Chemistry

Answer:

pH = 6.999

The solution is acidic.

Explanation:

HBr is a strong acid, a very strong one.

In water, this acid is totally dissociated.

HBr + H₂O  →  H₃O⁺  +  Br⁻

We can think pH, as - log 7.75×10⁻¹² but this is 11.1

acid pH can't never be higher than 7.

We apply the charge balance:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + [OH⁻]

All the protons come from the bromide and the OH⁻ that come from water.

We can also think [OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺] so:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + Kw / [H⁺]

Now, our unknown is [H⁺]

[H⁺] =  7.75×10⁻¹² + 1×10⁻¹⁴ / [H⁺]

[H⁺] = (7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] + 1×10⁻¹⁴) /  [H⁺]

This is quadratic equation:  [H⁺]² - 7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] - 1×10⁻¹⁴

a = 1 ; b = - 7.75×10⁻¹² ; c = -1×10⁻¹⁴

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac) / (2a)

[H⁺] = 1.000038751×10⁻⁷

- log [H⁺] = pH → 6.999

A very strong acid as HBr, in this case, it is so diluted that its pH is almost neutral.

Calcium carbide ( CaC2) reacts with water to produce acetylene (C2H2) as shown in the unbalanced reaction below: CaC2(s)+H2O(g)-
MaRussiya [10]
Answer:
46.3g H2O

Explanation:
start by balancing it: CaC2(s) + 2H2O(g) -> Ca(OH)2(s) + C2H2(g)

then use factor label method to solve

82.4g CaC2 x (1 mol CaC2/64.10g CaC2) x (2 mol H2O/1 mol CaC2) x (18.016g H2O/1 mol H20) = 46.3g H2O

How many atoms does 2.0 moles of He represent
Rudiy27

We use the following formula to calculate the number of atoms:

n (mol) = N(number of atoms) / NA

N(He) = n(mol) · NA

N(He) = 2,0 moles · 6.02·1023 = 12.04·1023 atoms

The reaction 2a → a2​​​​​ was experimentally determined to be second order with a rate constant, k, equal to 0.0265 m–1min–1. if
olga nikolaevna [1]
According to the second order formula:
1/[At] = K t + 1/[Ao]
and when we have the K constant =0.0265 & we have t = 180 min & we have the initial concentration of A = 4.25 so by substitution:

1/[At]  = 0.0265 X 180min + 1/4.25 
1/[At] = 5
∴[At] = 1/5 = 0.2 m
