This can be solved using the Combined Gas Law. The formula for that is
Let's go ahead and fill in our known values. Since pressure remains the same, it doesn't matter what number we use, so let's assume 1 atm on both sides. For temperature, remember to convert it to Kelvin first (K = C + 273).
Go ahead and simplify both sides.
0.001238 =
Multiply both sides by 573.
0.7095 = x L
So, at 300° C, your gas will occupy 0.7095 L.
Answer:
D. The electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms pull electron density from the oxygen in trifluoroacetate. The negative charge is more stabilized in trifluoroacetate by this effect.
Explanation:
The structures of trifluoroacetate and acetic acid are both shown in the image attached.
The trifluoroacetate anion (CF3CO2-), just like the acetate anion has in the middle, two oxygen atoms.
However, in the trifluoroacetate anion, there are also three electronegative fluorine atoms attached to the nearby carbon atom attached to the carbonyl, and these pull some electron density through the sigma bonding network away from the oxygen atoms, thereby spreading out the negative charge further. This effect, called the "inductive effect" stabilizes the anion formed,the trifouoroacetate anion is thus more stabilized than the acetate anion.
Hence, trifluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, having a pKa of -0.18.
