A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole times as fast as gas. Write the chemical formula of the gas.
Artemon [7]

A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole 0.225times as fast as gas. Write the chemical formula of the gas.

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must apply Graham's law of diffusion. This law states that "the rate of diffusion or effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass at constant temperature and pressure".

Mathematically;

                 \frac{r_{1} }{r_{2} }  = \frac{\sqrt{m_{2} } }{\sqrt{m_{1} } }

r₁ is the rate of diffusion of gas 1

r₂ is the rate of diffusion of gas 2

m₁ is the molar mass of gas 1

m₂ is the molar mass of gas 2

let gas 2 be the given H₂;

   molar mass of H₂ = 2 x 1 = 2gmol⁻¹

rate of diffusion is 0.225;

  i .e r1/r2 = 0.225

          0.225 = √2  /  √ m₁

           0.225 = 1.414 / √ m₁

           

       √ m₁  = 6.3

           m₁  = 6.3²  = 39.5g/mol

The gas is likely Argon since argon has similar molecular mass

How many O atoms are in 4C₆H₁₂O₆
ipn [44]

Number of O atoms : 24

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

C₆H₁₂O₆ compound

Required

Number of atoms

Solution

A molecular formula  shows the number of atomic elements in compound.  

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of the atoms

Glucose-C₆H₁₂O₆ is composed of 3 elements, namely C, H, and O.

The number of atoms in a compound can usually be seen from the subscript number after the atom and the reaction coefficient shows the number of molecules

So number of O atoms :

= 4 x 6 = 24 atoms

If the K a Ka of a monoprotic weak acid is 7.3 × 10 − 6 , 7.3×10−6, what is the pH pH of a 0.40 M 0.40 M solution of this acid?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

pH =3.8

Explanation:

Lets call the monoprotic weak acid HA, the dissociation equilibria in water will be:

HA + H₂O   ⇄ H₃O⁺ + A⁻    with  Ka = [ H₃O⁺] x [A⁻]/ [HA]

The pH is the negative log of the H₃O⁺ concentration, we know the equilibrium constant, Ka and the original acid concentration. So we will need to find the [H₃O⁺] to solve this question.

In order to do that lets set up the ICE table helper which accounts for the species at equilibrium:

                          HA                                   H₃O⁺                          A⁻          

Initial, M             0.40                                   0                              0

Change , M          -x                                     +x                            +x

Equilibrium, M    0.40 - x                              x                               x

Lets express these concentrations in terms of the equilibrium constant:

Ka = x² / (0.40 - x )

Now the equilibrium constant is so small ( very little dissociation of HA ) that is safe to approximate 0.40 - x to 0.40,

7.3 x 10⁻⁶ = x² / 0.40  ⇒ x = √( 7.3 x 10⁻⁶ x 0.40 ) = 1.71 x 10⁻³

[H₃O⁺] = 1.71 x 10⁻³

Indeed 1.71 x 10⁻³ is small compared to 0.40 (0.4 %). To be a good approximation our value should be less or equal to 5 %.

pH = - log ( 1.71 x 10⁻³ ) = 3.8

Note: when the aprroximation is greater than 5 % we will need to solve the resulting quadratic equation.
