PH= log[H3O+]
10.25=log [H3O+]
[H3O+] = 10^10.25
[H3O+]= 1.778 ×10^10

pH + pOH = 14 10.25 + pOH = 14 pOH = 14 - 10.25 = 3.75 Now, knowing the pOH we can find the OH^- since pOH is -log [OH-] [OH-] = 10^-3.75 = 1.78x10^-4 M

Which is the metric standard for measuring energy? Which unit is used for specific heat capacity? If you wanted to compare the a

DENIUS [597]

1. Which is the metric standard for measuring energy?

The metric standard for measuring of energy defined by the International System of Units is the joule (J), which is defined as the work done by a force of a newton in a displacement of one meter in the direction of force. So,

1 J = 1 N m = 1 kg·m²/s²

Calorie is also frequently used in scientific and technological applications. Calorie is a unit of thermal energy that is equivalent to the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.

1 cal = 4,184 J

2. Which unit is used for specific heat capacity?

The specific heat capacity (c) is a physical quantity that is defined as the amount of heat (q) that must be supplied to the mass unit of a thermodynamic substance or system to raise its temperature by one unit. So,

c = q / m ΔT

where m is the mass of the substance and ΔT is the temperature increase.

In this way, as heat is a form of energy, the International System of Units expresses the specific heat in joules per kilogram and per kelvin (J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹). Another common unit, not belonging to the SI, is the calorie per gram and per degree centigrade (cal g⁻¹ ° C⁻¹).

3. If you wanted to compare the abilities of olive oil and peanut oil to gain or lose thermal energy, which unit would you use?

You should use units of specific heat capacity (J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹) since, as mentioned above, this is a physical quantity that measures the amount of heat that must be supplied to an specific mass of a substance or system to raise its temperature.

Heat is a thermal energy, so by using heat capacity units you can compare the ability of olive oil and peanut oil to gain or lose thermal energy by varying its temperature.

An aqueous CsCl solution is 8.00 wt% CsCl and has a density of 1.0643 g/mL at 20°C. What is the boiling point of this solution?

umka2103 [35]

Answer: The boiling point of solution is 100.53

Explanation:

We are given:

8.00 wt % of CsCl

This means that 8.00 grams of CsCl is present in 100 grams of solution

Mass of solvent = (100 - 8) g = 92 grams

The equation used to calculate elevation in boiling point follows:

$\Delta T_b=\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of pure solution}$

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_b=iK_bm$

Or,

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of pure solution}=i\times K_b\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

where,

Boiling point of pure solution = 100°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 2 (For CsCl)

$K_b$ = molal boiling point elevation constant = 0.51°C/m

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (CsCl) = 8.00 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (CsCl) = 168.4 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = 92 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-100=2\times 0.51^oC/m\times \frac{8.00\times 1000}{168.4g/mol\times 92}\\\\\text{Boiling point of solution}=100.53^oC$

Hence, the boiling point of solution is 100.53

The terms Q and K refer to reaction components at non-equilibrium and equilibrium conditions, respectively. For a forward reacti

daser333 [38]

Answer:

The value of Q must be less than that of K.

Explanation:

The difference of K and Q can be understood with the help of an example as follows

A ⇄ B

In this reaction A is converted into B but after some A is converted , forward reaction stops At this point , let equilibrium concentration of B be [B] and let equilibrium concentration of A be [A]

In this case ratio of [B] and [A] that is

K = [B] / [A] which is called equilibrium constant.

But if we measure the concentration of A and B ,before equilibrium is reached , then the ratio of the concentration of A and B will be called Q. As reaction continues concentration of A increases and concentration of B decreases. Hence Q tends to be equal to K.

Q = [B] / [A] . It is clear that Q < K before equilibrium.

If Q < K , reaction will proceed towards equilibrium or forward reaction will

proceed .
