First, we need to calculate Ka in order to determine the pKa. 

The formula for Ka = x^2/ initial concentration

initial concentration= 0.0147 M

we need to find x, and we can use the pH to find it because x is the [H+] concentration.

[H+]= 10^-pH----> [H+]= 10^-2.46= 0.00347 

Ka= x^2/ initial---------> (0.00347)^2/ 0.0147= 8.18 x 10^-4

now that we have Ka, we can determine pKa using the following formula--> pKa= -log Ka

pKa= -log (8.18 x 10^-4)= 3.087

Calculate q (in units of joules) when 1.850 g of water is heated from 22 °C to 33 °C. Report only the numerical portion of your
Minchanka [31]
When q is the heat energy in joules (J)

so, according to this formula, we can get q (in joule unit):

q = M*C*ΔT

when M is the mass of the water sample = 1.85 g

C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g.°C

and Δ T is the difference in temperature (Tf-Ti) = 33 - 22 = 11°C

So, by substitution, we will get the value of q ( in Joule):

∴ q = 1.85 g * 4.18 J/g.°C * 11 °C

      = 85 J

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does the following isotope contain?<br> 27 A13+
Lapatulllka [165]

Hey there!

27 tells us the sum of protons and neutrons is 27.

Al tells us we have 13 protons.

3+ tells us that there are 3 less electrons than protons.

13 + n = 27

neutrons = 14

13 - 3 = 10 electrons

27Al3+ has 13 protons, 14 neutrons, and 10 electrons.

Hope this helps!
