Explanation:

It is known that 1 gram contains 1000 milligrams. And, mathematically we can represent it as follows.

$\frac{1 g}{1000 mg}$ or $\frac{1000 mg}{1 g}$

So, when we have to convert grams into milligrams then we simply multiply the digit with 1000. And, if we have to convert a digit from milligrams to grams then we simply divide it by 1000.

Two weak acids, A and B, have pKa values of 4 and 6, respectively. Which statement is true?A) Acid A dissociates to a greater ex

zalisa [80]

Answer:

A) Acid A dissociates to a greater extent in water than acid B

Explanation:

A) Acid A dissociates to a greater extent in water than acid B

We are given the pKa for both acids, and we know

pKa = - log Ka

Taking antilog to both sides of the equation we can solve for Ka

⇒ -pKa = log Ka

-antilog pKa = Ka

10 ^-pka = Ka

So ka for acid A = 10⁻⁴

and

ka for acid B = 10⁻⁶

True the equilibrium constant for acid A is greater, so it dissociates more.

B) For solutions of equal concentration, acid B will have a lower pH.

We know the stronger acid is A, and it dissociates more. Since pH is the negative log of H₃O⁺ concentration, it follows that at equal concentrations the acid A will have at equilibrium a greater [H₃O⁺] and hence a lower pH

C) B is the conjugate base of A

False:

If B were the conjugate base of A, its Kb would have been given by:

Ka x Kb = Kw

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴/10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁸ for the conjugate base of acid B

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴/10⁻⁴ = 10⁻¹⁰ for the conjugate base of acid A

which are not equal.

D) Acid A is more likely to be a polyprotic acid than acid B.

False

Just having the pkas for both acids one cannot know if any of the acids is polyprotic. We will need the formula for the acids.

E) The equivalence point of acid A is higher than that of acid B

False

The equivalence point depends on the the concentration of the acids and their volumes.

The equivalence point is reached in the titration when the number of equivalents of base equals the number of equivalents of acid:

# equivalents acid = # equivalents of base @ end point

and

# equivalents acid = Molarity of acid x Volume of acid

A tank holds 6.90 m3 of water. What is the volume in ft3? (3.28 ft = 1 m, Remember significant figures, but this answer does not

AleksAgata [21]

Volume of tank = $6.9 m^{3}$ (given)

Since, $1 m = 3.28 ft$

So,

$1 m^{3} = 35.287 ft^{3}$

For $6.9 m^{3}$ :

$6.9\times 35.287 ft^{3} = 243.4803 ft^{3}$

The significant rule for multiplication, states that the number of significant figures in the answer obtained by multiplication is determined by the value with the lowest number of significant digits.

Since, the minimum number of decimal places in the above multiplication operation is 1 so, the final result must be upto 1 decimal place only.

$243.4803 ft^{3} \simeq 243.5 ft^{3}$

Hence, volume in $ft^{3}$ is 243.5.

C2H5OH(aq) + MnO− 4 (aq) → Mn2+(aq) + CH3COOH(aq) of acetic acid from ethanol by the action of permanganate ion in acidic soluti

Andreas93 [3]

Answer :

Ethanol $(C_2H_5OH)$ act as reducing agent.

The smallest possible integer coefficient of $MnO_4^-$ in the combined balanced equation is, 4

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The given chemical reaction is,

$C_2H_5OH(aq)+MnO_4^-(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(aq)+Mn^{2+}(aq)$

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : $C_2H_6O\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2$

Reduction : $MnO_4^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}$

Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : $C_2H_6O+H_2O\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2$

Reduction : $MnO_4^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}+4H_2O$

Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : $C_2H_6O+H_2O\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+4H^+$

Reduction : $MnO_4^-+8H^+\rightarrow Mn^{2+}+4H_2O$

Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : $C_2H_6O+H_2O\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+4H^++4e^-$

Reduction : $MnO_4^-+8H^++5e^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}+4H_2O$

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply the oxidation reaction by 5 and reduction reaction by 4 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : $5C_2H_6O+5H_2O\rightarrow 5C_2H_4O_2+20H^++20e^-$

Reduction : $4MnO_4^-+32H^++20e^-\rightarrow 4Mn^{2+}+16H_2O$

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

$5C_2H_6O+4MnO_4^-+12H^+\rightarrow 5C_2H_4O_2+4Mn^{2+}+11H_2O$

In the redox reaction ethanol act as reducing agent and permanganate ion act as an oxidizing agent.
