pH = 0.5 pKa + 0.5 pCa
0.5 pCa = pH - 0.5 pKa
              = 4.2 - (0.5 * (-log 1.34 x 10⁻⁵)) = 1.76
pCa = 3.53
Ca = antilog - 3.52 = 3 x 10⁻⁴ 
where Ca is the acid concentration

A gas has a volume of 590 mL at temperature of -55.0 C. What volume will the gas occupy at 30.0 C show your work
DENIUS [597]
Data:
V_{initial} = 590\:mL
T_{initial} = -55.0^0C
converting to Kelvin
TK = TC + 273
TK = -55.0 + 273 → TK = 218.0 → T_{initial} = 218.0\:K
V_{final} = ? (in\:milliliters)
T_{final} = 30.0^0C
TK = TC + 273
TK = 30.0 + 273 → TK = 303.0 → T_{final} = 303.0\:K

By the first Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac, we have: 
\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }

Solving:
\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }
\frac{ 590 }{ 218.0 } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ 303.0 }
Product of extremes equals product of means:
218.0* V_{f} = 590*303.0
218.0 V_{f} = 178770
V_{f} = \frac{178770}{218.0}
\boxed{\boxed{V_{f} \approx 820.04\:mL}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Given the unbalanced equation:
maw [93]

Answer:

Option (2) 2

Explanation:

NO3- + 4H+ + Pb → Pb2+ + NO2 + 2H2O

The equation above can be balance as follow:

There are 3 atoms of the left side and a total of 4 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front NO3- and 2 in front of NO2 as shown below:

2NO3- + 4H+ + Pb → Pb2+ + 2NO2 + 2H2O

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficient of NO2 is 2

60 kg of fuel was completely burnt for an experiment. The amount of heat energy was found to be 180000KJ. Calculate calorific va
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

3000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.

It is given by:

C=\frac{Q}{m}

where

Q is the amount of heat released

m is the mass of the fuel

In this problem, we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel

Q=180,000 kJ is the amount of heat released

Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:

C=\frac{180,000}{60}=3000 kJ/kg

If a molecule has an empirical formula of C2H2O and a molecular mass of 84.0 g/mol, what is the molecular formula?
lord [1]

Answer:

=C₄H₄O₂

Explanation:

Given the empirical formula of a molecule, the he the quotient of the molecular mas and and the empirical mass=constant.

84.0 g/mol/mass of(C₂H₂O)=constant

=84/(12×2+1×2×16)

=84/42

=2

Therefore, the molecular formula is (C₂H₂O)₂=C₄H₄O₂

How much energy is released when 0.40 mol C6H6(g) completely reacts with oxygen?
Vsevolod [243]
 <span>This question asksyou to apply Hess's law. 
You have to look for how to add up all the reaction so that you get the net equation as the combustion for benzene. The net reaction should look something like C6H6(l)+ O2 (g)-->CO2(g) +H2O(l). So, you need to add up the reaction in a way so that you can cancel H2 and C. 
multiply 2 H2(g) + O2 (g) --> 2H2O(l) delta H= -572 kJ by 3 
multiply C(s) + O2(g) --> CO2(g) delta H= -394 kJ by 12 
multiply 6C(s) + 3 H2(g) --> C6H6(l) delta H= +49 kJ by 2 after reversing the equation. 
Then, 
6 H2(g) + 3O2 (g) --> 6H2O(l) delta H= -1716 kJ 
12C(s) + 12O2(g) --> 12CO2(g) delta H= -4728 kJ 
2C6H6(l) --> 12 C(s) + 6 H2(g) delta H= - 98 kJ 
______________________________________... 
2C6H6(l) + 16O2 (g)-->12CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) delta H= - 6542 kJ 
I hope this helps and my answer is right.</span>
