Answer:

the attraction water molecules have to other surfaces

Explanation:

Adhesion is defined as  the attractive forces between unlike substances, e.g water moving up a capillary tube.

Adhesion is the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another(Wikipedia).

So, what we mean by adhesion in this context, is the attraction water molecules to other surfaces.

For the diprotic weak acid h2a, ka1 = 3.2 × 10-6 and ka2 = 6.1 × 10-9. what is the ph of a 0.0650 m solution of h2a? what are th
Stolb23 [73]
Given:

Diprotic weak acid H2A:
 
Ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6
Ka2 = 6.1 x 10^-9. 
Concentration = 0.0650 m 

Balanced chemical equation:

H2A ===> 2H+  + A2- 
0.0650       0        0
-x                2x       x
------------------------------
0.065 - x     2x      x

ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6 = [2x]^2 * [x] / (0.065 - x)

solve for x and determine the concentration at equilibrium.

Why is
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

See note in Explanation

Explanation:

The modern periodic table of the elements is arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers which is also in terms of the number of protons in the nucleus. That is, for any element listed on the periodic table its atomic number equals the number of protons in the nucleus. Thus, the element with 2 protons in its nucleus would be element #2 (Helium), element #3 (Lithium) has 3 protons in its nucleus and element #4 (Beryllium) has an atomic number 4 and contains 4 protons in its nucleus.

Also, this arrangement of elements finds that elements <u>below</u> elements 2, 3 & 4, Neon #10; sodium #11 & magnesium #12 have similar chemical and physical properties as does elements #2, #3 & #4. Such gives rise to the 'Periodic Law' => the chemical and physical properties of the elements is a periodic function of their atomic number (or, number of protons in the nucleus).
