The indicator propyl red has a Ka of 3.3 X 10-6 . It is red at low pH and yellow at higher pH. What is the approximate pH range

over which it changes color
Chemistry

Alik [6]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

4.48 - 6.48

Explanation:

A pH indicator works in a better way in a range of pH = pKa ± 1. That means we need to determine the pKa of the indicator propyl red to find the range over which it change its color. That is:

pKa = -log Ka

pKa = -log 3.3x10⁻⁶

pKa = 5.48

That means the range over propyl red will change from yellow to red or vice versa is:

4.48 - 6.48

How many gallons of 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifre
Anarel [89]
Let A be the 80% solution and B be the 20% solution and P be the produce solution of 70%. Va and Vb and Vp are the volumes of A and B and P respectively.
Va + 60 = Vp
0.7Vp = 0.8Va + 0.2(60)
Substituting the value of Vp from the first equation:
0.7(Va + 60) = 0.8Va + 12
30 = 0.1Va
Va = 300 gallons

The mass of water in a single popcorn kernel was found to be 0.905 grams after it popped at a temperature of 175 °C. Using the i
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0.583 kilojoules

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to pop a single kernel can be calculated using the formula as follows:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (J)

m = mass of water (g)

c = specific heat capacity of water (4.184 J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature

From the given information, m = 0.905 g, initial temperature (room temperature) = 21°C , final temperature = 175°C, Q = ?

Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 0.905 × 4.184 × (175°C - 21°C)

Q = 3.786 × 154

Q = 583.044 Joules

In kilojoules i.e. we divide by 1000, the amount of heat is:

= 583.04/1000

= 0.583 kilojoules

An ideal gas differs from a real gas in that the molecules of an ideal gas __________. a have a molecular weight of zero b have
Rasek [7]
An ideal gas differs from a real gas in that the molecules of an ideal gas have no attraction for one another. 
An ideal gas is defined as one in which collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly elastic and in which there are no inter-molecular attractive forces. A real gas on the other hand is a gas that does not behave as an ideal gas due to interactions between gas molecules. Particles in a real gas have a real volume since real gases are made up of molecules or atoms that typically take up some space even though they are extremely small.
