PH is calculated using <span>Handerson- Hasselbalch equation,

                                      pH  =  pKa  +  log [conjugate base] / [acid]

Conjugate Base  =  Acetate (CH</span>₃COO⁻)
Acid                    =  Acetic acid (CH₃COOH)
So,
                                      pH  =  pKa  +  log [acetate] / [acetic acid]

We are having conc. of acid and acetate but missing with pKa,
pKa is calculated as,

                                     pKa  =  -log Ka
Putting value of Ka,
                                     pKa  =  -log 1.76 × 10⁻⁵

                                     pKa  =  4.75
Now,
Putting all values in eq. 1,
                     
                                     pH  =  4.75 + log [0.172] / [0.818]

                                     pH  =  4.072

Bismuth(III) sulfate is an ionic compound formed from Bi3+ and SO42-. What is the correct way to represent the formula?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Bi2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Bismuth(iii) sulfate is an ionic compound therefore, their is transfer of electron. Ionic compound has both cations and anions. The cations is positively charged ion while the anions is negatively charged ions. The cations loses electron to become positively charged while the anions gains electron to become negatively charged.

From the compound above, Bismuth(iii) sulfate the cations will be Bismuth ion which loses 3 electrons. The anions is the sulfate ion (S04)2- with a -2 charge.

The chemical formula can be computed from the charge configuration as follows

Bi3+  and (SO4)2-

cross multiply the charges living the sign behind to get the chemical formula

Bi2(SO4)3

Note the final chemical formula, the numbers are sub scripted

Solve without using a calculator. Substance ab2 is 60.0% a by mass. What is the percent a by mass for substance ab?
Orlov [11]

The percent A by mass for substance AB =<u> 75%</u>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Proust states the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison, so that compounds have a fixed composition of elements

Empirical formula is the mole ratio of compounds forming elements.

From Substance AB₂ is 60.0% A by mass.

Let's say that AB₂ mass = 100 gram, then

mass A = 60 gram

mass B = 40 gram : 2 (coefficient in compound AB₂ = 2) = 20 gram

In compound AB:

Total mass = mass A + mass B

Total mass = 60 + 20 grams = 80 grams

Then the percentage of compound A = (60: 80) = 75%

photoshop1234 [79]

Limiting reactant : O₂

Mass of  N₂O₄ produced = 95.83 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

50g nitrous oxide

50g oxygen

Reaction

2N20 + 302 - 2N204

Required

Limiting reactant

mass of N204 produced

Solution

mol N₂O :

\tt =\dfrac{50}{44}=1.136

mol O₂ :

\tt =\dfrac{50}{32}=1.5625

2N₂O+3O₂⇒ 2N₂O₄

ICE method

1.136    1.5625

1.0416  1.5625    1.0416

0.0944    0          1.0416

Limiting reactant : Oxygen-O₂

Mass N₂O₄(MW=92 g/mol) :

\tt =mol\times MW=1.0416\times 92=95.83~g

Synthesize Information In a multistep process, cells can combine the reactants glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) to form the pro
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.

The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂  → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy

In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.

   In the reverse process:

             6CO₂ + 6H₂O   →  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

    This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.

Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.
