Answer:
pKa of the acid HA with given equilibrium concentrations is 6.8
Explanation:
The dissolution reaction is:
HA ⇔ H⁺ + A⁻
So at equilibrium, Ka is calculated as below
Ka = [H⁺] x [A⁻] / [HA] = 2.00 x 10⁻⁴ x 2.00 x 10⁻⁴ / 0.260
= 15.38 x 10⁻⁸
Hence, by definition,
pKa = -log(Ka) = - log(15.38 x 10⁻⁸) = 6.813
Answer:
The reaction will be spontaneous
Explanation:
To determine if the reaction will be spontaneous or not at this temperature, we need to calculate the Gibbs's energy using the following formula:
<u>If the Gibbs's energy is negative, the reaction will be spontaneous, but if it's positive it will not.</u>
Calculating the
:
Now, other factor we need to determine is the sign of the S variation. When talking about gases, the more moles you have in your system the more enthropic it is.
In this reaction you go from 7 moles to 8 moles of gas, so you can say that you are going from one enthropy to another higher than the first one. This results in:
If the variation of S is positive, the Gibbs's energy will be negative always and the reaction will be spontaneous.
Anomalous data on a graph would show up as say a very high or very low value which does not fit in with the normal values which may be background values.If it was a straight line graph then the anomalous point would plot well above or below the line or if it was a bar graph ie a histogram it would be much higher or lower than the surrounding data. In mineral exploration, anomalies are looked for in say geophysics or geochemistry data values for high or low magnetism or conductivity or high chemical values indicating the presence of valuable minerals at that point.
Answer:
The first one is B, "Decreasing surface area."
Explanation:
This is because greater the surface area exposed, the more collisions that occur between the solvent and solute. I also just took the test myself and got it correct.
