Given is the ratio of conjugate base and conjugate acid of phosphoric acid. pH of a substance is the concentration of the hydrogen ions in its solution and higher this concentration lower is the value of pH.

pKa value is a measure of the strength of acid, it is the negative log of acid dissociation constant Ka.

An analysis of a sugar compound is found to contain 132 grams of carbon (C), 22 grams of hydrogen (H), and 176 grams of oxygen (
ddd [48]
132 g of C  ,   22 g of H   , 176 g of O

132 + 22 + 176 => 330 g <span>of the substance

</span>Now convert the masses in <span>moles :
</span>
C = 12.0 u        H = 1.0 u       O = 16.0 u

C = 132 / 12.0 => 11 moles

H = 22 / 1.0 => 22 moles

O = 176 / 16.0 => 11 moles

Using the values obtained the lowest proportion in mols of elements present, simply divide the values found for the least of them<span>:
</span>
C = 11 / 11 => 1

H = 22 / 11 => 2

O = 11 / 11 => 1

 formula empirically <span>is : CH</span>₂O

hope this helps!

Why won’t sugar and Citric acid leave a sediment in salad dressing??
satela [25.4K]
Because it contains vinegar because it does not form layers when mixed with other liquids. Sugar or citric acid because they don't leave sediment.

Which statements describe the six elements found in all living things? Check all that apply.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Carbon is the basis of all living things

Nitrogen is found in certain foods

Oxygen and hydrogen combine with each other to form water

Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur are found in organic compounds

Explanation:

We are all made up of mainly three elements, Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. These three elements are found in every living organism on our planet, and along with a few trace elements, they make up all the nutrients we take in and use to build our bodies and survive.

Nitrogen is primarily found in meats, and this is because nitrogen is a key element in amino acids (which are used to build proteins), however we cannot directly assimilate nitrogen from the air, so we have to assimilate it through amino acids already synthesized in plants, or in proteins found in meat.

The chemical formula for water is H₂O. Seeing the chemical formula, it is obvious that hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements in the water molecule.

In our bodies, we use phosphorus to form our skeleton and help maintain it, sulfur and nitrogen can be found in some amino acids, and carbon, hydrogen and oxygen can be found in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.

Bromine has two isotopes, Br79 and Br81. The isotopes occur in a 50:50 (1:1) ratio. Given that the mass spectrum of bromine cont
AlekseyPX

Answer:

There will be 3 peaks.

Relative height of the atomic peaks would be; 158, 160 and 162

Explanation:

We are told that Bromine has two isotopes namely 79Br and 81Br in a 1 : 1 ratio (50 : 50).

This means that a compound which contains 1 bromine atom will have two peaks in the molecular ion region but it depends on which bromine isotope is contained in the molecular ion.

Thus;

Relative height of atomic peaks is given by;

m/z = 79Br¯ 79Br+ = 158

79Br¯ 81Br+ = 160

81Br¯ 81Br+ = 162
