Answer:

Ok:

Explanation:

So, you can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for this:

pH = pKa + log(A^-/HA) where A- is the conjugate base of the acid. In other words, A- is the deprotonated form and HA is the protonated.

We can solve that

1 = log(A^-/HA\\) and so 10 = A^-/HA or 10HA = A-.  For every 1 protonated form of adenosine (HA), there are 10 A-. So, the percent in the protonated form will be 1(1+10) or 1/11 which is close to 9 percent.

Calculate the freezing point of a solution containing 5.0 grams of KCl and 550.0 grams of water. The molal-freezing-point-depres
yulyashka [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.

The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:

\Delta T_f=\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_f=iK_fm

Or,

\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

where,

Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 2

K_f = molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (KCl) = 5.0 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (KCl) = 74.55 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (water) = 550.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0-\text{Freezing point of solution}=2\times 1.86^oC/m\times \frac{5\times 1000}{74.55g/mol\times 550}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-0.454^oC

Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

An electron is the largest part of an atom. True or False?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Electrons are the smallest of the three particles that make up atoms. Electrons are found in shells or orbitals that surround the nucleus of an atom. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus. They group together in the center of the atom.
