ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Ratio is 1:1

Explanation:

I do not see any coefficients infront of the reactants and the products, therefore, we can automatically assume that every reactant and product is 1 mole. Don't get confused by the 4 off the O. It just means that 1 mole of sulfate has 1 zinc and 4 oxygens.

Using the systematic approach for equilibrium problems, calculate the pH of 0.05 M HOCl. Ka= 3.0*10-8 Group of answer choices 3.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The pH is equal to 4.41

Explanation:

Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:

                HClO   ⇄   ClO-  +  H+

start:          0.05            0         0

change       -x               +x       +x

balance     0.05-x         x         x

As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.

the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:

Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}

The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

3x10^{-8}=\frac{x^{2} }{0.05}

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:

x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]

the pH can be calculated by:

pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41

Drinking water may contain a low concentration of lead ion (Pb2 ) due to corrosion of old lead pipes. The EPA has determined tha
Lynna [10]

Answer:

3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

Explanation:

We can <u>define ppm as mg of Pb²⁺ per liter of water</u>.

We<u> calculate the mass of lead ion in 100 mL of water</u>:

  • 100.0 mL ⇒ 100.0 / 1000 = 0.100 L
  • 0.100 L * 0.0080 ppm = 8x10⁻⁴ mg Pb⁺²

Now we <u>convert mass of lead to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 8x10⁻⁴ mg ⇒ 8x10⁻⁴ / 1000 = 8x10⁻⁷ g
  • 8x10⁻⁷ g Pb²⁺ ÷ 207.2 g/mol = 3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²
