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⁺

Have a nice day!

What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if a 2.50 g sample releases 12 calories as its
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

c = 4016.64 j/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of substance = 2.50 g

Calories release = 12 cal (12 ×4184 = 50208 j)

Initial temperature = 25°C

Final temperature = 20°C

Specific heat of substance = ?

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Solution:

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT  = T2 - T1

ΔT  = 20°C - 25°C

ΔT  = -5°C

50208 j = 2.50 g . c. -5°C

50208 j = -12.5 g.°C .c

50208 j /-12.5 g.°C =  c

c = 4016.64 j/g.°C

Ka, the acid dissociation constant, for an acid is 9 × 10^{−4} at room temperature. At this temperature, what is the approximate
devlian [24]
Dissociation=k×no of moles
percentage of dissociation=9.0×10^-4×1×100
knowing that x%=x/100,we then say;
x/100=9.0×10^-4×1×100
therefore, x=100×100×9×10^-4×1
x=9
x percentage of dissociation=9%
