The pH of the unknown solution is 3.07.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>1.Find the cell potential as a function of pH</u>

From the Nernst Equation:

Ecell=E∘cell−RT /zF × lnQ

where

R denotes the Universal Gas Constant

T denotes the temperature

z denotes the moles of electrons transferred per mole of hydrogen

F denotes the Faraday constant

Q denotes the reaction quotient

Substitute the values,

E∘cell=0   lnQ=2.303logQ

E0cell=−2.30/RT /zF × log Q

Solving the equation,

<u>2. Find the Q  value</u>

Q=[H+]2prod pH₂, product/ [H+]2reactpH₂, reactant

Q=[H+]^2×1/1×1=[H+]2

Taking the log

logQ= log[H+]^2=2log[H+]=-2pH

From the formula,

Ecell=−2.303RT /zF× logQ

E cell= 2.303 × 8.314 CK mol (inverse)  × 298.15

K × 2pH /2×96 485  C⋅mol

( inverse)

E cell= 0.0592 V × pH

<u>3. Finding the pH value</u>

E cell= 0.0592 V × pH

pH = E cell/ 0.0592 V= 0.182V/ 0.0592V

pH=3.07

The pH of the unknown solution is 3.07.

Which of the following elements is the smallest?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The atomic radius of elements are used to estimate the sizes of elements. The atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.

To solve this problem we will obtain the atomic radius values of the given elements from a standard atomic radius table;

          Si          111 pm

           P          98 pm

          Cl          79 pm

            S           87pm

pm = picometer

We see that chlorine has the least atomic radius

Why neon is special from other chemical elements​
kupik [55]
Noble gases react very unwillingly, because the outermost shell of electrons orbiting the nucleus is full, giving these gases no incentive to swap electrons with other elements. As a result, there are very few compounds made with noble gases. Like its noble gas comrades, neon is odorless and colorless.

What is the expected value for the heat of sublimation of acetic acid if its heat of fusion is 10.8 kJ/mol and its heat of vapor
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

35.1 kJ/mol is the expected value for the heat of sublimation of acetic acid.

Explanation:

CH_3COOH(l)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(g)..[1]

Heat of vaporization of acetic acid = H^o_{vap}=24.3 kJ/mol

CH_3COOH(s)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(l)..[2]

Heat of fusion of acetic acid = H^o_{fus}=10.8 kJ/mol

Heat of sublimation of acetic acid = H^o_{sub}=?

CH_3COOH(s)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(g)..[3]

[1] + [2] = [3] (Hess's law)

H^o_{sub}=H^o_{vap}+H^o_{fus}

=24.3 kJ/mol+10.8 kJ/mol=35.1 kJ/mol

35.1 kJ/mol is the expected value for the heat of sublimation of acetic acid.
