Answer:
0.15g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of molecules of water = 1.2 x 10²¹ molecules
Unknown:
Mass of SnO₂ = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we have to work from the known to the unknown specie;
SnO₂ + 2H₂ → Sn + 2H₂O
Ensure that the equation given is balanced;
Now,
the known species is water;
6.02 x 10²³ molecules of water = 1 mole
1.2 x 10²¹ molecules of water = = 0.2 x 10⁻²moles
Number of moles of water = 0.002moles
From the balanced chemical equation:
2 mole of water is produced from 1 mole of SnO₂
0.002 moles of water will be produced from = 0.001moles
To find the mass;
Mass = number of moles x molar mass
Molar mass of SnO₂ = 118.7 + 2(16) = 150.7g/mol
Mass = 0.001 x 150.7 = 0.15g
Answer:
The correct answer is: Ka= 5.0 x 10⁻⁶
Explanation:
The ionization of a weak monoprotic acid HA is given by the following equilibrium: HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻. At the beginning (t= 0) we have 0.200 M of HA. Then, a certain amount (x) is dissociated into H⁺ and A⁻, as is detailed in the following table:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
t= 0 0.200 M 0 0
t -x x x
t= eq 0.200M -x x x
At equilibrium, we have the following ionization constant expression (Ka):
Ka=
Ka=
Ka=
From the definition of pH, we know that:
pH= - log [H⁺]
In this case, [H⁺]= x, so:
pH= -log x
3.0= -log x
⇒x = 10⁻³
We introduce the value of x (10⁻³) in the previous expression and then we can calculate the ionization constant Ka as follows:
Ka= =
= 5.025 x 10⁻⁶= 5.0 x 10⁻⁶
