Answer:

1.9953 × 10⁻⁸

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the indicator as:

pH = pKa + log[In⁻]/[HIn]

Where Ka is the dissociation constant of the acid.

Given, pKa = 9.7

pH = 2.0

So,  

2.0 = 9.7 + log[In⁻]/[HIn]

log[In⁻]/[HIn]  = - 7.7

<u>[In⁻]/[HIn] = Antilog (-7.7) = 1.9953 × 10⁻⁸</u>

Use the h-h equation! 

pH = pKa + log[In-/HIn]
2.0 = 9.7 + log[In-/HIn]
-7.7 = log[In-/HIn]
10^-7.7 = [In-/HIn]
[In-/HIn] = 1.995 x 10^-8

Hope this helps!

6. What is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction?<br> C+02 = CO2
Orlov [11]
<h3>\tt Kc=\dfrac{[CO_2]}{[C][O_2]}</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

C+02 = CO2

Required

The equilibrium constant

Solution

The equilibrium constant is the ratio of concentration or pressure between the product and the reactant with each reaction coefficient raised  

The equilibrium constant is based on the concentration (Kc) in a reaction  

pA + qB -----> mC + nD  

\large {\boxed {\bold {Kc ~ = ~ \frac {[C] ^ m [D] ^ n} {[A] ^ p [B] ^ q}}}}

So for the reaction :

C+O₂ ⇔ CO₂

\tt Kc=\dfrac{[CO_2]}{[C][O_2]}

The Ka for formic acid (HCO2H) is 1.8 × 10-4. What is the pH of a 0.35 M aqueous solution of sodium formate (NaHCO2)?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

9.36

Explanation:

Sodium formate is the conjugate base of formic acid.

Also,

K_a\times K_b=K_w

K_b for sodium formate is K_b=\frac {K_w}{K_a}

Given that:

K_a of formic acid = 1.8\times 10^{-4}

And, K_w=10^{-14}

So,

K_b=\frac {10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-4}}

K_b=5.5556\times 10^{-11}

Concentration = 0.35 M

HCOONa    ⇒     Na⁺ +    HCOO⁻

Consider the ICE take for the formate  ion as:

                                   HCOO⁻ + H₂O   ⇄   HCOOH + OH⁻

At t=0                              0.35                            -              -

At t =equilibrium           (0.35-x)                          x           x            

The expression for dissociation constant of sodium formate is:

K_{b}=\frac {[OH^-][HCOOH]}{[HCOO^-]}

5.5556\times 10^{-11}=\frac {x^2}{0.35-x}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.44×10⁻⁵  M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.44×10⁻⁵) = 4.64

pH + pOH = 14

So,

<u>pH = 14 - 4.64 = 9.36</u>

An element with an electronegativity of 0.9 bonds with an element with an electronegativity of 3.1.. Which phase best describes
eduard
Electronegativity is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself. When a chlorine atom covalently bonds to another chlorine atom, the shared electron pair is shared equally. The electron density that comprises the covalent bond is located halfway between the two atoms.

But what happens when the two atoms involved in a bond aren’t the same? The two positively charged nuclei have different attractive forces; they “pull” on the electron pair to different degrees. The end result is that the electron pair is shifted toward one atom.

ATTRACTING ELECTRONS: ELECTRONEGATIVITIES

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom’s strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. The following figure shows the electronegativity values of the various elements below each element symbol on the periodic table. With a few exceptions, the electronegativities increase, from left to right, in a period, and decrease, from top to bottom, in a family.

Electronegativities give information about what will happen to the bonding pair of electrons when two atoms bond. A bond in which the electron pair is equally shared is called a nonpolar covalent bond. You have a nonpolar covalent bond anytime the two atoms involved in the bond are the same or anytime the difference in the electronegativities of the atoms involved in the bond is very small.



Now consider hydrogen chloride (HCl). Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.

A bond in which the electron pair is shifted toward one atom is called a polar covalent bond. The atom that more strongly attracts the bonding electron pair is slightly more negative, while the other atom is slightly more positive. The larger the difference in the electronegativities, the more negative and positive the atoms become.

Now look at a case in which the two atoms have extremely different electronegativities — sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium chloride is ionically bonded. An electron has transferred from sodium to chlorine. Sodium has an electronegativity of 1.0, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0.

That’s an electronegativity difference of 2.0 (3.0 – 1.0), making the bond between the two atoms very, very polar. In fact, the electronegativity difference provides another way of predicting the kind of bond that will form between two elements, as indicated in the following table.

Consider the double replacement reaction given below: HgNO3(aq) + KBr(aq) → HgBr (??) + KNO3(??)The state of matter for HgBr wou
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: The state of maater for HgBr is solid.

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.  

A double displacement reaction in which one of the product is formed as a solid is called as precipitation reaction.  

The balanced chemical equation is:

HgNO_3(aq)+KBr(aq)\rightarrow HgBr(s)+KNO_3(aq)
