Answer:

1.14atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

V1 = 250cm³ ;

1000cm³ = 1dm³; so this is 0.25dm³

P1 = 760torr

760torr = 1atm

V2 = 220cm³ ; 0.22dm³

Unknown:

New pressure = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law and we use the expression below:

P1 V1 = P2V2

The unknown is P2;

1 x 0.25 = P2 x 0.22

P2 = 1.14atm

Can someone Summarize how the suns gravity affects the planets please.

egoroff_w [7]

The sun's gravity pulls the planet toward the sun, which changes the straight line of direction into a curve. This keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun. Because of the sun's gravitational pull, all the planets in our solar system orbit around it.

Answer:

Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;

They are generally more acidic.

Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.

Explanation:

According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,

an acid is a substance that can release $H^{+}$ ions when dissolved in water.

So, acid is a proton donor.

If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.

In the case of phenol,

the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.

$C_6H_5OH -> C_6H_5O^- +H^+$

The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:

Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.

So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.

Calculate the Ka for the following acid. Determine if it is a strong or weak acid.

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

a) Ka= 7.1 × 10⁻⁴; This is a weak acid because the acid is not completely dissociated in solution.

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the dissociation reaction for nitrous acid

HNO₂(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) and NO₂⁻(aq)

Step 2: Calculate the acid dissociation constant

Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

Ka = 0.022 × 0.022 / 0.68

Ka = 7.1 × 10⁻⁴

Step 3: Determine the strength of the acid

Since Ka is very small, nitrous acid is a weak acid, not completely dissociated in solution.
