Answer:

K_a=\frac{[H_3O^+][HCO_3^-]}{[H_2CO_3]}

Explanation:

Several rules should be followed to write any equilibrium expression properly. In the context of this problem, we're dealing with an aqueous equilibrium:

  • an equilibrium constant is, first of all, a fraction;
  • in the numerator of the fraction, we have a product of the concentrations of our products (right-hand side of the equation);
  • in the denominator of the fraction, we have a product of the concentrations of our reactants (left-hand side o the equation);
  • each concentration should be raised to the power of the coefficient in the balanced chemical equation;
  • only aqueous species and gases are included in the equilibrium constant, solids and liquids are omitted.

Following the guidelines, we will omit liquid water and we will include all the other species in the constant. Each coefficient in the balanced equation is '1', so no powers required. Multiply the concentrations of the two products and divide by the concentration of carbonic acid:

K_a=\frac{[H_3O^+][HCO_3^-]}{[H_2CO_3]}

Explanation:

1. In a decomposition reaction; One reactant is broken down into two or more than two products is called decomposition.

2. A combustion reaction; A fuel is combined with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, this reaction is called combustion reaction.

3. A synthesis reaction; it occurs when two or more reactants combine to form one product is known as synthesis reaction.

4. Double Replacement Reaction; Two compounds react to form two different compounds is known as double Replacement Reaction.

5.  A single replacement reaction; occurs when a compound reacts with an element to form a new compound , this reaction is called as  single replacement reaction.

Among the intermolecular forces,which forces are typically the weakest
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The London dispersion force is the weakest intermolecular force. The London dispersion force is a temporary attractive force that results when the electrons in two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make the atoms form temporary dipoles.

Compare the density of 25g of copper to 80g of copper?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

55

Explanation:

25g is less dense than 80g therefore will mostly float. if you subtract 80-25 that will leave you will 55 as the difference
