Answer:

69.3%

Explanation:

The question should read as follows:

A weak acid, HA, has a pKa of 4.357. If a solution of this acid has a pH of 4.005, what percentage of the acid is not ionized? Assume all H⁺ in the solution came from the ionization of HA.

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation relates the pKa and pH of a solution to the ratio of ionized (A⁻) and unionized (HA) forms of a weak acid:

pH = pKa + log ([A⁻]/[HA])

Substituting and solving for [A⁻]/[HA]:

4.005 = 4.3574 = log([A⁻]/[HA])

-0.3524 = log([A⁻]/[HA])

[A⁻]/[HA] = 0.444/1

The percentage of acid that is not ionized (i.e. the percentage of acid in the HA form) is calculated:

[HA]/([A⁻] + [HA]) x 100% = 1/(1+0.444) x 100% = 69.3%

List the number of each type of atom on the right side of the equation hbr(aq)+2naoh(aq)→2nabr(s)+h2o(l)
ser-zykov [4K]

On the basis of the given unbalanced equation, that is:

HBr (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → 2NaBr (s) + H2O (l)

On the right side of the equation, there are 2 atoms of sodium (Na), 2 atoms of bromine (Br), 2 atoms of hydrogen (H), and 1 atom of oxygen (O₂).

After balancing the equation correctly we get:

HBr (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaBr (s) + H2O (l)

On the right side, one atom of Na, 1 atom of Br, 1 atom of H and one atom of O₂.

A molecular orbital that decreases the electron density between two nuclei is said to be ____.
nikklg [1K]

A molecular orbital that decreases the electron density between two nuclei is said to be <u>antibonding.</u>

The bonding orbital, which would be more stable and encourages the bonding of the two H atoms into H_{2}, is the orbital that is located in a less energetic state than just the electron shells of the separate atoms. The antibonding orbital, which has higher energy but is less stable, resists bonding when it is occupied.

An asterisk (sigma*) is placed next to the corresponding kind of molecular orbital to indicate an antibonding orbital. The antibonding orbital known as * would be connected to sigma orbitals, as well as antibonding pi orbitals are known as \pi* orbitals.

Therefore,  molecular orbital that decreases the electron density between two nuclei is said to be <u>antibonding.</u>

<u></u>

Hence, the correct answer will be option (b)
