Greater the Ka value greater is the acid strength. Among these three acids HClO3 is the strongest acid, with greatest Ka and lowest pKa value (-1), Then comes HBrO3, its the second most strongest acid among the three, its Pka value is 0.7, higher than HClO3 but smaller than HIO3 (i.e. 0.77) which the weakest acid among the three.

Answer:

The partial pressure of acetic acid is 73.5 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Total pressure is 226 torr

mass of acetic acid = 126 grams

mass of methanol = 141 grams

Step 2: Calculate moles of acetic acid

moles acetic acid = mass acetic acid / molar mass acetic acid

moles acetic acid = 127 grams / 60.05 g/mol

moles acetic acid = 2.115 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of methanol

moles methanol = 141 grams / 32.04 g/mol

moles methanol = 4.40 moles

Step 4: Calculate total moles

Total moles = moles of acetic acid + moles methanol

Total moles = 2.115 moles + 4.40 moles

Total moles = 6.515 moles

Step 5: Calculate mole fraction of acetic acid

2.115 moles / 6.515 moles = 0.325

Step 6: Calculate partial pressure of acetic acid

P(acetic acid) = 0.325 * 226

P(acetic acid) = 73.45 torr ≈73.5

We can control this by calculating the partial pressure of methanol

mole fraction of methanol = (6.515-2.115)/6.515 = 0.675

P(methanol) = 0.675 * 226 = 152.55

226 - 152.55 = 73.45 torr

The partial pressure of acetic acid is 73.5 torr

if the temperature is constant what change in volume would cause the pressure of an enclosed gas to increase by a factor of 4

mezya [45]

P1V1=4P1V2
V2/V1= P1/4P1
V2/V1= 1/4
V2=1/4*V1
volume will decrease by factor 1/4

What do we know about elements with half-filled energy levels??

lisabon 2012 [21]

If the energy level of a certain element is filled based on the maximum number of allowable electrons per level, then it is no longer reactive. With this, half-filled energy level means that the element may retain those electrons and attract electrons from other elements or it may give off its electrons.
