i may be wrong but Use the normal boiling points: propane, C3H8, –42.1˚C; butane, C4H10, –0.5˚C; pentane, C5H12, 36.1˚C; hexane, C6H14, 68.7˚C; heptane, C7H16, 98.4˚C; to estimate the normal boiling point of octane, C8H18.

Answer:

C₄H₁₀ > C₃H₈

Explanation:

Propane (C₃H₈) is symmetrical and non-polar, so the only inter-molecular forces are London dispersion forces.

Butane (C₄H₁₀) is symmetrical and non-polar, so the only inter-molecular forces are also London dispersion forces.

The only difference is the size.  Butane has more atoms, more surface area, and therefore more inter-molecular forces.  So it has a higher boiling point.

C₄H₁₀ > C₃H₈

Analyze how limestone is weathered and identify the features that are formed as a result of this dissolution
I am Lyosha [343]

Limestone is easily weathered by acid rain. When rain mixes with gases such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, acid rain is formed (sulfuric acid and carbonic acid respectively). When the rain precipitates and meets with limestone which is CaCO3, it is weathered a shown by the formulae; 2CaCO₃ (s) + H₂CO₃ → 2CaHCO3 (aq)

Geographical features formed as a result of weathering of limestone in rocks are caves, stalactites, and stalagmites.

A 0.21 M solution of a weak acid HA dissociates such that 99.1% of the weak acid remains intact (i.e., remains as HA). To the ne
bixtya [17]

Answer:

pKa = - 1.36012

Explanation:

  • HA ↔ H+ + A-

∴ Ka = [H+] [A-] / [HA]

  • pKa = - Log Ka
  • % dissociates (%α) = ([A-] / [A-] + [HA])×100

∴ %α = 99.1%

∴ <em>C</em> HA = 0.21 M

Mass Balance:

⇒ <em>C </em>HA = [HA] + [A-] = 0.21 M............(1)

Charge balance:

⇒ [H+] = [A-] + [OH-].....[OH-] is neglected, it come from the water

⇒ [H+] = [A-]...............(2)

(2) in (1):

⇒ [HA] = 0.21 - [H+]

replacing in %α:

∴ %α = 99.1% = ([A-]/([A-]+[HA]))×100

⇒ 0.991 = [A-] / [A-] + [HA] = [A-] / 0.21 M

⇒ [A-] = (0.21 M)*(0.991) = 0.20811 M

Replacing in Ka:

⇒ Ka = [H+]² / (0.21 - [H+])

∴ [H+] = [A-] = 0.20811 M

⇒ Ka = (0.20811)² / (0.21 - 0.20811)

⇒ Ka = 22.9152

⇒ pKa = - Log (22.9152)

⇒ pKa = - 1.3601
