pH of 0.048 M HClO is 4.35.
<u>Explanation:</u>
HClO is a weak acid and it is dissociated as,
HClO ⇄ H⁺ + ClO⁻
We can write the equilibrium expression as,
Ka = ![$\frac{[H^{+}] [ClO^{-}] }{[HClO]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%20%5BClO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%20%20%7D%7B%5BHClO%5D%7D)
Ka = 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M
4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M = 
Now we can find x by rewriting the equation as,
x² = 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ × 0.048
= 1.92 × 10⁻⁹
Taking sqrt on both sides, we will get,
x = [H⁺] = 4.38 × 10⁻⁵
pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]
= - log₁₀[ 4.38 × 10⁻⁵]
= 4.35
The correct option is A,
Isotopes are atoms of an element, which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. Thus, isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass number.
Looking at the options given above, you will discover that Chlorine which is given in option A is correct. Both type of chlorine has the same atomic number, which is 17, but they have different atomic masses, the atomic mass of the first one is 35 while that of the second one is 37.<span />
Döbereiner grouped the known elements into <em>triads</em> (sets of three) so that
• The <em>atomic mass of the middle element</em> was approximately the average of the other two
• The <em>chemical properties of the middle element</em> were between those of the other two
• The <em>physical properties of the middle element</em> were between those of the other two
One example of a triad is Li – Na – K.
(a) Atomic mass of Na = 23.0 u
Average atomic mass of Li and K = (6.9 u + 39.1 u)/2 = 46.0 u/2 = 23.0 u
(b) Li reacts slowly with water. Na reacts rapidly. Potassium reacts violently.
(c) Melting point of Na = 371 °C.
Average melting point of Li and K = (454 °C + 330 °C)/2 = 784 °C/2
= 392 °C
