Answer:

ka = 2x10⁻⁹

Explanation:

Using the pH we can <u>calculate the molar concentration of H⁺</u>, [H⁺]

  • pH = -log[H⁺] = 4.65
  • 10^{-4.65} =  [H⁺] = 2.24 x 10⁻⁵ M

Then we use the expression of Ka for the equilibrium of a weak monoprotic acid:

HA ↔ H⁺ + A⁻

Where:

ka = \frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

ka =  \frac{(2.24*10^{-5})(2.24*10^{-5})}{0.25-2.24*10^{-5}} =  2x10⁻⁹

Make the following conversion. 0.075 m = _____ cm 7.5 75 0.0075 0.00075
GaryK [48]
In the given question we need to convert 0.075 meter into centimeter. For this purpose we need to know the relation between meter and centimeter. Then only this problem can be solved and the correct answer reached.
Now we know that
1 meter = 100 centimeter
Then
0.075 meter = [(100/1) * 0.075] centimeter
We know that any number when divided by 1 gives the same number.
So
0.075 meter = (100 * 0.075) centimeter
                    = (100 * 75/1000) centimeter
                    = (7500/1000) centimeter
                    = (75/10) centimeter
                    = 7.5 centimeter.
So from all the given options the correct answer to the question is 7.5 centimeter.

Oxygen and nitrogen are both gases at room temperature. Explain why oxygen has a greater force of attraction between its particl
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen molecules and Nitrogen molecules forms in a very similar way. The attraction between particles of oxygen is great due to its very high electronegativity value. Oxygen has a higher electronegative value compared to nitrogen.

Electronegativity of an atom is the relative tendency with which atoms of an element attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond. Valence electrons are used in forming chemical bonds. They can be transferred from one atom to the other or they can be shared.

Oxygen is the second most electronegative atom on the periodic table. To form a bond, it shares the valence electrons in order for its octet to be complete. Pull for the valence electrons between the contributing atoms is very strong due to their large electronegative values. This pull is stronger compared to that between nitrogen atoms.

For the reaction2 C4H10 (g) + 13 O2 (g) → 8 CO2 (g) + 10 H2O (g)ΔH° is -125 kJ/mol and ΔS° is +253 J/K ∙ mol. This reaction is _
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

C. spontaneous at all temperatures

Explanation:

The spontaneity of  reaction is determined by the sign of the  gibbs free energy.

A negative sign denotes that the reaction is spontaneous, positive sign means the reaction is not spontaneous.

From the question;

ΔS° = +253 J/K

ΔH° = -125 kJ/mol

ΔG = ΔH°  - TΔS°

From the data given, the condition in which we can obtain a negative value of G, is at any value of T.

For any value of T, G would always be a negative value.

This means the correct option is option C.

The volume of a gas is 4.0 L when the pressure is 1.00 atm. At the same temperature, what is the pressure at which the volume of
Leokris [45]

<u>Answer:</u> 2.00 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

The gas is kept under the same temperature in this problem. Assuming the amount of gas is constant, we can apply the Boyle's law.

The Boyle's law equation,

P₁V₁ =  P₂V  ₂

Plug in the values,

1.00 atm x 4.0 L =  P₂  x 2.0 L

Simplify,

4.00 atm L = 2  P₂ L

Now flip the equation,

2  P₂ L = 4.00 atm L

Dividing both sides by 2 we get,

P₂ = 2.00 atm

If a molecule has an empirical formula of C2H2O and a molecular mass of 84.0 g/mol, what is the molecular formula?
lord [1]

Answer:

=C₄H₄O₂

Explanation:

Given the empirical formula of a molecule, the he the quotient of the molecular mas and and the empirical mass=constant.

84.0 g/mol/mass of(C₂H₂O)=constant

=84/(12×2+1×2×16)

=84/42

=2

Therefore, the molecular formula is (C₂H₂O)₂=C₄H₄O₂
