Which letter indicates the most sudden change in temperature

You determine that it takes 26.0 mL of base to neutralize a sample of your unknown acid solution. The pH of the solution was 7.82 when exactly 13 mL of base had been added, you notice that the concentration of the unknown acid was 0.1 M. What is the pKa of your unknown acid?

Answer:

The pK_a value is $pK_a =7.82$

Explanation:

From the question we are told

The volume of base is $V_B = 26.mL = 0.0260L$

The pH of solution is $pH = 7.82$

The concentration of the acid is $C_A = 0.1M$

From the pH we can see that the titration is between a strong base and a weak acid

Let assume that the the volume of acid is $V_A = 18mL= 0.018L$

Generally the concentration of base

$C_B = \frac{C_AV_A}{C_B}$

Substituting value

$C_B = \frac{0.1 * 0.01800}{0.0260}$

$C_B= 0.0692M$

When 13mL of the base is added a buffer is formed

The chemical equation of the reaction is

$HA_{(aq)} + OH^-_{(aq)} --------> A^{+}_{(aq)} + H_2 O_{(l)}$

Now before the reaction the number of mole of base is

$No \ of \ moles[N_B] = C_B * V_B$

Substituting value

$N_B = 0.01300 * 0.0692$

$= 0.0009 \ moles$

Now before the reaction the number of mole of acid is

$No \ of \ moles = C_B * V_B$

Substituting value

$N_A = 0.01800 *0.1$

$= 0.001800 \ moles$

Now after the reaction the number of moles of base is zero i.e has been used up

this mathematically represented as

$N_B ' = N_B - N_B = 0$

The number of moles of acid is

$N_A ' = N_A - N_B$

$= 0.0009\ moles$

The pH of this reaction can be mathematically represented as

$pH = pK_a + log \frac{[base]}{[acid]}$

Substituting values

$7.82 = pK_a +log \frac{0.0009}{0.0009}$

$pK_a =7.82$

A mixture was found to contain 1.05 g if silicone dioxide, 0.69 g cellulose, 1.82 g of calium carbonate. what percent of calcium

djverab [1.8K]

1,05+ 0,69 + 1,82 = 3,56g of mixture

%CaCO₃: 1,82/3,56×100% = 0,5112×100% = 51,12%

Water is poured into a conical container at the rate of 10 cm3/sec. The cone points directly down, and it has a height of 20 cm

8090 [49]

Answer:

\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{40}{9\pi}\frac{cm}{2}

Explanation:

Hello,

The suitable differential equation for this case is:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=10\frac{cm^3}{s}$

As we're looking for the change in height with respect to the time, we need a relationship to achieve such as:

$\frac{dh}{dt} = ?*\frac{dV}{dt}$

Of course, $?=\frac{dh}{dV}$ .

Now, since the volume of a cone is $V=\pi r^2h/3$ and the ratio $r/h=15/20=3/4$ or $r=3/4h$ , the volume becomes:

$V=\pi (\frac{3}{4} h)^2h/3= \frac{3}{16}\pi h^3$

We proceed to its differentiation:

$\frac{dV}{dh} =\frac{9}{16} \pi h^2\\\frac{dh}{dV} =\frac{16}{9 \pi h^2}$

Then, we compute $\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{16}{9 \pi h^2}*\frac{dV}{dt}\\\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{16}{9\pi h^2}*10\frac{cm^3}{s} =\frac{160}{9 \pi h^2}$

Finally, at h=2:

$\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{160}{9\pi 2^2}\\\frac{dh}{dt}_{h=2cm} =\frac{40}{9\pi}\frac{cm}{s}$

Best regards.
