Answer:

0.216

Explanation:

The mole fraction of HCl is the number of moles of HCl (0.99) divided by the total number of moles in the solution.

mole fraction = (0.99)/(0.99 +3.6) = 0.2157

The mole fraction of HCl is about 0.216.

Water is a polar molecule, meaning the electrons that are shared between the atoms aren't shared equally so oxygen attracts more

amm1812

Answer:

Magnet with a positive and a negative pole

Explanation:

A great analogy to demonstrate what a polar molecule looks like is to imagine a magnet. A magnet has one positively charged end and one negatively charged end, two poles, that is.

Imagine that we have a magnet of a shape of a prism (water molecule has a bent shape). The two base vertices of the face of the triangle are positively charged, that's because hydrogen is less electronegative than oxygen and, hence, the two hydrogen atoms are partially positively charged in a water molecule.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen meaning it has a greater electron-withdrawing force, so electrons are closer to oxygen within the O-H bonds. Oxygen, as a result, becomes partially negatively charged, so it's our negative pole of the magnet.

Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and your knowledge of ionization to help you answer this question. Aspirin is a weak acid

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The protonated form is predominant when aspirin is absorbed more readily. The ratio of conjugate base to acid is 1 to 100.

Explanation:

Aspirin is more readily absorbed when it is protonated, that is when pH is lower than pKa (more H⁺ available in the medium). We can confirm this using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for pH = 1.5:

$pH = pKa +log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\1.5=3.5 +log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\-2.0=log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\10^{-2.0} =\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid}\\\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid}=0.01=\frac{1}{100}$

When aspirin is absorbed more readily the ratio of conjugate base to acid is 1 to 100, being the acid the predominant form.

What is the equilibrium constant of a reaction?

xeze [42]

Answer:

A. It is the ratio of the concentrations of products to the concentrations of reactants.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

This equilibrium constant can be expressed in many different formats.

For any system, the molar concentration of all the species on the right side are related to the molar concentrations of those on the left side by the equilibrium constant.
The equilibrium constant is a constant at a given temperature and it is temperature dependent.
The derivation of the equilibrium constant is based on the law of mass action.
It states that "the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentration of the reacting substances. "
