EXTREME HURRY!! State the ionization constant expression Ka for lactic acid. Given: pKa = 3.85 and Ka = 1.4*10^-4 mol dm^-3

Chemistry

Ka expression for any substance:
Ka = [H+] [A-] / [HA]

In this case,
Ka = [H+][C₃H₅O₃-]/[C₃H₆O₃]
1.4 x 10⁻⁴ = [H+] [C₃H₅O₃-] / [C₃H₆O₃]

pKa = -log(Ka)
pH = -log([H+])
The difference between pKa and pH is that pH is the negative logarithm of only the concentration of hydrogen ions, while pKa is the negative logarithm of the ratio of the product of the concentrations of hydrogen ions and concentration of base to the concentration of acid.

g \Which substance has the lowest vapor pressure at 25 °C? Group of answer choices CH3CH2OH CH3CH2CH2OH CH3CH2CH2CH2OH CH3CH2CH2
alexdok [17]

Answer:

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the vapor pressure is known to be the pressure exerted by the gaseous molecules in equilibrium with a liquid, we can infer that the higher the molecule, the lower the vapor pressure because the molecules tend to be help together more strongly and more energy is required to separate them and take them from liquid to gas.

In such a way, since CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH is the longest molecule (five carbon atoms) it would be more stable at liquid phase which means that it has less molecules moving to gaseous phase, which is also related with the lowest vapor pressure. Conversely, CH3CH2OH has the highest vapor pressure.

Best regards.

The energy of a photon is ________ proportional to its wavelength. The energy of a photon is ________ proportional to its freque
topjm [15]

Answer: Inversely  ,   Directly

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength and directly proportional to its frequency.

As can be seen from this equation;

E = hv  = h c / ∧

Where E = Energy of a photon

           v = Frequency

           h = Planck Constant

           c = speed of light

           ∧  = Wave length
