Yes, you can compost lettuce and other salad leaves. Be careful! If the salad is covered in lots of dressing, the oils or fats in the dressing may attract rats or other animals to your compost heap.

What is the ph of 0.450 m al(no3)3 [ka for al3+(aq) = 1.00x10-5]? express your answer to two decimal places?

White raven [17]

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 2.67

Explanation :

The equilibrium chemical reaction is:

$Al^{3+}+H_2O\rightarrow Al(OH)^{2+}+H^+$

Initial conc. 0.450 0 0

At eqm. (0.450-x) x x

As we are given:

$K_a=1.00\times 10^{-5}$

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

$K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$1.00\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

$x=0.00212M$

The concentration of $H^+$ = x = 0.00212 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of solution.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (0.00212)$

$pH=2.67$

Therefore, the pH of the solution is, 2.67

Which of the following statements is false concerning the formula of a compound?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

B. The number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

Explanation:

It is not always true that the number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

The chemical formulae of a compound are of two main types;

The empirical formula is that which expresses the composition of a compound in the simplest whole number ratio.
The molecular formula shows the actual ratio of the atoms in a compound.

Sometimes the number of atoms in the molecular and empirical formula can be the same.

Also, the number of atoms in the molecular formula is always greater than that of the empirical formula when they are not the same.
