Nitrous acid is HNO2. Its dissociation is HNO2 = H(+) + NO2(-). The equilibrium constant, Ka = [H+][NO2-]/[HNO2] => x^2 / (0.20 - x). Given that it is a weak acid (Ka = 4.6 * 10^ -4),you can use a very good approxiamation: 0.20 >> x => 0.20 - x = 0.20, and this permits you to solve the value of x more easily. => 4.6 * 10^-4 = (x^2) / 0.20 => x^2 = 0.20 * 4.6 * 10^ -4 = 0.92 * 10^-4 => x = 9.59 * 10^ -3. Now,calculate pH = log { 1 / [H+] } = log { 1 / (9.59 * 10 ^-3) } = 2.02. <span>Answer pH = 2.02</span>

If you initially have a volume of 4 L and a temperature of 300K. Then you decreased the volume to 2 L, what is the new temperatu
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

T₂ = 150 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 4 L

Initial temperature = 300 K

Final volume = 2 L

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁  

T₂ = 300 K × 2L / 4 L

T₂ = 600 L.K / 4 L

T₂ = 150 K

The options are: ( it can’t be repeated )
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

3- gamma radiation

Explanation:

Hello,

In the above question, 4 of the options are related to polymerization which are

1. Synthetic polymer

2. Natural polymer

3. Condensation polymerization

4. Addition polymerization.

The first two options are types of polymer that exists while the last two are polymerization techniques.

The odd option here which is "gamma radiation" is a particle which is emitted from radioactive substances during decay. It has no mass and no charge but it is highly penetrating and dangerous to human health.

However,

Synthetic polymers are also known as man made polymers and they exist around us because they're present in materials which we use everyday. An example is polyethylene, nylon-6,6 etc

Natural polymers are compounds which are polymeric in nature (compounds catenating to form a complex molecule). Natrual occurring polymers can be found in proteins and some lipids.

<span>1.Remove the ending of the second element, and add "ide" just like in ionic compounds
 2.When naming molecular compounds prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in the compound
3.If there is only one of the first element, you can drop the prefix
<span>4.If there are two vowels in a row that sound the same once the prefix is added (they "conflict"), the extra vowel on the end of the prefix is removed</span></span>
