A 0.10 M solution of a weak acid ($$\mathrm{HA}) $$has a pH of 3.0. What is the acid dissociation constant $$K_a$$ for this acid?

Accepted Answer

$$K_a = 1.0 	imes 10$$^{-5}$$

Question 9

Which of the following best describes the function of a salt bridge in a galvanic (voltaic) cell?

Accepted Answer

It maintains electrical neutrality by allowing the flow of ions between the half-cells.

Question 10

A radioactive isotope has a half-life of 10 years. If you start with 80 g, how much remains after 30 years?

Accepted Answer

10 g

Question 11

Which of the following is the correct expression for the equilibrium constant $$K_c$$ for the reaction $$\mathrm{2SO_2 (g) + O_2$ (g) \rightleftharpoons 2SO_3 (g)}$$?

Accepted Answer

$$K_c = \frac{[SO_3$]^2}{[SO_2$]^2[O_2$]}$$

Question 12

Which of the following statements about entropy ($$\Delta S) is $$correct?

Accepted Answer

The entropy of the universe increases for all spontaneous processes.

Question 13

A solution contains 0.10 M $$\mathrm{Ca$$^{2+}$$}$$ and 0.10 M $$\mathrm{F^-}. $$Given $$K_{sp}$$ for $$\mathrm{$$CaF_2$$} is$$ $$3.9 	imes 10$$^{-11}$$, will a precipitate form?

Accepted Answer

Yes, because $$Q = [Ca$$^{2+}$$][F^-]^2 = 1.0 	imes 10$$^{-3}$$ \gg K_{sp}$$

Question 14

Which of the following best explains why ice floats on water?

Accepted Answer

The hydrogen bonding in ice creates an open lattice structure, making it less dense than liquid water.

Question 15

Which of the following is the correct Nernst equation for a cell at non-standard conditions?

Accepted Answer

$$E = E^\circ - \frac{0.0592}{n} \log Q$$

Question 16

Question 17

Which of the following best describes the function of a buffer in blood?

Accepted Answer

It resists changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added.

Question 18

Which of the following is the correct balanced equation for the combustion of propane ($$\mathrm{C_3H_8}$$)?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{C_3H_8 + 5O_2 \rightarrow 3CO_2 + 4H_2O}$$

Question 19

Which of the following statements about nuclear fission and fusion is correct?

Accepted Answer
