To calculate the acid dissociation constant ([tex]K_a[/tex]) for a 0.015 M HA weak acid solution that is 2.5% dissociated, we use the concentrations of the ionized and non-ionized forms of the acid and plug them into the [tex]K_a[/tex] expression, which gives an approximate value of [tex]9.58 \times 10^{-6}[/tex].

To find the acid dissociation constant ([tex]K_a[/tex]) for the weak acid HA that is 2.5% dissociated in a 0.015 M solution, we can apply the definition of the dissociation constant. The dissociation of HA can be represented as:

HA <=> [tex]H^+[/tex](aq) + [tex]A^-[/tex](aq)

Since HA is a monoprotic acid and 2.5% dissociated, this means that:

0.025 x 0.015 M = [[tex]H^+[/tex]] = [[tex]A^-[/tex]]

0.015 M - 0.025 x 0.015 M = [HA]

We plug these values into the equation for [tex]K_a[/tex]:

[tex]K_a[/tex] = [[tex]H^+[/tex]][[tex]A^-[/tex]] / [HA]

By calculating the concentrations:

[[tex]H^+[/tex]] = [[tex]A^-[/tex]] = 0.000375 M (since 2.5% of 0.015 M)

[HA] = 0.015 M - 0.000375 M = 0.014625 M

Substitute them into the equation for [tex]K_a[/tex]:

[tex]K_a[/tex] = (0.000375 M × 0.000375 M) / 0.014625 M

This gives us:

[tex]K_a[/tex] = [tex]9.58 \times 10^{-6}[/tex]

So, the acid dissociation constant for HA is approximately [tex]9.58 \times 10^{-6}[/tex].

The final temperature of benzene after adding 2500 J of energy is 41.97°C.

To determine the final temperature of benzene after adding 2500 J of energy, we can use the formula for specific heat capacity:

q = mcΔT

Where:

Rearranging the formula to solve for ΔT:

ΔT = q / (mc)

Substitute the given values:

[tex]\Delta T = \frac{2500 \, \text{J}}{120 \, \text{g} \times 1.74 \, \text{J/g \textdegree C}}\\\\\Delta T = \frac{2500 \, \text{J}}{208.8 \, \text{J/°C}} \approx 11.97 \textdegree C[/tex]

Add this change to the initial temperature of 30°C:

Final temperature = 30°C + 11.97°C = 41.97°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the benzene after adding 2500 J of energy is 41.97°C.

Option B: [tex]C_{n}H_{2n+2}[/tex]

Alkane is defined as series of hydrocarbons which are saturated (all the carbon-carbon bonds are single) for example: methane, ethane, propane etc.

In alkane, carbon has 4 valence electrons so, it can make single bonds with 4 hydrogen atoms.

In the series, the first alkane is methane, it has 1 carbon atom thus, 4 hydrogen atoms are attached to it and molecular formula becomes [tex]CH_{4}[/tex]. Similarly, the second alkane in the series is ethane, it has 2 carbon atoms, both attached with single bond. The remaining three electrons in each carbon are shared with 3 hydrogen atoms each thus, it has total of 6 hydrogen atoms. Molecular formula of ethane will be [tex]C_{2}H_{6}[/tex].

Now, for general formula, let the number of carbon atoms be n thus, number of hydrogen atoms will be [tex]2n+2[/tex]

Therefore, general formula of straight chain alkane is [tex]C_{n}H_{2n+2}[/tex].

Answer:

The volume will decrease.

Explanation:

The number of moles of a gas is directly proportional to its volume according to Avogadro's law. Hence volume increases as number of moles increases. Volume also decreases as number of moles decreases.

Hence according to the question, when the number of moles of a gas decreases, the volume of the gas also decreases along side in obedience to the Avogadro's law.

A resonator will radiate or absorb energy when the energy equals an integer multiple of hf, the smallest quantum of energy. This is in line with Planck's quantization of energy, essential for understanding atomic and molecular radiation interactions.

A resonator will radiate or absorb energy when the energy in question is equal to an integer multiple of the smallest quantum of energy that can be absorbed by the particle, represented as hf, where h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency of the oscillator. According to quantum mechanics, this quantization of energy means that the energy levels an oscillator can occupy are discrete, not continuous. A quantum oscillator can only absorb or emit energy in these specific quantities. The process of absorption elevates the oscillator to a higher quantum state, while emission results in a transition to a lower quantum state.

The concept of energy quantization is an essential part of understanding the behavior of atoms and molecules as they interact with electromagnetic radiation. In the context of blackbody radiation, the quantized energies of the atoms lead to the emission of radiation according to their quantum states, and this principle was crucial for explaining the spectrum of blackbody radiation and resolving the 'ultraviolet catastrophe.' The contributions of Max Planck to quantum mechanics laid the groundwork for modern physics, leading to the development of new technologies that have significantly changed our lives.

The half-life of an isotope that decays to 6.25% of its original activity in 18.9 hours is 4.725 hours. This is calculated by understanding that the isotope undergoes 4 half-lives to reach the 6.25% activity.

The half-life (T1/2) of a radioactive isotope refers to the time period for half of the original nuclei to decay. In this case, the isotope decays to 6.25% of its original activity in 18.9 hours which means it goes through 4 half-lives (since (1/2)^4 = 1/16 which approximately equals 6.25%). Hence, the half-life of this isotope is 18.9/4 = 4.725 hours.

This concept is derived from the exponential decay of unstable radioisotopes where half-life (T1/2) is calculated by dividing the total time by number of half-lives.

In methane (CH4), the hydrogen atoms align at the corners of a tetrahedron due to the carbon atom's sp³ hybridization. This results in a 109.5° angle between the hydrogens, forming a tetrahedral geometry. This critical alignment impacts the molecule's properties and stability.

In the three-dimensional structure of methane (CH4), the hydrogen atoms attached to a carbon atom are aligned at the corners of a tetrahedron. This spatial orientation is due to the 109.5° angle between the hydrogen atoms, resulting in a tetrahedral geometry. This geometric configuration occurs because the carbon atom in methane exhibits sp³ hybridization, wherein the hybrid orbitals overlap with the s orbitals of hydrogen atoms, aligning the hydrogens in tetrahedral shape.

Such orientation plays a critical role in determining the properties of the methane molecule, and is common in many other hydrocarbons as well. In this configuration, each carbon electron pairs with a hydrogen electron when the C-H bonds are formed, resulting in a balanced and stable structure. The geometry is crucial to the function of macromolecules, which can also exist as linear carbon chains, carbon rings, or combinations of both.

To calculate the molar concentration of the base, use stoichiometry and the given volume and concentration of the acid. The balanced chemical equation helps determine the moles of acid and base. Divide the moles of base by the volume of the base solution to find the molar concentration.

To calculate the molar concentration of the base, we can use the stoichiometry of the neutralization reaction between calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:

Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + 2H2O

From the equation, we can see that 1 mole of Ca(OH)2 reacts with 2 moles of HCl. We are given that 26.85 mL of 0.225 M HCl is required to neutralize a 10.0 mL solution of Ca(OH)2. The moles of HCl can be calculated using the equation:

moles of HCl = volume of HCl (L) × concentration of HCl (M)

Once we have the moles of HCl, we can use the stoichiometry of the reaction to calculate the moles of Ca(OH)2. Finally, we divide the moles of Ca(OH)2 by the volume of the Ca(OH)2 solution to find the molar concentration.

Final answer:

In a neutralization reaction, an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water, and the net ionic equation for this reaction usually involves hydrogen ions from the acid joining with hydroxide ions from the base to form water.

Explanation:

A general word equation for a neutralization reaction is: Acid + Base → Salt + Water

During neutralization, the hydrogen ions from the acid react with the hydroxide ions from the base to form water. The remaining ions (from the acid and base) then combine to form a salt. If we consider the neutralization of a strong acid with an ionic hydroxide, the net ionic equation simplifies to:

H3O+ (aq) + OH−(aq) → 2H2O(l)

This equation represents the concentration of hydrogen ions from the acid reacting with hydroxide ions from the base, simplifying down to just the formation of water since strong acids completely dissociate in water.
