First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄ ⇄ H⁺ + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M 0 0
0.0356 - x x x
Ka1 =
![\frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BHC2O4%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BH2C2O4%5D%7D%20)
= x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6
Answer: 68
Explanation:
Isotopes of an element have same number of protons but different number of neutrons. Which means isotopes of an element have same atomic number but different mass number.
Atomic number is equal to the number of protons or the number of electrons for a neutral atom and is specific to a particular element.
Mass number is the sum of number of protons and the number of neutrons.
Given : atomic number of element Q = 68 = number of protons
Mass number of isotope Q-136 = 136
But as isotopes have same atomic number, the number of protons will be same and hence there are 68 protons are in a neutral atom of this isotope.
Answer:
only chlorine can expand its octet.
Explanation:
An atom can expand its octet is it has empty d orbital
the electronic configuration of given elements will be:
B : 1s2 2s2 2p1 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
O :1s2 2s2 2p4 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
F : 1s2 2s2 2p5 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Cl :1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 3d0 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Out of given elements only chlorine has empty d orbitals in its valence shell
Thus only chlorine can expand its octet.
Examination by a test; experiment, as in chemistry, metallurgy, etc.
Answer:
RbI<RbBr<RbCl<RbF
Explanation:
As stated in the question, the latice energy depends on the relative size of the ions. When the action size is constant as in the question, the lattice energy now depends on the relative of the anions. The order of increase in ionic sizes among the halide ions is fluoride<Chloride<Bromide<Iodide. This order of increasing size means that the lattice energy will decrease accordingly as shown in the answer.
