Answer:
pH = 2.69
Explanation:
The complete question is:<em> An analytical chemist is titrating 182.2 mL of a 1.200 M solution of nitrous acid (HNO2) with a solution of 0.8400 M KOH. The pKa of nitrous acid is 3.35. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 46.44 mL of the KOH solution to it.</em>

The reaction of HNO₂ with KOH is:
HNO₂ + KOH → NO₂⁻ + H₂O + K⁺
Moles of HNO₂ and KOH that react are:
HNO₂ = 0.1822L × (1.200mol / L) = <em>0.21864 moles HNO₂</em>
KOH = 0.04644L × (0.8400mol / L) = <em>0.0390 moles KOH</em>
That means after the reaction, moles of HNO₂ and NO₂⁻ after the reaction are:
NO₂⁻ = 0.03900 moles KOH = moles NO₂⁻
HNO₂ = 0.21864 moles HNO₂ - 0.03900 moles = 0.17964 moles HNO₂
It is possible to find the pH of this buffer (<em>Mixture of a weak acid, HNO₂ with the conjugate base, NO₂⁻), </em>using H-H equation for this system:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]
pH = 3.35 + log₁₀ [0.03900mol] / [0.17964mol]
<h3>pH = 2.69</h3>
Answer: The activation energy Ea for this reaction is 22689.8 J/mol
Explanation:
According to Arrhenius equation with change in temperature, the formula is as follows.
![ln \frac{k_{2}}{k_{1}} = \frac{-E_{a}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_{2}} - \frac{1}{T_{1}}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ln%20%5Cfrac%7Bk_%7B2%7D%7D%7Bk_%7B1%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-E_%7Ba%7D%7D%7BR%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7BT_%7B2%7D%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7BT_%7B1%7D%7D%5D)
= rate constant at temperature 
= 
= rate constant at temperature 
= 
= activation energy = ?
R= gas constant = 8.314 J/kmol
= temperature = 
= temperature = 
Putting in the values ::
![ln \frac{4.8\times 10^8}{2.3\times 10^8} = \frac{-E_{a}}{8.314}[\frac{1}{649} - \frac{1}{553}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ln%20%5Cfrac%7B4.8%5Ctimes%2010%5E8%7D%7B2.3%5Ctimes%2010%5E8%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B-E_%7Ba%7D%7D%7B8.314%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B649%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B553%7D%5D)

Answer:
Removing O₂, means removing one of the reactants and the system would counteract this effect by producing more O₂, thereby shifting the equilibrium position to the left and favouring the backward reaction.
Explanation:
The principle that explains how changes in temperature, Concentration and Pressure of reactants or products of a reaction at equilibrium affect the equilibrium position of the reaction is the Le Chatelier's principle.
The Principle explains that a system/process if a system/process which is at equilibrium is disturbed/perturbed/constrained by one or more changes (in concentration, pressure or temperature), the system would shift the equilibrium position to counteract the effects of this change.
Removing O₂, means removing one of the reactants (changing its concentration) and the system would counteract this effect by producing more O₂, thereby shifting the equilibrium position to the left and favouring the backward reaction.
If the mass of all of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to 100g then the mass of the reactants in that same reaction had to have had a mass of 100g this is due to the law of conservation of matter stating matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
