Answer:

[base]=0.28M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation one can compute the concentration of acetate, which acts as the base, as shown below:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{[base]}{[acid]} )\\\\\frac{[base]}{[acid]}=10^{pH-pKa}\\\\\frac{[base]}{[acid]}=10^{4.9-4.76}\\\\\frac{[base]}{[acid]}=1.38\\\\

[base]=1.38[acid]=1.38*0.20M=0.28M

Regards.

0.750mol of gas are stored in a tank at a pressure of 275kpa and a temperature of 0.00 degrees * C What is the volume of the tan
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The volume on the tank is 6, 20 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the units of pressure in kPa into atm and temperature in Celsius into Kelvin:

0°C=273K

101,325kPa---1 atm

275kPa --------x=(275kPax 1 atm)/101,325kPa= 2,71 atm

PV=nRT --> V=nRT/P

V= 0,750 mol x 0,082 l atm /K mol x 273 K/ 2, 71 atm= <em>6, 20 L</em>

Heat energy is useful to us in all the following ways except:
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Heat energy is transferred to cooler objects to reduce the temperature of those objects.

Explanation:

The fourth option is not correct.

A correct way of writing it would be : " Heat energy is transferred from cooler objects to reduce the temperature of those objects.". When an object loses heat energy, its temperature reduces. Conversely, when an object receives heat energy, its temperature increases.
