A rock-climbing group reached the top of Mount Everest in the Himalayan mountains. Mount Everest is about 29,000 feet above sea

level and formed by the interaction of two tectonic plates. The group leader was surprised to find fossilized marine organisms on top of the mountain. Which of the following describes the geologic history of Mount Everest?

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$P_H =2.86$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

first write the equilibrium equaion ,

$C_3H_6O_3$ ⇄ $C_3H_5O_3^{-} +H^{+}$

assuming degree of dissociation $\alpha$ =1/10;

and initial concentraion of $C_3H_6O_3$ =c;

At equlibrium ;

concentration of $C_3H_6O_3 = c-c\alpha$

$[C_3H_5O_3^{-} ]= c\alpha$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$

$K_a = \frac{c\alpha \times c\alpha}{c-c\alpha}$

$\alpha$ is very small so $1-\alpha$ can be neglected

and equation is;

$K_a = {c\alpha \times \alpha}$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$ = $\frac{K_a}{\alpha}$

$P_H =- log[H^{+} ]$

$P_H =-logK_a + log\alpha$

$K_a =1.38\times10^{-4}$

$\alpha = \frac{1}{10}$

$P_H= 3.86-1$

$P_H =2.86$

composiion ;

$c=\frac{1}{\alpha} \times [H^{+}]$

$[H^{+}] =antilog(-P_H)$

$[H^{+} ] =0.0014$

$c=0.0014\times \frac{1}{10}$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$
