Missing in your question Ka2 =6.3x10^-8
From this reaction:
H2SO3 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HSO3-
by using the ICE table :
H2SO3 ↔ H3O + HSO3-
intial 0.6 0 0
change -X +X +X
Equ (0.6-X) X X
when Ka1 = [H3O+][HSO3-]/[H2SO3]
So by substitution:
1.5X10^-2 = (X*X) / (0.6-X) by solving this equation for X
∴ X = 0.088
∴[H2SO3] = 0.6 - 0.088 = 0.512
[HSO3-] = [H3O+] = 0.088
by using the ICE table 2:
HSO3- ↔ H3O + SO3-
initial 0.088 0.088 0
change -X +X +X
Equ (0.088-X) (0.088+X) X
Ka2= [H3O+] [SO3-] / [HSO3-]
we can assume [HSO3-] = 0.088 as the value of Ka2 is very small
6.3x10^-8 = (0.088+X)*X / 0.088
X^2 +0.088 X - 5.5x10^-9= 0 by solving this equation for X
∴X= 6.3x10^-8
∴[H3O+] = 0.088 + 6.3x10^-8
= 0.088 m ( because X is so small)
∴PH= -㏒[H3O+]
= -㏒ 0.088 = 1.06
Usually it is the CuSO4 that is the limiting reagent.
<span>if all of the color of the solution was gone, but there was still some zinc metal mixed in with the copper metal produced, then Zn is the excess reagent </span>
<span>f all of the color of the solution was not gone, but there was no zinc metal left in with the blue copper solution , then Zn is the limiting reagent Hope this helps.</span>
Hair is dead skin cells that pile on top of each other to "grow".
Increased upwelling in a coastal area results to more aquatic life. Upwelling is the process in which deep, cold water rises towards the surface. It is an oceanographic phenomenon that involves wind driven motion of the dense, cooler and usually nutrient-rich water towards the ocean surface replacing the warmer usually nutrient depleted surface water.
