Answer:
A positive ions is always smaller than the corresponding atom.
A negative ion is always larger than the corresponding atom.
Explanation:
The reason for this is that, when a positive ion is formed, a full shell is usually removed with its electrons thereby reducing the size of the electron cloud and decreasing the size of the electron cloud.
A negative ion is formed by addition of more electrons to the electron cloud hence it spreads out. Interelectronic repulsion accounts for the larger size of the negative ion.
Answer:
a) [A⁻]/[HA] = 0.227
b) [A⁻]/[HA] = 0.991
c) [A⁻]/[HA] = 2.667
Explanation:
In the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, HA stands from an acid an A⁻ stands from its conjugate base, as follows:
pH = pka + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
pH = 4.874 + Log[CH₃CH₂CO₂⁻]/[CH₃CH₂CO₂H]
4.23 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
-0.644 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
0.227 = [A⁻]/[HA]
4.87 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
-0.004 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
0.991 = [A⁻]/[HA]
5.30 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
0.426 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
2.667 = [A⁻]/[HA]
Answer:
Number of neutrons is equal to 148.
