The pipet used for transferring the pickle juice to the flask was dirty and consequentially some of the pickle juice stuck to th

e inside of the pipet and was not analyzed. Would the determined percentage of acetic acid in the food sample be higher or lower due to this error? Explain your answer.

Explanation:

Since, some of the given sample is stuck inside and behind the pipet. Hence, there will occur a decrease in the percent of acetic acid.

This is because a decrease in concentration of the acid will also lead to a decrease in the amount of sample taken for the estimation. Since. lesser is the amount or concentration present lesser will be its analyte concentration.

For example, we took 10 mg of a pickel sample but 3 mg of the sample remain stuck in the pipet. This means we actually titrating a  sample less than 10 mg.

Therefore, the analyte concentration in the pickel will also be less.

In a mixture of 2 ideal gases, A and B, PA = 0.2PB, what is the mole fraction of A?
Alborosie

Answer:

0.1667

Explanation:

Hello,

Dalton's law defines:

y_i=\frac{P_i}{P_T}

A total pressure is:

P_T=P_A+P_B

So, for A (solving for P_A in the previous equation, we get:

y_A=\frac{P_A}{P_A+P_B}

Since P_A=0.2P_B, we obtain:

y_A=\frac{P_A}{P_A+P_A/0.2}\\y_A=\frac{1}{6}\\y_A=0.1667}

Best regards.

Find the pH of HCl with a concentration of 0.00006M<br> Round to the nearest whole number
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

4.22

Explanation:

pH stands for potential hydrogen. The letter “p” denotes potential and the letter “H” denotes hydrogen.

pH helps to find the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution.

The number of hydrogen ions (protons) present in a solution is determined by the pH scale.

A pH greater than 7 makes the water more alkaline and a pH less than 7 makes the water more acidic.

pH=-\log [H^+]=-\log [0.00006]=4.22

Formic acid, which is a component of insect venom, has a ka = 1.8 ´ 10-4. what is the [h3o+] in a solution that is initially 0.1
scoray [572]
Answer is: concentratio of H₃O⁺ ions is 4.2·10⁻³ M.<span>
Chemical reaction: HCOOH(aq) + H</span>₂O(l) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).<span>
c(HCOOH) = 0,1 M.
[</span>H₃O⁺] = [HCOO⁻] = x.<span>
[HCOOH] = 0,1 M - x.
</span>Ka = [H₃O⁺] · [HCOO⁻] / [HCOOH].
0,00018 = x² / (0,1 M - x).<span>
Solve quadratic equation: x = </span>[H₃O⁺] = 0,0042 M.
