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

What is metal and non metal
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, and are malleable (they can be hammered into sheets) and ductile (they can be drawn into wire).  Most of the metals are solids at room temperature, with a characteristic silvery shine (except for mercury, which is a liquid).  Nonmetals are (usually) poor conductors of heat and electricity, and are not malleable or ductile; many of the elemental nonmetals are gases at room temperature, while others are liquids and others are solids.

Which of the titanium-containing minerals rutile (TiO2) or ilmenite (FeTiO3) has the larger percentage of titanium?
cupoosta [38]

Rutile (TiO2) or ilmenite (FeTiO3) titanium-containing minerals  has the larger percentage of titanium is explained below.

Explanation:

1. Titanium is obtained from different ores that occur naturally on the Earth. Ilmenite (FeTiO3) and rutile (TiO2) are the most important sources of titanium.

2. According to USGS, Ilmenite(FeTio3) accounts for about 92% of the world’s consumption of titanium minerals.

3. World resources of anatase, ilmenite and rutile total more than 2 billion tonnes. Identified reserves total 750 million tonnes (ilmenite plus rutile).

4. China, with 20 million tonnes--accounting for 29% of the world total-- is now the country that is most abundant in terms of ilmenite reserves. Meanwhile, Australia, with 24 million tones rutile reserves—accounting for 50% of the world total—is now the country that is most abundant in terms of rutile reserves.

5.Ilmenite can be mined from both layered intrusive deposits and heavy mineral deposits. It is often found alongside rutile in heavy mineral deposits. Ilmenite is used to make titanium dioxide  pigment or it can be processed into feedstock that can be used in the manufacture of titanium. This has become more common as viable rutile deposits become increasingly scarce. South Africa and Australia are among the world’s largest producer of Ilmenite, each extracting over a million metric tonnes per year.

6.The Mining of titanium from intrusive rock is restricted to ilmenite and its weathered derivative leucoxene. The largest opencast ilmenite mine is Tellnes in Norway’s municipality of Sokndal.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

LOD = 0,0177

LOQ = 0,0345

Explanation:

Detection limit (LOD) is defined as the lowest signal which, with a stated probability, can be distinguished from a suitable blank signal. In the same way, quantification limit (LOQ) is defined as the lowest analyte concentration that can be quantitatively detected with a stated accuracy and precision.

There are many formulas but the most used are:

LOD = X + 3σ

LOQ = X + 10σ

Where X is average and σ is standard desvation

For the blanks readings the average X is 0,0105 and σ is 0,0024

Thus:

<em>LOD = 0,0177</em>

<em>LOQ = 0,0345</em>

I hope it helps!

zhannawk [14.2K]

In this drama, a crucible would represent the constant building action leading to the climax of the pot.

What is crucible?

A crucible is a ceramic as well as metal vessel used to melt metals or subject other substances to extremely high temperatures. Crucibles can be made from any material that can withstand temperatures high enough to melt and otherwise change their contents, despite historically being most frequently made of clay. The crucible's shape has changed over time, with designs that take into account both regional variation and the process for that they are used. The earliest crucible forms date to Iran and Eastern Europe in the sixth or fifth millennia B.C.

Similar to the contents of a crucible, the characters seem to be constantly enduring severe trials; in this case, the witching trials. The crucible would, in my opinion, symbolize the town itself and its residents. The symbolism of this suggests a theme of the townspeople going through the witching trials and coming out with a "refined" lesson. The unnecessary accusations and trials will teach a hard lesson to the people who live within the town and influence their future.
