Given the reaction: HSO4– + HPO42– ↔ SO42– + H2PO4-Which pair represents an acid and its conjugate base?

1 answer:

6 0

Hello!

The pair which represents an acid and its conjugate base is HSO₄⁻ and SO₄⁻².

To know if a pair of substances represents an acid and its conjugate base, one should look at the chemical structure of each substance. The conjugate base of an acid has usually the same chemical formula than the acid, but with one less proton (H⁺). Of the pairs of substances on the list, only HSO₄⁻ and SO₄⁻² have similar structures, with the only difference being the number of protons. The chemical reaction of dissociation of HSO₄⁻ is the following:

HSO₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ SO₄⁻² + H₃O⁺

For the reaction 3h2(g) + n2(g) 2nh3(g), kc = 9.0 at 350°c. calculate g° at 350°c.

miss Akunina [59]

When ΔG° is the change in Gibbs free energy

So according to ΔG° formula:

ΔG° = - R*T*(㏑K)

here when K = [NH3]^2/[N2][H2]^3 = Kc

and Kc = 9

and when T is the temperature in Kelvin = 350 + 273 = 623 K

and R is the universal gas constant = 8.314 1/mol.K

So by substitution in ΔG° formula:

∴ ΔG° = - 8.314 1/ mol.K * 623 K *㏑(9)

= - 4536

The pressure of a 609.64 gram sample of F2 in a 88.84 L container is measured to be 2770.96 torr. What is the temperature of thi

Oxana [17]

Answer : The temperature of the gas is, 245.9 K

Explanation :

To calculate the temperature of gas we are using ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT\\\\PV=\frac{w}{M}RT$

where,

P = pressure of gas = 2770.96 torr = 3.646 atm

Conversion used : (1 atm = 760 torr)

V = volume of gas = 88.84 L

T = temperature of gas = ?

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

w = mass of gas = 609.64 g

M = molar mass of $F_2$ gas = 38 g/mole

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

$(3.646atm)\times (88.84L)=\frac{609.64g}{38g/mole}\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (T)$

$T=245.9K$

Therefore, the temperature of the gas is, 245.9 K

If the composition of the reaction mixture at 400 k is [brcl] = 0.00415 m, [br2] = 0.00366 m, and [cl2] = 0.000672 m, what is th

Scorpion4ik [409]

Q is unlike K value it describes the reaction that is not at equilibrium.
by considering this reaction:
aA+ bB⇄ cC
and our reaction is:
Br2 + Cl2 ⇄ 2 BrCl

According to Q low:
Q= concentration of products/concentration of reactants
but this equation in the gaseous or aqueous states only.
∴ Q = [BrCl]^2 / [Br2] [Cl2]

and we have [Br2] = 0.00366 m [Cl2]= 0.000672 m [BrCl] = 0.00415 m

by substitution:
= [0.00415]^2 / ( [0.00366] * [0.000672])
∴ Q = 7
