What is the ph of 0.450 m al(no3)3 [ka for al3+(aq) = 1.00x10-5]? express your answer to two decimal places?
White raven [17]

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 2.67

Explanation :

The equilibrium chemical reaction is:

                           Al^{3+}+H_2O\rightarrow Al(OH)^{2+}+H^+

Initial conc.       0.450                   0               0

At eqm.           (0.450-x)                 x               x

As we are given:

K_a=1.00\times 10^{-5}

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

1.00\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}

x=0.00212M

The concentration of H^+ = x = 0.00212 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of solution.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.00212)

pH=2.67

Therefore, the pH of the solution is, 2.67

Determine the percent water in MgSO4*7H20?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

\% H_2O=51.2\%

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the percent water is computed by dividing the amount of water by the total mass of the hydrate; we infer we first need the molar mass of water and that of the hydrate as shown below:

MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=120.36 g/mol+7*18.02g/mol\\\\MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=246.5g/mol

Thus, the percent water is:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*MM_{H_2O}}{MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}} *100\%\\\\

So we plug in to obtain:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*18.02}{246.5} *100\%\\\\\% H_2O=51.2\%

Best regards!

Which solution is the best conductor of electric
nadezda [96]

(C) 0.1 mole of NaCl dissolved in 1,000. mL of water

<u>Explanation:</u>

The conductivity of 0.1 mole of NaCl dissolved in 1000 mL of water will be greatest as the number of ions in 0.1 mole of NaCl will be more than 0.001, 0.05 and 0.005 moles of NaCl. Greater the number of ions in the solution, greater will be the conductivity. Specific Conductivity decreases with a decrease in concentration. Since the number of ions per unit volume that carry current in a solution decrease on dilution. Hence, concentration and conductivity are directly proportional to each other.

Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2+13x=15 by method of completing the square<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 1, -7.5

Explanation:

2x² + 13x = 15

Divide the left side of the equation by 2

2(x² + 6.5x) = 15

Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient

6.5/2 = 3.25

3.25² = 10.5625

Add 10.5625 to the left side

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15

Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.

10.5625 • 2 = 21.125

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125

To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x

b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25

2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125

Divide by 2

(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625

Square root.

(x + 3.25) = √18.0625

x + 3.25 = ±4.25

Subtract 3.25.

x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1

x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5

x = 1, -7.5
