Answer:

Coefficient of H^{+}(aq) is more than 4

Explanation:

Oxidation: Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)

  • Balance charge: Sn^{2+}(aq)-2e^{-}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)......(1)

Reduction: Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq)

  • Balance Cr: Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)
  • Balance O and H in acidic medium: Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)
  • Balance charge: Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)+6e^{-}\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l).......(2)

[3\times Equation-(1)]+Equation(2) gives balanced equation:

3Sn^{2+}(aq)+Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 3Sn^{4+}(aq)+2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)

So coefficient of H^{+}(aq) is more than 4

Calculate the Ka for the following acid. Determine if it is a strong or weak acid.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

a) Ka= 7.1 × 10⁻⁴; This is a weak acid because the acid is not completely dissociated in solution.

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the dissociation reaction for nitrous acid

HNO₂(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) and NO₂⁻(aq)

Step 2: Calculate the acid dissociation constant

Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

Ka = 0.022 × 0.022 / 0.68

Ka = 7.1 × 10⁻⁴

Step 3: Determine the strength of the acid

Since Ka is very small, nitrous acid is a weak acid, not completely dissociated in solution.
