An unknown triprotic acid (H3A) is titrated with NaOH. After the titration Ka1 is determined to be 0.0013 and Ka2 is determined

to be 6.5e-07. The pH at the second equivalence point of the titration is measured as 8.181. What is Ka3 for this triprotic acid

Answer:

6.68 X 10^-11

Explanation:

From the second Ka, you can calculate pKa = -log (Ka2) = 6.187

The pH at the second equivalence point (8.181) will be the average of pKa2  and pKa3. So,

8.181 = (6.187 + pKa3) / 2

Solving gives pKa3 = 10.175, and Ka3 = 10^-pKa3 = 6.68 X 10^-11

Iron(II) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction:
Inessa [10]
The balanced chemical reaction would be:

FeS(s)+2HCl(aq)→FeCl2(s)+H2S(g) 

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. We use these amounts. First, we determine the limiting reactant of the reaction. From the data, we can say that FeS is the limiting ad HCl is the excess reactant. We calculate as follows:

Amount of HCl used: 0.240 mol FeS x 2 mol HCl / 1 mol FeS = 0.48 mol HCl

0.646 - 0.48 = 0.166 mol HCl left

How is a nuclear weapon engineered?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:The first task of a nuclear weapon design is to rapidly assemble a supercritical mass of fissile uranium or plutonium. A supercritical mass is one in which the percentage of fission-produced neutrons captured by another fissile nucleus is large enough that each fission event, on average, causes more than one additional fission event. Once the critical mass is assembled, at maximum density, a burst of neutrons is supplied to start as many chain reactions as possible. Early weapons used a modulated neutron generator codenamed "Urchin" inside the pit containing polonium-210 and beryllium separated by a thin barrier. Implosion of the pit crushed the neutron generator, mixing the two metals, thereby allowing alpha particles from the polonium to interact with beryllium to produce free neutrons. In modern weapons, the neutron generator is a high-voltage vacuum tube containing a particle accelerator which bombards a deuterium/tritium-metal hydride target with deuterium and tritium ions. The resulting small-scale fusion produces neutrons at a protected location outside the physics package, from which they penetrate the pit. This method allows better control of the timing of chain reaction initiation.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Grey precipitate implies the presence of silver ions

Yellow precipitate implies the presence of lead II ions

Explanation:

Qualitative analysis provides us a quick method of identifying ions present in a sample by chemical reactions involving simple reagents. Precipitates having a unique colour is formed. The identity of ions in the sample is deduced from the colour of precipitate obtained when particular reagents are added.

In the question, a precipitate containing silver ions upon standing turn into grey colour. Similarly, lead II ions give a yellow precipitate.
