Answer:

When something has a high position, its gravitational potential energy is high. For example, a book on a high bookshelf has higher potential energy than a book on the bottom shelf because it has farther to fall. ... A book on a table before it falls. A child at the top of a slide.

A buffer consists of 0.120 M HNO2 and 0.150 M NaNO2 at 25°C. pka of HNO2 is 3.40. a. What is the pH of the buffer? b. What is th

Mashcka [7]

Explanation:

It is known that $K_{a}$ of $HNO_{2}$ = $4.5 \times 10^{-4}$ .

(a) Relation between $K_{a}$ and $pK_{a}$ is as follows.

$pK_{a} = -log (K_{a})$

Putting the values into the above formula as follows.

$pK_{a} = -log (K_{a})$

= $-log(4.5 \times 10^{-4})$

= 3.347

Also, relation between pH and $pK_{a}$ is as follows.

pH = $pK_{a} + log\frac{[conjugate base]}{[acid]}$

= $3.347+ log \frac{0.15}{0.12}$

= 3.44

Therefore, pH of the buffer is 3.44.

(b) No. of moles of HCl added = $Molarity \times volume$

= $11.6 M \times 0.001 L$

= 0.0116 mol

In the given reaction, $NO^{-}_{2}$ will react with $H^{+}$ to form $HNO_{2}$

Hence, before the reaction:

No. of moles of $NO^{-}_{2}$ = $0.15 M \times 1.0 L$

= 0.15 mol

And, no. of moles of $HNO_{2}$ = $0.12 M \times 1.0 L$

= 0.12 mol

On the other hand, after the reaction :

No. of moles of $NO^{-}_{2}$ = moles present initially - moles added

= (0.15 - 0.0116) mol

= 0.1384 mol

Moles of $HNO_{2}$ = moles present initially + moles added

= (0.12 + 0.0116) mol

= 0.1316 mol

As, $K_{a}$ = $4.5 \times 10^{-4}$

$pK_{a} = -log (K_{a})$

= $-log(4.5 \times 10^{-4})$

= 3.347

Since, volume is both in numerator and denominator, we can use mol instead of concentration.

As, pH = $pK_{a} + log \frac{[conjugate base]}{[acid]}$

= 3.347+ log {0.1384/0.1316}

= 3.369

= 3.37 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that pH after the addition of 1.00 mL of 11.6 M HCl to 1.00 L of the buffer solution is 3.37.

What was Ernest Rutherford's experiment?

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.

Explanation:

In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.

He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.

Which is the most likely to be reduced?

NISA [10]

Answer : The correct option is, $Zn^{2+}$

Explanation :

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. That means, the loss of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.

According to the electrochemical series, $Zn^{2+}$ most likely to be reduced because

Hence, the ion most likely to be reduced is $Zn^{2+}$ .
