Answer:

pH = 2.462.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the reaction between nitrous acid and potassium hydroxide:

HNO_2+KOH\rightarrow KNO_2+H_2O

It is possible to compute the moles of each reactant given their concentrations and volumes:

n_{HNO_2}=0.02000L*0.1000mol/L=2.000x10^{-3}mol\\\\n_{KOH}=0.1000mol/L*0.01327L=1.327x10^{-3}mol

Thus, the resulting moles of nitrous acid after the reaction are:

n_{HNO_2}=2.000x10^{-3}mol-1.327x10^{-3}mol=6.73x10^{-4}mol

So the resulting concentration considering the final volume (20.00mL+13.27mL) is:

[HNO_2]=\frac{6.73x10^{-4}mol}{0.01327L+0.02000L} =0.02023M

In such a way, we can write the ionization of this weak acid to obtain:

HNO_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NO_2^-+H_3O^+

So we can set up its equilibrium expression to obtain x as the concentration of H3O+:

Ka=\frac{[NO_2^-][H_3O^+]}{[HNO_2]}\\\\7.1x10^{-4}=\frac{x^2}{0.02023M-x}

Next, by solving for the two roots of x, we get:

x_1=-0.004161M\\\\x_2=0.003451M

Whereas the correct value is 0.003451 M. Finally, we compute the resulting pH:

pH=-log(0.003451)\\\\pH=2.462

Best regards!

A bacterium is in a nasty environment. What sort of reproduction would it use in this situation? Why? How else would it protect
lana [24]

The bacteria in nasty environment undergoes multiple fission.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The bacteria is a unicellular prokaryotic organisms that are found in each and every places of the world. They can survive in extremes of temperatures and pH. They can save themselves through special processes in the extreme climates.

The bacteria undergoes multiple fission in these climates. They cover themselves up with a strong and tough capsule inside which they undergo several Binary fissions. This leads to the formation of multiple cells enclosed with a capsule.

With the return of the favourable climate, the capsule rupture and these newly formed cells come out.

77julia77 [94]

Explanation: cell in the body is enclosed by a cell (Plasma) membrane. The cell membrane separates the material outside the cell, extracellular, from the material inside the cell, intracellular. ... All materials within a cell must have access to the cell membrane (the cell's boundary) for the needed exchange

Answer:

b. 6.02 x 1023 molecules

Explanation:

The formula mass of ammonia is 14 + 1 × 3 = 17.

The number of moles in 27.6g ammonia is 27.6 ÷ 17 = 1.62 mol.

A mole is 6.02 × 10²³, so the number of hydrogen atoms in a 1.62 moles of ammonia is 1.62 × 6.02 × 10²³ × 3 = 2.93 × 10² atoms.
