    I'm confused with the numbers. The pH of a 100 mL acetic acid solution that is 0.1 M (100 mM) is 1.4E-3 for (H^+) or pH of 2.85 and not 3.20. Does this mean the solution is not pure acetic acid? Also did you make a typo on pKa acetic acid. Is that really

    40.7 kJ/mol x #mols = kJ 40.7 kJ/mol x #mols = 1.50 kJ. Solve for # mols. If you want grams, convert mols to grams by grams = mols x molar mass = ?

    Metals in the activity series will displace any ION BELOW it. For example: Al metal is above Cu in the activity series; therefore, the following reaction will occur. 2Al(s) + 3Cu^Cl2(aq) ==> 3Cu(s) + 2AlCl3+(aq) But Cu metal is below H in the activity

    CaCo3(s) -> CaO(s) + CO2(g) Use PV = nRT, plug in the conditions listed and solve for n = number mols CO2 at those conditions. The you know from the equation that 1 mol CO2 comes from 1 mol CaCO3. The grams CaCO3 = mols CaCO3 x molar mass CaCO3. Remember
