The first dissociation for H2X:
H2X +H2O ↔ HX + H3O
initial 0.15 0 0
change -X +X +X
at equlibrium 0.15-X X X
because Ka1 is small we can assume neglect x in H2X concentration
Ka1 = [HX][H3O]/[H2X]
4.5x10^-6 =( X )(X) / (0.15)
X = √(4.5x10^-6*0.15)
∴X = 8.2 x 10-4 m
∴[HX] & [H3O] = 8.2x10^-4
the second dissociation of H2X
HX + H2O↔ X^2 + H3O
8.2x10^-4 Y 8.2x10^-4
Ka2 for Hx = 1.2x10^-11
Ka2 = [X2][H3O]/[HX]
1.2x10^-11= y (8.2x10^-4)*(8.2x10^-4)
∴y = 1.78x10^-5
∴[X^2] = 1.78x10^-5 m
Answer:
0.0164 g
Explanation:
Let's consider the reduction of silver (I) to silver that occurs in the cathode during the electroplating.
Ag⁺(aq) + 1 e⁻ → Ag(s)
We can establish the following relations.
- 1 A = 1 C/s
- The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant)
- 1 mole of Ag(s) is deposited when 1 mole of electrons circulate.
- The molar mass of silver is 107.87 g/mol
The mass of silver deposited when a current of 0.770 A circulates during 19.0 seconds is:

Based on the diagram shown, a numerical setup for calculating the gram-formula mass for reactant 1 would be :
6(1) + 2(12) + 16
Hope this helps
