a)

OCH₃⁻ + H₂O →  CH₃OH <em>(methanol) </em>+ OH⁻ <em>(hydroxide)</em>

here, the methoxide ion acted as a base, by bonding with the hydrogen atom released by water to form methanol and hydronium ion

b)

ClO⁻ + H₂O → HClO + OH⁻ <em>(hydroxide)</em>

The Hypochlorite ion bonded with the proton released by water, to form Hypochlorous acid and hydronium ion

A monoprotic weak acid when dissolved in water is 0.66% dissociated and produces a solution with a pH of 3.04. Calculate the Ka
raketka [301]

Answer:

Ka = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

The equilibrium that takes place is:

  • HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
  • Ka = [H⁺][A⁻]/[HA]

We <u>calculate [H⁺] from the pH</u>:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]
  • [H⁺] = 10^{-pH}
  • [H⁺] = 9.12x10⁻⁴ M

Keep in mind that [H⁺]=[A⁻].

As for [HA], we know the acid is 0.66% dissociated, in other words:

  • [HA] * 0.66/100 = [H⁺]

We <u>calculate [HA]</u>:

  • [HA] = 0.138 M

Finally we <u>calculate the Ka</u>:

  • Ka = \frac{[9.12x10^{-4}]*[9.12x10^{-4}]}{[0.138]} = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Which of the following statements is true about the food chain below? Grass ⇒ grasshopper ⇒ bird ⇒ hawk The amount of energy tra
lorasvet [3.4K]

In a food chain we arrange the energy in the form of a pyramid.

The producers are on the base of pyramid and then consumers are towards peak.

in the given food chain grass is being eaten by grasshopper which are food of birds.

Grasshoppers are also eaten up by Hawks. so both brids and hawks are feeding upon grasshoppers thus the amount of energy transferred from the grass to the grasshopper is the same as the amount of energy transferred from the grasshopper to the bird.

The radioactivity due to carbon-14 measured in a piece of a wooden casket from an ancient burial site was found to produce 20 co
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

17202.6 years

Explanation:

Activity of the living sample (Ao) = 160 counts per minute

Activity of the wood sample (A) = 20 counts per minute

Half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

t= age of the artifact

From;

0.693/t1/2= 2.303/t log Ao/A

Then;

0.693/ 5730= 2.303/t log Ao/A

Substituting values;

0.693/5730= 2.303/t log (160/20)

Then we obtain;

1.209×10^-4 = 2.0798/t

t= 2.0798/1.209×10^-4

Thus;

t= 17202.6 years

Therefore the artifact is 17202.6 years old.

5.36 liters of nitrogen gas are at STP. What would be the new volume if we increased the moles from 3.5 moles to 6.0 moles?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

V_2=9.20L

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given STP (standard pressure and temperature), it is possible for us to realize that the equation to use here is the Avogadro's law as a directly proportional relationship between moles and volume:

\frac{V_2}{n_2}= \frac{V_1}{n_1}

In such a way, given the initial volume and both initial and final moles, we can easily compute the final volume as shown below:

V_2= \frac{V_1n_2}{n_1} \\\\V_2=\frac{5.36L*6.0mol}{3.5mol}\\\\V_2=9.20L

Best regards!
