Answer:
C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8
Explanation:
In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below
we Know that
pKa= -log(Ka)
therefore
A) pKa of HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)
=1.9208
B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644
C) pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45
D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)= 9.3979
If we consider the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution
The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.
So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.
Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.
Answer:
Nuclear fission
Explanation:
All nuclear reactors in operation are based on the principle of nuclear fission of Uranium nuclide to produce energy. These is produced is being controlled and is used in heating water to steam. The steam is then harnessed to drive or power steam turbines which is used for the generation of electricity.
The minerals in hard water react with soap and affect its cleaning capacity. It's still possible to use hard water when washing by using more soap. The additional soap will no longer be affected by the minerals in the water, so they can clean just as effectively, but you'll be wasting more soap this way.
Answer:
Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction of trimethylamine when it is dissolved in water is:
C₃H₉N + H₂O ⇄ C₃H₉NH⁺ + OH⁻ Kb
1 mol of trimethylamine catches a proton from the water in order to produce trimethylamonium.
It is a base, because it give OH⁻ to the medium
Expression for Kb (Molar concentration)
Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]
Answer:
-177.9 kJ.
Explanation:
Use Hess's law. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2CaO(s) ΔH = -1269.8 kJ We need to get rid of the Ca and O2 in the equations, so we need to change the equations so that they're on both sides so they "cancel" out, similar to a system of equations. I changed the second equation. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ The sign changes in the second equation above since the reaction changed direction. Next, we need to multiply the first equation by two in order to get the coefficients of the Ca and O2 to match those in the second equation. We also multiply the enthalpy of the first equation by 2. 2Ca(s) + 2CO2(g) + O2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) ΔH = -1625.6 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ Now we add the two equations. The O2 and 2Ca "cancel" since they're on opposite sides of the arrow. Think of it more mathematically. We add the two enthalpies and get 2CaO(s) + 2CO2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -355.8 kJ. Finally divide by two to get the given equation: CaO(s) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -177.9 kJ.
