Answer:
If the pKa of the acid is low (negative), then the acid is strong.
Explanation:
Ka, <em>the acid ionization constant, </em>measures the strength of an acid in a solution. Stronger acids have higher Ka values.
We defined: pKa = -log[Ka]
This function is a decreasing function, meaning that pKa will be getting smaller and smaller, while increasing Ka (high values of Ka will have negative pKa values). Therefore, stronger acids (high values of Ka), will have low (negative) pKa values.
Answer: 10L
Explanation:
Given that:
Initial pressure P1 = 1 atm
New pressure P2 = 3 atm
Initial volume V2 = 30 L
New volume V2 = ?
Since pressure and volume are involved, apply the formula for Boyle's law
P1V1 = P2V2
1 atm x 30L = 3 atm x V2
30 atm L = 3 atm x V2
V2 = (30 atm L / 3 atm)
V2 = 10L
Thus, volume changed to 10 liters
Answer:
Mass = 2.89 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of NH₄Cl = 8.939 g
Mass of Ca(OH)₂ = 7.48 g
Mass of ammonia produced = ?
Solution:
2NH₄Cl + Ca(OH)₂ → CaCl₂ + 2NH₃ + 2H₂O
Number of moles of NH₄Cl:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 8.939 g / 53.5 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.17 mol
Number of moles of Ca(OH)₂ :
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 7.48 g / 74.1 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.10 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with both reactant.
NH₄Cl : NH₃
2 : 2
0.17 : 0.17
Ca(OH)₂ : NH₃
1 : 2
0.10 : 2/1×0.10 = 0.2 mol
Less number of moles of ammonia are produced by ammonium chloride it will act as limiting reactant.
Mass of ammonia:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.17 mol × 17 g/mol
Mass = 2.89 g
From the calculations, the half life of the material is 6.5 days.
<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>
The term radioactivity has to do with the spontaneous disintegration of a specie.
Uisng the formula;
N=Noe^-kt
N= amount at time t = 0.135 Ci or 4.995 ×10^9 Bq
No = amount initially present = 1.75 x 10^12 Bq
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken = 55 days
Hence;
4.995 ×10^9 = 1.75 x 10^12e^-55k
4.995 ×10^9/1.75 x 10^12 = e^-55k
2.85 * 10^-3 = e^-55k
ln2.85 * 10^-3 = -55k
k = ln2.85 * 10^-3/-55
k = 0.1066 day-1
Half life = 0.693/ 0.1066 day-1
= 6.5 days
