Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and your knowledge of ionization to help you answer this question. Aspirin is a weak acid

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The protonated form is predominant when aspirin is absorbed more readily. The ratio of conjugate base to acid is 1 to 100.

Explanation:

Aspirin is more readily absorbed when it is protonated, that is when pH is lower than pKa (more H⁺ available in the medium). We can confirm this using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for pH = 1.5:

$pH = pKa +log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\1.5=3.5 +log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\-2.0=log(\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid} )\\10^{-2.0} =\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid}\\\frac{conjugate base}{weak acid}=0.01=\frac{1}{100}$

When aspirin is absorbed more readily the ratio of conjugate base to acid is 1 to 100, being the acid the predominant form.

There are some exceptions to the trends of first and successive ionization energies. For each of the following pairs, explain wh

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

(b) IE₂ of Ga > IE₂ of Ge

Explanation:

Electronic configuration of Ga is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s²4p¹

Electronic configuration of Ge is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s²4p²

After 1st ionisation , Ga becomes [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s² and becomes stable . Its

2 nd ionisation requires higher amount of ionisation energy. In case of Ge , there are 2 electrons in outermost orbital so it becomes stable after ionisation of 2 electrons.

g Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each are ____________ . The cis and trans isomers of a particular compound are ___

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Diasteriomers

Stereoisomers

Meso compounds

Constitutional isomers

Enantiomers

Explanation:

Isomers are compounds that posses the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

Constitutional isomers differ only in atom to atom connectivity while stereoisomers differ in arrangement of atoms in space. Stereo isomers differ in physical and chemical properties of the compounds.

When stereo isomers are non-superimpossible mirror images of each other, they are called enantiomers. Enantiomers have the same chemical and physical properties and differ only in their reaction with chiral substances.

Achiral compounds are compounds that do not exhibit chirality. Some achiral compounds contain stereogenic centers and are called meso compounds.

For the following electrochemical reaction: Al3+(aq) + 3e -> Al(s) Eº = -1.66 V E° = 2.87 F2(g) + 2e -> 2F (aq) Calculate

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: The standard electrode potential of the cell is 4.53 V.

Explanation:

We are given:

$E^o_{(F_2/F^-)}=2.87V\\E^o_{(Al^{3+}/Al)}=-1.66V$

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, fluorine will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Aluminium will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

$E^o_{cell}=2.87-(-1.66)=4.53V$

Hence, the standard electrode potential of the cell is 4.53 V.
