Answer:

The short term human induced environmental changes are pollution and deforestation. The term deforestation can be defined as the cutting down of trees in huge amount. The reason can be cutting down of trees for human settlement. Pollution can be defined as the undesirable in the environment.

The forensic technician at a crime scene has just prepared a luminol stock solution by adding 13.0 g of luminol into a total vol

Andrews [41]

Answer:

0.978 M

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of luminol (solute): 13.0 g

Volume of the solution = volume of water: 75.0 mL = 0.0750 L

We can find the molarity of the stock solution of luminol using the following expression.

M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution

M = 13.0 g / 177.16 g/mol × 0.0750 L

M = 0.978 M

An unknown compound, X is thought to have a carboxyl group with a pKa of 2.0 and another ionizable group with a pKa between 5 an

Westkost [7]

Answer:

7.3

Explanation:

By Henderson Hasselbalch equation we can calculate the pH or the pOH of a solution by its pKa. Remember that $pH = -log[H^{+}]$ , and pKa = -logKa. Ka is the equilibrium constant of the acid.

Henderson Hasselbalch equation :

$pH = pKa - log \frac{[HA]}{[A^{-}]}$

Where [HA] is the concentration of the acid, and $[A^{-}]$ is the concentration of the anion which forms the acid.

So, acid X, has two ionic forms, the carboxyl group and the other one. First, we have 0.1 mol/L of the acid, in 100 mL, so the number of moles of X

n1 = (0.1 mol/L)x(0.1 L) = 0.01 mol

When it dissociates, it forms 0.005 mol of the carboxyl group and 0.005 mol of the other group. Assuming same stoichiometry.

Adding NaOH, with 0.1 mol/L and 75 mL, the number of moles of $OH^-$ will be

n2 = (0.1 mol/L)x(0.075 L) = 0.0075 mol

So, the 0.0075 mol of $OH^-$ reacts with 0.005 mol of carboxyl, remaining 0.0025 mol of $OH^-$ , which will react with the 0.005 mol of the other group. So, it will remain 0.0025 mol of the other group.

The final volume of the solution will be 175 mL, but both concentrations (the acid form and ionic form) have the same volume, so we can use the number of mol in the equation.

Note that, the number of moles of the acid form is still 0.01 mol because it doesn't react!

So,

$6.72 = pKa - log \frac{0.01}{0.0025}$

6.72 = pKa - log 4

pKa - log4 = 6.72

pKa = 6.72 + log4

pKa = 6.72 + 0.6

pKa = 7.3

The average score for games played in the NFL is 21.1 and the standard deviation is 8.9 points. 46 games are randomly selected.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

A) P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = 0.2975

B) Q1 for the ¯x distribution = 21.9844

Explanation:

The Central Limit theorem allows us to say that

Sample mean = Population mean = 21.1 points

Mean of sampling distribution = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = population standard deviation = 8.9 points

n = sample size = 46

σₓ = (8.9/√46) = 1.3122334098 = 1.3122

A) P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) =

This is a normal distribution problem

To find this probability, we will use the normal probability tables

We first normalize/standardize 21.4317 and 22.7561.

The standardized score of any value is that value minus the mean divided by the standard deviation.

For 21.4317

z = (x - μ)/σ = (21.4317 - 21.1)/1.3122 = 0.25

For 22.7561

z = (x - μ)/σ = (22.7561 - 21.1)/1.3122 = 1.26

The required probability

P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = P(0.25 < z < 1.26)

Checking the tables

P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = P(0.25 < z < 1.26)

= P(z < 1.26) - P(z < 0.25)

= 0.89617 - 0.59871

= 0.29746 = 0.2975 to 4 d.p.

B) Q1 for the distribution is the first quartile. The first quartile is greater than 25% of the distribution.

P(x > Q1) = 0.25

Let the z-score that corresponds to Q1 be z'

P(x > Q1) = P(z > z') = 0.25

But P(z > z') = 1 - P(z ≤ z') = 0.25

P(z ≤ z') = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

From the normal distribution tables,

z' = 0.674

z' = (Q1 - μ)/σ

0.674 = (Q1 - 21.1)/1.3122

Q1 = 0.674×1.3122 + 21.1 = 21.9844228 = 21.9844 to 4 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!
