The pH of a 1.1M solution of hexanoic acid HC6H11O2 is measured to be 2.40. Calculate the acid dissociation constant Ka of hexanoic acid. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Ka = 1.4 x 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

HC₆H₁₁O₂ ⇄ H⁺ + C₆H₁₁O₂⁻

At equilibrium 1.1M HC₆H₁₁O₂ => [H⁺] = [C₆H₁₁O₂⁻] = 10^-pH = 10⁻²°⁴ = 4.0 x 10⁻³M

Ka = [H⁺][C₆H₁₁O₂⁻]/[HC₆H₁₁O₂] = (4.0 x 10⁻³)²/1.1 = 1.4 x 10⁻⁵    

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
