Answer:
Kₐ = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴
Explanation:
First lets write the equilibrium expression, Ka , for the dissociation of hydrofluoric acid:
HF + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + F⁻
Kₐ = [ H₃O⁺ ] [ F⁻ ] /[ [ HF ]
Since we are given the pH we can calculate the [ H₃O⁺ ] ( pH = - log [ H₃O⁺ ] , and because the acid dissociates into a 1: 1 relation , we will also have [F⁻ ]. The [ HF ] is given in the question so we have all the information that is needed to compute Kₐ.
pH = -log [ H₃O⁺ ]
1.68 = - log [ H₃O⁺ ]
Taking antilog to both sides of this equation:
10^-1.68 = [ H₃O⁺ ] ⇒ 2.1 X 10⁻² M= [ H₃O⁺ ]
[ F⁻ ] = 2.1 X 10⁻² M
Solving for Kₐ :
Kₐ = ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) x ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) / 0.65 = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴
(Rounded to two significant figures, the powers of 10 have infinite precision )
Answer:
Polyhydroxyl alcohols
Explanation:
Whenever we have several C-OH bonds, we have a polyhydroxyl alcohol. For example, if we have just one alcohol group, that is, an R-OH group, then the naming is simple, say, we have EtOH, it's ethanol.
The problem becomes more complicated when we have several hydroxyl groups present in the alcohol. Let's say we have an ethane molecule and we replace the hydrogen atoms of carbon 1 and 2 with hydroxyl groups. In that case, we have 1,2-ethanediol. Similarly, we can have triols etc.
That said, we have poly (several) hydroxyl groups and we can generalize this to having polyhydroxyl alcohols.
The balanced equation between NaOH and H₂SO₄ is as follows
2NaOH + H₂SO₄ ---> Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of NaOH to H₂SO₄ is 2:1
number of moles of NaOH moles reacted = molarity of NaOH x volume
number of NaOH moles = 0.08964 mol/L x 27.86 x 10⁻³ L = 2.497 x 10⁻³ mol
according to molar ratio of 2:1
2 mol of NaOH reacts with 1 mol of H₂SO₄
therefore 2.497 x 10⁻³ mol of NaOH reacts with - 1/2 x 2.497 x 10⁻³ mol of H₂SO₄
number of moles of H₂SO₄ reacted - 1.249 x 10⁻³ mol
Number of H₂SO₄ moles in 34.53 mL - 1.249 x 10⁻³ mol
number of H₂SO₄ moles in 1000 mL - 1.249 x 10⁻³ mol / 34.53 x 10⁻³ L = 0.03617 mol
molarity of H₂SO₄ is 0.03617 M
The orbitals closest to the nucleus is the orbital wih the lowest energy. This is according to the basic rules stating that the energy of the shells as its principal quantum number increases, also increases. Thus the answer in 1 is B. Valence electrons are found in the outermost electron shell, on the other hand.
