To indicate the pH of a substance, one can use a dye that is both an acid and that appears as different colors in its protonated

and deprotonated forms. Suppose that you have a 0.001 M solution of a dye with a pKa of 7.2. From the color, the concentration of the protonated form, HA, is 0.0002 M. Assume that the remainder of the dye is in the deprotonated form, A−. What is the pH of the solution? Give your answer to one decimal place. g

Answer:

<em>The pH of the solution is 7.8</em>

Explanation:

The concentration of the solution is 0.001M and  the dye could be in its protonated and deprotonated forms. If the concentration of the protonated form [HA] is 0.0002 M the concentration of the deprotonated form will be the subtraction between the concentration of the bye and the concentration of the protonated form:

[A-] = 0.001M - 0.0002M = 0.0008M

Also, the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is

pH = pKa + Log \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

this equation shows the dependency between the pH of the solution, the pKa and the concentration of the protonated and deprotonated forms. Thus, replacing in the equation

pH = 7.2 + Log \frac{0.0008M}{0.0002M} = 7.8

What happens to the electrons in an ionic bond and a covalent bond?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

In ionic bonding, atoms transfer electrons to each other. Ionic bonds require at least one electron donor and one electron acceptor. In contrast, atoms with the same electronegativity share electrons in covalent bonds, because neither atom preferentially attracts or repels the shared electrons.

What's a vacuum exactly
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Vacuum: space in which there is no matter or in which the pressure is so low that any particles in the space do not affect any processes being carried on there It is a condition well below normal atmospheric pressure and is measured in units of pressure (the pascal).-the internet gave me this answer so..

Explanation:

hope this helps :)

Generally, what happens to the rate of dissolution for a solid solute when you change from stirring a solution to not stirring i
Makovka662 [10]
The rate of dissolution of a solid solute into the solution decreases when you stop stirring it. Generally, stirring increases the dissolution rate of a solid into a solution. An example is coffee with sugar, the sugar dissolves faster when stirred versus when left to dissolve on its own.

The closer an object is to the center of earth the ------------------ the gravitational force on that object
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Greater

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation, the force of gravitation is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects and INDIRECTLY proportional to the square of the distance. In short, the bigger the masses, the stronger the gravitational force, the lesser the distance between the two objects, the greater the gravitational force.
