Answer:

The p- nitrophenol is more acidic than phenol because the deactivating nature of nitro group and after loosing the protons it makes more resonance stabilization as nitro group is having strong deactivating nature so it attracts electrons towards it.

What is the fraction of the hydrogen atom's volume that is occupied by the nucleus? the bohr radius is 0.529×10−10m?

Arturiano [62]

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

When put a fraction of volume constant 4/3 x pi cancels out.

So only cube of radii remains.

Radius of proton = 10^-15 m (Fact; remember it)

Radius of total Hydrogen atom = 0.529 × 10^−10 m

Fraction of Volumes : R'^3/R^3 = (R/R)^3

Fraction = ((10^-15)/(0.529 × 10^−10m.))^3= (1/52900)^3 =

6.755 x 10^-15

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

pH = 2.03

Explanation:

The pH can be calculated using the following equation:

$pH = -log [H_{3}O^{+}]$ (1)

The concentration of H₃O⁺ is calculated using the dissociation constant of the next reaction:

CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

1.00 M

$K_{a} = \frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}$

Solving the above equation for H₃O⁺, we have:

$[H_{3}O^{+}] = \frac{Ka*[CH_{3}COOH]}{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}$ (2)

The dissociation constant is equal to:

$pKa = -log(Ka) \rightarrow Ka = 10^{-pKa} = 10^{-4.76} = 1.74 \cdot 10^{-5}$

Now, by solving the equation of the solubility product for Herbigon, we can find [CH₃COO⁻]:

CH₃COOX ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + X⁺

5.00x10⁻³ M

$K_{sp} = [CH_{3}COO^{-}][X^{+}]$

$[CH_{3}COO^{-}] = \frac{K_{sp}}{[X^{+}]} = \frac{9.40 \cdot 10^{-6}}{5.00 \cdot 10^{-3}} = 1.88 \cdot 10^{-3} M$

By entering the values of [CH₃COO⁻] and Ka, into equation (2) we can calculate [H₃O⁺]:

$[H_{3}O^{+}] = \frac{1.74 \cdot 10^{-5}*[1.00]}{[1.88 \cdot 10^{-3}]} = 9.26 \cdot 10^{-3} M$

Hence, the pH is:

$pH = -log [H_{3}O^{+}] = -log [9.26 \cdot 10^{-3}] = 2.03$

Therefore, the pH must be 2.03 to yield a solution in which the concentration of X⁺ is 5.00x10⁻³M.

I hope it helps you!
