Answer:

Ka = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

The equilibrium that takes place is:

  • HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
  • Ka = [H⁺][A⁻]/[HA]

We <u>calculate [H⁺] from the pH</u>:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]
  • [H⁺] = 10^{-pH}
  • [H⁺] = 9.12x10⁻⁴ M

Keep in mind that [H⁺]=[A⁻].

As for [HA], we know the acid is 0.66% dissociated, in other words:

  • [HA] * 0.66/100 = [H⁺]

We <u>calculate [HA]</u>:

  • [HA] = 0.138 M

Finally we <u>calculate the Ka</u>:

  • Ka = \frac{[9.12x10^{-4}]*[9.12x10^{-4}]}{[0.138]} = 6.02x10⁻⁶

Give two characteristics of liquid state<br>​
inna [77]

Answer:  Liquids have the following characteristics: no definite shape (takes the shape of its container) has definite volume. particles are free to move over each other, but are still attracted to each other. liquids have lesser densities than solids.  Intermolecular forces of attraction is weaker than solids.  They have considerable space between the particles. Liquids flow from higher to lower level.  Liquids have their boiling points above room temperature, under normal conditions.

I gave many characteristics

Hope this helps :)

Part 1. A glass bottle, which is half-filled with water, has a balloon attached to its opening. The bottle is placed in a hot wa
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to the kinetic molecular theory, the molecules that compose a gas are in constant random motion.

The temperature of a gas is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules.

When the balloon was placed in a hot water bath, the balloon becomes larger because the gas inside the balloon expands. This is because, more kinetic energy is supplied to the molecules of the gas hence they spread out.

When the balloon is placed in cold water, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules in the balloon decreases as temperature decreases hence the balloon shrinks
