At least 14 to 18 percent of water is being lost each year. I really hope this helps :D

Tomtit [17]2 years ago

Answer:

The current loss figure is equivalent to ~25,920 liters per day or 9,467 m3 per year

It isn't a percentage, but I hope that helps a little

This is a hypothesis question. This is an educated guess, basically. In my opinion, I think the tails side would hold more water.

BH+ClO4- is a salt formed from the base B (Kb = 1.00e-4) and perchloric acid. It dissociates into BH+, a weak acid, and ClO4-, w

Len [333]

Answer:

The pH of 0.1 M BH⁺ClO₄⁻ solution is 5.44

Explanation:

Given: The base dissociation constant: $K_{b}$ = 1 × 10⁻⁴, Concentration of salt: BH⁺ClO₄⁻ = 0.1 M

Also, water dissociation constant: $K_{w}$ = 1 × 10⁻¹⁴

The acid dissociation constant ( $K_{a}$ ) for the weak acid (BH⁺) can be calculated by the equation:

$K_{a}. K_{b} = K_{w}$

$\Rightarrow K_{a} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{b}}$

$\Rightarrow K_{a} = \frac{1\times 10^{-14}}{1\times 10^{-4}} = 1\times 10^{-10}$

Now, the acid dissociation reaction for the weak acid (BH⁺) and the initial concentration and concentration at equilibrium is given as:

Reaction involved: BH⁺ + H₂O ⇌ B + H₃O+

Initial: 0.1 M x x

Change: -x +x +x

Equilibrium: 0.1 - x x x

The acid dissociation constant: $K_{a} = \frac{\left [B \right ] \left [H_{3}O^{+}\right ]}{\left [BH^{+} \right ]} = \frac{(x)(x)}{(0.1 - x)} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.1 - x}$

$\Rightarrow K_{a} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.1 - x}$

$\Rightarrow 1\times 10^{-10} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.1 - x}$

$As, x$

$\Rightarrow 0.1 - x = 0.1$

$\therefore 1\times 10^{-10} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.1 }$

$\Rightarrow x^{2} = (1\times 10^{-10})\times 0.1 = 1\times 10^{-11}$

$\Rightarrow x = \sqrt{1\times 10^{-11}} = 3.16 \times 10^{-6}$

Therefore, the concentration of hydrogen ion: x = 3.6 × 10⁻⁶ M

Now, pH = - ㏒ [H⁺] = - ㏒ (3.6 × 10⁻⁶ M) = 5.44

Therefore, the pH of 0.1 M BH⁺ClO₄⁻ solution is 5.44

A histidine is involved in an interaction with a glutamic acid that stabilizes the charged form of the histidine, such that the

Greeley [361]

Answer:

pKa of the histidine = 9.67

Explanation:

The relation between standard Gibbs energy and equilibrium constant is shown below as:

$\Delta{G^0} =-RT \ln \frac{[His]}{[His+]}$

R is Gas constant having value = 0.008314 kJ / K mol

Given temperature, T = 293 K

Given, $\Delta{G^0}=15\ kJ/mol$

So, Applying in the equation as:-

$15\ kJ/mol=-0.008314\ kJ/Kmol\times 293\ K\times \ln \frac{[His]}{[His+]}$

Thus,

$15\ kJ/mol=-0.008314\ kJ/Kmol\times 293\ K\times \ln \frac{[His]}{[His+]}$

$\frac{[His]}{[His+]}=e^{\frac{15}{-0.008314\times 293}$

$\frac{[His]}{[His+]}=0.00211$

Also, considering:-

$pH=pKa+log\frac{[His]}{[His+]}$

Given that:- pH = 7.0

So, $7.0=pKa+log0.00211$

pKa of the histidine = 9.67
