Answer:

63.6g/mol

Explanation:

Use the equation of effusion:

47.8/24= $\sqrt{x/16.04}$

solve for x you get 63.6g/mol

xeze [42]

Answer:

See the answer below, please.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant is defined as the relationship between products and reagents, each one elevated to their stoichiometric coefficients, in that of the given equation, the Kc is:

Kc= (NH4)^1/ (NH3)^1 x (HI)^1

NH4= products

NH3 and HI = reagents

Which statement describes the energy involved in diffusion? Diffusion requires energy in all cases. Diffusion requires energy on

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Both b and d can be correct

Explanation:

Generally, diffusion does not require energy (<em>making option a wrong</em>) because it is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration hence diffusion moves particles in the direction of a concentration gradient. An example of this is the passive transport (for instance, uptake of glucose by a liver cell).

However, in some cases, when diffusion is against the concentration gradient (i.e when particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration), diffusion will require energy in a case like this (<em>making option c wrong</em>). An example of this is active transport (transport of protein called sodium-potassium pump which involves pumping of potassium into the cell and sodium out of the cell).

The explanation above shows that diffusion can require energy to move particles (in or out) of the cell through the cell membrane.

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, C9H8O4) is a weak monoprotic acid. To determine its acid-dissociation constant, a student dissolv

Triss [41]

Answer:

1. $3.57\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_a$ value calculated by the student.

2. $5.93\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_b$ of ethylamine value calculated by the student.

Explanation:

1.

The $pH$ value of Aspirin solution = 2.62

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

$[H^+]=10^{-2.62}=0.00240 M$

Moles of s asprin = $\frac{2.00 g}{180 g/mol}=0.01111 mol$

Volume of the solution = 0.600 L

The initial concentration of Aspirin = c = $\frac{0.01111 mol}{0.600 L}=0.0185 M$

$HAs\rightleftharpoons As^-+H^+$

initially

c 0 0

At equilibrium

(c-x) x x

The expression of dissociation constant :

$K_a=\frac{[As^-][H^+]}{[HAs]}$ :

$K_a=\frac{x\times x }{(c-x)}$

$=\frac{0.00240 M\times 0.00240 M}{(0.0185-0.00240 )}$

$K_a=3.57\times 10^{-4}$

$3.57\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_a$ value calculated by the student.

2.

The $pH$ value of ethylamine = 11.87

$pH+pOH=14$

$pOH=14-11.87=2.13$

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=10^{-2.13}=0.00741 M$

The initial concentration of ethylamine = c = 0.100 M

$C_2H_5NH_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5NH_3^{+}+OH^-$

initially

c 0 0

At equilibrium

(c-x) x x

The expression of dissociation constant :

$K_b=\frac{[C_2H_5NH_3^{+}][OH^-]}{[C_2H_5NH_2]}$ :

$K_b=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}$

$=\frac{0.00741\times 0.00741}{(0.100-0.00741)}$

$K_b=5.93\times 10^{-4}$

$5.93\times 10^{-4}$ was the $K_b$ of ethylamine value calculated by the student.
