CH3(CH2)2COOH] = 1.0 M

charge balance:

⇒ [H3O+] = [CH3(CH2)2COO-]

⇒ Ka = [H3O+]²/(1 - [H3O+])

∴ pH = 2.41 = - Log [H3O+]

⇒ [H3O+] = 3.89 E-3 M

⇒ Ka = (3.89 E-3)² / ( 1 - 3.89 E-3 )

⇒ Ka = 1.519 E-5

Calculate the percent ionization of nitrous acid in a solution that is 0.139 M in nitrous acid. The acid dissociation constant o
anzhelika [568]
Ok first, we have to create a balanced equation for the dissolution of nitrous acid.

HNO2 <-> H(+) + NO2(-)

Next, create an ICE table

           HNO2   <-->  H+        NO2-
[]i        0.139M          0M       0M
Δ[]      -x                   +x         +x
[]f        0.139-x          x           x

Then, using the concentration equation, you get

4.5x10^-4 = [H+][NO2-]/[HNO2]

4.5x10^-4 = x*x / .139 - x

However, because the Ka value for nitrous acid is lower than 10^-3, we can assume the amount it dissociates is negligable, 

assume 0.139-x ≈ 0.139

4.5x10^-4 = x^2/0.139

Then, we solve for x by first multiplying both sides by 0.139 and then taking the square root of both sides.

We get the final concentrations of [H+] and [NO2-] to be x, which equals 0.007M.

Then to find percent dissociation, you do final concentration/initial concentration.

0.007M/0.139M = .0503 or 

≈5.03% dissociation.

Lead can be prepared from galena [lead(II) sulfide] by first roasting the galena in oxygen gas to form lead(II) oxide and sulfur
Vesna [10]

Answer:

a) Step 1:

2PbS(g)+3O_2(g)\overset{roasting}\rightarrow 2PbO(s)+2SO_2(g)

Step 2:

2PbO(s)+PbS(s)\overset{\Delta }\rightarrow 3Pb(l)+SO_2(g)

b) The overall balanced reaction for given process is ;

3PbS(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 3Pb(l)+3SO_2(g)

Explanation:

a)

Galena = PbS

Lead(II) oxide = PbO

Sulfur dioxide = SO_2

Step 1:

Roasting the galena in oxygen gas to form lead(II) oxide and sulfur dioxide.

Balanced equation of step 1:

2PbS(g)+3O_2(g)\overset{roasting}\rightarrow 2PbO(s)+2SO_2(g)..[1]

Step 2:

Heating the metal oxide with more galena forms the molten metal and more sulfur dioxide.

Balanced equation of step 2:

2PbO(s)+PbS(s)\overset{\Delta }\rightarrow 3Pb(l)+SO_2(g)..[2]

b)

For over all reaction add [1] and [2]. The overall balanced reaction for given process is ;

3PbS(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 3Pb(l)+3SO_2(g)

Which of the following is NOT an exothermic reaction?
nignag [31]

Answer:

a) dissolving sugar in water to form a mixture of sugar and water

Explanation:

exothermic reaction is reaction in which is heat is released during the reaction and endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is needed or required for the reaction to take place

all the options excluding option A) is exothermic as during the process of formation of bonds in oxidation, heat is released. rusting too is a slow form of oxidation and thus an exothermic reaction.

dissolving sugar in water is not exothermic reaction because their is no heat released. the sugar molecules simply disperses in the water molecules and form a solution.
