Chemistry

Answer:

6.22 × 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the dissociation reaction

HC₆H₅COO ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻ + H⁺

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of H⁺

The pH of the solution is 2.78.

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = antilog -pH = antilog -2.78 = 1.66 × 10⁻³ M

Step 3: Calculate the molar concentration of the benzoic acid

We will use the following expression.

Ca = mass HC₆H₅COO/molar mass HC₆H₅COO × liters of solution

Ca = 0.541 g/(122.12 g/mol) × 0.100 L = 0.0443 M

Step 4: Calculate the acid dissociation constant (Ka) for benzoic acid

We will use the following expression.

Ka = [H⁺]²/Ca

Ka = (1.66 × 10⁻³)²/0.0443 = 6.22 × 10⁻⁵

Define the law conservation of mass​
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as the system's mass cannot change, so the quantity can neither be added nor be removed.
