The reaction that you carried out is an equilibrium reaction, with the equilibrium favoring the starting materials. However, you

recovered a high yield of the products. Explain this apparent contradiction.
Chemistry

Leto [7]3 years ago

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

One of the ways of driving a reaction towards the forward direction is the removal of one of the products. This will shift the equilibrum towards the right hand side.

Hence, by distilling one of the products from the system, the equilibrum was shifted towards the right hand side and a high percentage of product is obtained.

The Ka of a monoprotic weak acid is 0.00732. What is the percent ionization of a 0.123 M solution of this acid?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

21.60% is the percent ionization of a 0.123 M solution of this acid.

Explanation:

The equilibrium reaction for dissociation of weak acidis,

HA\rightleftharpoons A^-+H^+

initially conc.         c                       0         0

At eqm.         c(1-\alpha )                  c\alpha     c\alpha  

Concentration of the weak acid (c) = 0.123 M

Acid dissociation constant = k_a=0.00732

Degree of ionization of weak acid = \alpha

An expression of dissociation constant is given as:

k_a=\frac{(c\alpha)(c\alpha)}{c(1-\alpha )}=\frac{c\times (\alpha )^2}{(1-\alpha )}

0.00732=\frac{0.123 M\times (\alpha )^2}{(1-\alpha )}

\alpha =0.2160

Percent ionization of weak acid:

\% ionization=\frac{c\alpha }{c}\times 100

\frac{0.123 M\times 0.2160}{0.123 M}\times 100=21.60\%

Determine the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the following:
Finger [1]

The ⁴⁰₁₈X is the symbol for ⁴⁰₁₈Ar - atom and it has 18 protons, 18 electrons, and 22 neutrons.

<h3>What is Mass number ?</h3>

Mass number is the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom.

In the given element,  ⁴⁰₁₈X,  Subscript 18 is the number of proton and is also equal to the number of electron. While supercript 40 is the atomic mass.

The number of neutrons is given by subtracting the proton number from the mass number.

Therefore,

Number of Neutron = Mass Number - Atomic Number

                                 = 40 - 18

                                 = 22 Neutrons
