If a solution of hf (ka = 6.8 10-4) has a ph of 3.67, calculate the total concentration of hydrofluoric acid.

1 answer:

3 0

When PH = ㏒(H^+)
[H+] = 10^-3.67
[H+] = 2.14x 10^-4

so according to the reaction equation:
HF ↔ H^+ + F^-
at equilibrium X-(2.14x10^-4) (2.14x10^-4) (2.14x10^-4)

by substitution in Ka formula:
Ka = [H+][F]-/[HF]
6.8x10^-4 = (2.14x10^-4)*(2.14x10^-4) /(X-2.4x10^-4)
X-2.4x10^-4 = (4.58x10^-8)* (6.8x10^-4)
∴X = 2.4x10^-4
∴[HF] = X- (2.14x10^-4)= (2.4x10^-4)-(2.14x10^-4) = 2.6 X 10^-5

Answer:

CN^- is a strong field ligand

Explanation:

The complex, hexacyanoferrate II is an Fe^2+ specie. Fe^2+ is a d^6 specie. It may exist as high spin (paramagnetic) or low spin (diamagnetic) depending on the ligand. The energy of the d-orbitals become nondegenerate upon approach of a ligand. The extent of separation of the two orbitals and the energy between them is defined as the magnitude of crystal field splitting (∆o).

Ligands that cause a large crystal field splitting such as CN^- are called strong field ligands. They lead to the formation of diamagnetic species. Strong field ligands occur towards the end of the spectrochemical series of ligands.

Hence the complex, Fe(CN)6 4− is diamagnetic because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand that causes the six d-electrons present to pair up in a low spin arrangement.

A compound with molecular formula C6H9No that has an amide functional group and does not have an alkene group

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Explanation:

$\to C_6H_9NO$

calculating the HOI:

$= \frac{2C+2+N-H-X}{2} \\\\ =\frac{2\times 6+2+1-9-0}{2}\\\\ =\frac{12-6}{2}\\\\=\frac{6}{2}\\\\=3$

So, in the above compund there are three bounds or we can say that one is double and two bound is single.
