Answer:

Yes $CH_3F$ is polar.

Explanation:

We know in polar molecules the Vector sum of all the individual bond dipole is non zero.

We know $CH_3F$ is a $sp_3$ hybridized molecule. Therefore, its configuration is tetrahedral with 3 $C-H$ bonds and on $C-F$

bond .

Since fluorine is much electronegative than hydrogen. Therefore, dipole moment of $C-F$ bond is more than dipole moment of $C-H$

bond.

Therefore, vector addition of all the bonds in $sp_3$ hybridization is non zero due to which $CH_3F$ is polar.

Calculate the ph of a dilute solution that contains a molar ratio of potassium acetate to acetic acid (pka ???? 4.76) of (a) 2:1

givi [52]

According to Hasselbach-Henderson equation:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}$

Here, $[A^{-}]$ is concentration of conjugate base and [HA] is concentration of acid.

In the given problem, conjugate base is $CH_{3}COOK$ and acid is $CH_{3}COOH$ thus, Hasselbach-Henderson equation will be as follows:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}$ ...... (1)

(a) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 2:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=2$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{2}{1}=5.06$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.06.

(b) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:3 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{3}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{3}=4.28$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.28.

(c)Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 5:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{5}{1}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{5}{1}=5.45$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.45.

(d) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=1$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{1}=4.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.76.

(e) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:10 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{10}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{10}=3.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 3.76.

What is the mass of 1.7 × 1023 atoms of zinc (Zn)?

Rudiy27

Number of moles is defined as the ratio of given mass in g to the molar mass.

The mathematical formula is:

Number of moles = $\frac{given mass in g}{molar mass}$ (1)

Number of zinc atoms is equal to $1.7\times10^{23}$ , by Avogadro number, number of moles can be calculated.

As, 1 mol= $6.022\times10^{23}$ atoms, hence,

$1.7\times10^{23}\times\frac{1 mol}{6.022\times10^{23} }$

= 0.2822 mol

Now, from formula (1), calculate mass in g (molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol)

0.2822 mol = $\frac{mass in g}{65.4 g/mol}$

mass in g = ${0.2822 mol \times 65.4 g/mol$

= 18.45588 g

Thus, by rounding off the above number, it will come near about 19 g approximately.

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.

Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, is an ionic compound with a solubility product constant, Ksp, of 6.5×10–6. Calculate the solubility

kari74 [83]

Answer: The solubility of this compound in pure water is 0.012 M

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as $K_{sp}$

The equation for the ionization of the is given as:

$Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2OH^-$

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of $Ca(OH)_2$ gives 1 mole of $Ca^{2+}$ and 2 mole of $OH^-$

When the solubility of $Ca(OH)_2$ is S moles/liter, then the solubility of $Ca^{2+}$ will be S moles\liter and solubility of $OH^-$ will be 2S moles/liter.

$K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^{-}]^2$
