It is a scientific hypothesis. A scientific hypothesis must be testable, however there is a significantly more grounded necessity that a testable speculation must meet before it can truly be viewed as logical. This foundation comes essentially from crafted by the rationalist of science Karl Popper, and is called "falsifiability".
Answer: The pressure of a gas will increase when there is a decrease in the volume of the gas.
Explanation: according to Boyle's law, the volume of a gas will decrease when the pressure is increased at constant temperature and vice versa.
Appropriate units for the speed of a chemical reaction, the reaction rate, are M/s
Given:
Diprotic weak acid H2A:
Ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6
Ka2 = 6.1 x 10^-9.
Concentration = 0.0650 m
Balanced chemical equation:
H2A ===> 2H+ + A2-
0.0650 0 0
-x 2x x
------------------------------
0.065 - x 2x x
ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6 = [2x]^2 * [x] / (0.065 - x)
solve for x and determine the concentration at equilibrium.
Iodic acid partially dissociates into H+ and IO3-
Assuming that x is the concentration of H+ at equilibrium, and sine the equation says the same amount of IO3- will be released as that of H+, its concentration is also X. The formation of H+ and IO3- results from the loss of HIO3 so its concentration at equilibrium is 0.20 M - x
Ka = [H+] [IO3-] / [HIO3];
<span>Initially, [H+] ≈ [IO3-] = 0 and [HIO3] = 0.20; </span>
<span>At equilibrium [H+] ≈ [IO3-] = x and [HIO3] = 0.20 - x; </span>
<span>so 0.17 = x² / (0.20 - x); </span>
<span>Solving for x using the quadratic formula: </span>
<span>x = [H+] = 0.063 M or pH = - log [H+] = 1.2.</span>
