Answer:
Cl
Explanation:
chlorine (2,8,7) is a non metal with highest electronegativity. Hence, it is most likely to form a negative ion with charge −1.

Complete Question
You determine that it takes 26.0 mL of base to neutralize a sample of your unknown acid solution. The pH of the solution was 7.82 when exactly 13 mL of base had been added, you notice that the concentration of the unknown acid was 0.1 M. What is the pKa of your unknown acid?
Answer:
The pK_a value is
Explanation:
From the question we are told
The volume of base is 
The pH of solution is 
The concentration of the acid is 
From the pH we can see that the titration is between a strong base and a weak acid
Let assume that the the volume of acid is 
Generally the concentration of base

Substituting value


When 13mL of the base is added a buffer is formed
The chemical equation of the reaction is

Now before the reaction the number of mole of base is
![No \ of \ moles[N_B] = C_B * V_B](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=No%20%5C%20of%20%5C%20moles%5BN_B%5D%20%20%3D%20%20C_B%20%2A%20V_B)
Substituting value

Now before the reaction the number of mole of acid is

Substituting value


Now after the reaction the number of moles of base is zero i.e has been used up
this mathematically represented as

The number of moles of acid is


The pH of this reaction can be mathematically represented as
![pH = pK_a + log \frac{[base]}{[acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%20%3D%20pK_a%20%2B%20log%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Bbase%5D%7D%7B%5Bacid%5D%7D)
Substituting values

Answer:
May be the instrument is incorrect or may be error in it.
Explanation:
The copper have not been detected by this test because the test may be not for the detection of copper, may be it is used for identification of another minerals. If there is copper in the lake sample but can't be detected in the test so it means that the instrument which is used for detection is not the right one or having error in that instrument. Every mineral has a specific type of instrument that detect its presence, if we use incorrect instrument for the mineral then we can't detect the presence of that specific mineral.
Because the reactants react with each other and chemically react to produce a different product like with fire when it reacts with the wood it burns and the product left behind is a new different substance from the reactants in this case the product is ash
Answer:
The volume of the sample is 17.4L
Explanation:
The reaction that occurs requires the same amount of CO and NO. As the moles added of both reactants are the same you don't have any limiting reactant. The only thing we need is the reaction where 4 moles of gases (2mol CO + 2mol NO) produce 3 moles of gases (2mol CO2 + 1mol N2). The moles produced are:
0.1800mol + 0.1800mol reactants =
0.3600mol reactant * (3mol products / 4mol reactants) = 0.2700 moles products.
Using Avogadro's law (States the moles of a gas are directly proportional to its pressure under constant temperature and pressure) we can find the volume of the products:
V1n2 = V2n1
<em>Where V is volume and n moles of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas</em>
Replacing:
V1 = 23.2L
n2 = 0.2700 moles
V2 = ??
n1 = 0.3600 moles
23.2L*0.2700mol = V2*0.3600moles
17.4L = V2
<h3>The volume of the sample is 17.4L</h3>
