When adding and fractions (1/3)+(-2/5) what must you first do

Chemistry

You must first get a common denominator by multiplying (1/3) by 5 and (-2/5) by 3 to get the equation (5/15)+(-10/15)= -5/15 which can be simplified to 1/3.

Why are burning candles and rusting nails examples of chemical change?
stiv31 [10]
First Rusting is  slow oxidation of iron into iron oxide using H2O and oxygen in atmosphere which is a chemical reaction.

burning is also a oxidation but kinda fast using oxygen in atmosphere to oxidize the hydrocarbon(paraffin wax) in candle to give heat and CO2.

So they are both chemical reactions which happens at different rate.

How many atoms are present in 98.1 grams of Ar? You may report your numerical answer in scientific notation use e-notation.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

1.48 × 10²⁴ atoms

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the moles of argon

Argon is a noble gas, whose molar mass is 39.95 g/mol. We will use this data to find the moles corresponding to 98.1 grams of argon.

98.1g \times \frac{1mol}{39.95g} =2.46 mol

Step 2: Calculate the atoms of argon

In order to calculate the number of atoms of argon in 2.46 moles of argon, we have to consider the Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ atoms of Ar in 1 mole of Ar.

2.46mol \times \frac{6.02 \times 10^{23}atoms  }{1mol} = 1.48 \times 10^{24}atoms

50 mL of 0.1 M acetic acid is mixed with 50 mL of 0.1 M sodium acetate (the conjugate base). The Ka of acetic acid is approximat
trapecia [35]

Answer:

4.76

Explanation:

In this case, we have to start with the <u>buffer system</u>:

CH_3COOH~->~CH_3COO^-~+~H^+

We have an acid (CH_3COOH) and a base (CH_3COO^-). Therefore we can write the <u>henderson-hasselbach reaction</u>:

pH~=~pKa+Log\frac{[CH_3COO^-]}{[CH_3COOH]}

If we want to calculate the pH, we have to <u>calculate the pKa</u>:

pH=-Log~Ka=4.76

According to the problem, we have the <u>same concentration</u> for the acid and the base 0.1M. Therefore:

[CH_3COO^-]=[CH_3COOH]

If we divide:

\frac{[CH_3COO^-]}{[CH_3COOH]}~=~1

If we do the Log of 1:

Log~1=~zero

So:

pH~=~pKa

With this in mind, the pH is 4.76.

I hope it helps!
