A 0.12 M solution of an acid that only slightly ionizes in solution would be termed a weak acid. Weak acids are acids which do not completely dissociate in water. Thus lowering the presence of hydronium ions which measures the pH of an acid.  <span />

Explanation:

An acid is a specie that donates hydrogen ions, that is, H^{+} ions.

When an acid gives or dissociates to produce more number of hydrogen ions then it is known as strong acid.

Whereas when an acid gives or dissociates to produce few or very less number of hydrogen ions then it is known as weak acid.

Therefore, when a 0.12m solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed as weak acid because it is giving less number of hydrogen ions.

What is the ph of a solution of 0.400 m k2hpo4, potassium hydrogen phosphate?
dusya [7]
When we can get Pka for K2HPO4 =6.86 so we can determine the Ka :

when Pka = - ㏒ Ka

          6.86 = -㏒ Ka 

∴Ka = 1.38 x 10^-7

by using ICE table:

               H2PO4- →  H+  + HPO4
initial      0.4 m            0         0

change     -X                +X       +X

Equ       (0.4-X)               X          X

when Ka = [H+][HPO4] / [H2PO4-]

by substitution:

1.38 X 10^-7 = X^2 / (0.4-X)   by solving for X

∴X = 2.3x 10^-4 

∴[H+] = X = 2.3 x 10^-4

∴PH = -㏒[H+]

        = -㏒ (2.3 x 10^-4)
 ∴PH  =  3.6

A 75 lb (34 kg) boy falls out of a tree from a height of 10 ft (3 m). i. What is the kinetic energy of the boy when he hits the
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Kinetic energy of boy just before hitting the ground is \approx1000 J.

Speed of boy just before hitting the ground is 7.67 m/s

or 17.16 mi/hr.

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of boy = 75lb = 34 kg

Height, h = 10ft = 3m

To find:

Kinetic energy of boy when he hits the ground.

<em>As per law of conservation of energy The potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy.</em>

<em></em>

<em></em>\therefore<em> </em>Kinetic energy at the time boy hits the ground = Initial potential energy of the boy when he was at the Height 'h'

The formula for potential energy is given as:

PE = mgh

Where m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

h is the height of object

Putting all the values:

PE = 34 \times 9.8 \times 3 \approx 1000\ J

Hence, Kinetic energy is \approx1000 J.

Formula for Kinetic energy is:

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

where m is the mass and

v is the speed

Putting the values and finding v:

1000 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 34 \times v^2\\\Rightarrow v^2 = 58.82\\\Rightarrow v = 7.67\ m/s

Given that:

1 m = 1.094 yd and 1 mi = 1760 yd

\Rightarrow 1609\ m = 1\ mi

Converting 7.67 m/s to miles/hour:

\dfrac{7.67 \times 3600}{1609}=17.16\ mi/h

Only one isotope of this element occurs in nature. one atom of this isotope has a mass of 9.123 ✕ 10-23 g. identify the element
o-na [289]

The atom has only one isotope which means 100 % of same atom is present in nature. The atomic mass of an element is the number of times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of carbon taken as 12. Mass of one atom of that isotope is 9.123 ✕ 10⁻²³ g, so mass of one mole of atom that is Avogadro's number of atom is 6.023 X 10²³  X 9.123 X 10⁻²³ g=54.94 g = 55 g (approximate).

So, the atom having atomic mass 55 will be Cesium (Cs). Only one isotope of Cesium is stable in nature.

In a few sentences, describe the molecular polarity and the intermolecular forces present in ammonium lauryl sulfate.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. A diatomic molecule that consists of a polar covalent bond, such as HF, is a polar molecule. The two electrically charged regions on either end of the molecule are called poles, similar to a magnet having a north and a south pole. A molecule with two poles is called a dipole. Hydrogen fluoride is a dipole. A simplified way to depict polar molecules is pictured below When placed between oppositely charged plates, polar molecules orient themselves so that their positive ends are closer to the negative plate and their negative ends are closer to the positive plate

Experimental techniques involving electric fields can be used to determine if a certain substance is composed of polar molecules and to measure the degree of polarity.

For molecules with more than two atoms, the molecular geometry must also be taken into account when determining if the molecule is polar or nonpolar. is a comparison between carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a linear molecule. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than the carbon atom, so there are two individual dipoles pointing outward from the C atom to each O atom. However, since the dipoles are of equal strength and are oriented in this way, they cancel each other out, and the overall molecular polarity of CO2 is zero.

Water is a bent molecule because of the two lone pairs on the central oxygen atom. The individual dipoles point from the H atoms toward the O atom. Because of the shape, the dipoles do not cancel each other out, and the water molecule is polar. In the figure, the net dipole is shown in blue and points upward.

Some other molecules are shown below (Figure below). Notice that a tetrahedral molecule such as CH4 is nonpolar. However, if one of the peripheral H atoms is replaced by another atom that has a different electronegativity, the molecule becomes polar. A trigonal planar molecule (BF3) may be nonpolar if all three peripheral atoms are the same, but a trigonal pyramidal molecule (NH3) is polar.
