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

What volume will water vapor form when 40 liters of hydrogen completely reacts with 25 liters of oxygen? Assume the temperature
Brut [27]
                                                             2H2           +           O2 ---->2H2O  
number of moles in reaction                 2 mol                  1 mol       2 mol
number of liters in the reaction         2*22.4 L                1*22.4 L    2*22.4L
We can see that volumes of the gases are proportional to coefficients in the reaction ( if gases are under the same conditions), so we can write

                              2H2           +           O2 ---->2H2O  
                               2 L                         1 L          2 L
     given                 40 L                      ( 25 L)     40 L

We can see that we have excess of O2,
because if 2 L H2 are needed 1 L O2, then 40 L of H2 are needed 20 L O2.

So, limiting reactant is H2, and we will need to calculate Volume of H2O using H2.
2L H2 give 2L H2O(gas), so 40 L H2 give 40 L H2O.

A 0.08541 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-ml at 288.5 k and 1.10 atm. upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 13.068% c
topjm [15]
<span>C2Br2 First, we need to determine how many moles of the gas we have. For that, we'll use the Ideal Gas Law which is PV = nRT where P = pressure (1.10 atm = 111458 Pa) V = volume (10.0 ml = 0.0000100 m^3) n = number of moles R = Ideal gas constant (8.3144598 (m^3 Pa)/(K mol) ) T = Absolute temperature Solving for n, we get PV/(RT) = n Now substituting our known values into the formula. (111458 Pa * 0.0000100 m^3) / (288.5 K * 8.3144598 (m^3 Pa)/(K mol)) = (1.11458/2398.721652) mol = 0.000464656 mol Now let's calculate the empirical formula for this compound. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight bromine = 79.904 Relative moles carbon = 13.068 / 12.0107 = 1.08802984 Relative moles bromine = 86.932 / 79.904 = 1.087955547 So the relative number of atoms of the two elements is 1.08802984 : 1.087955547 After dividing all numbers by the smallest, the ratio becomes 1.000068287 : 1 Which is close enough to 1:1 for me to consider the empirical formula to be CBr Now calculate the molar mass of CBr 12.0107 + 79.904 = 91.9147 Finally, let's determine if the compound is actually CBr, or something like C2Br2, or some other multiple. Using the molar mass of CBr, multiply by the number of moles and see if the result matches the mass of the gas. So 91.9147 g/mol * 0.000464656 mol = 0.042708701 g 0.0427087 g is a lot smaller than 0.08541 g. So the compound isn't exactly CBr. Let's divide them to see what the factor is. 0.08541 / 0.0427087 = 1.99982673 1.99982673 is close enough to 2 to within the number of significant digits we have for me to claim that the formula for the unknown gas isn't CBr, but instead is C2Br2.</span>

The field lines around one end of a bar magnet are shown below.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

<em>The correct option here would be the third one because it is true. </em>

Explanation:

The diagram shows a bar magnet that has lines that are parallel to each other and are pointing towards one side of the rectangle.

The side of rectangle is South Pole because the arrows that are shown in the diagram are nothing but field lines and these lines tend to start from North Pole and the arrow shows moving inside that point hence that point it would be South Pole showing field lines ending at it.
