Chapter 2, Problem 18P
Interpretation Introduction
To calculate:
The concentration of chloride in the gastric juice.
Introduction:
The dissociation reaction of a strong acid for example HCl is as follows:
This means it completely dissociates into hydrogen and chloride ion.
For such solutions, the concentration of hydrogen ion will be equal to the concentration of chloride ion.
Or,
The pH of the solution is defined as negative log of hydrogen ion concentration. It is mathematically represented as follows:

Assessing the Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium You are studying the various components of the venom of a poisonous lizard. One of the venom components is a protein that appears to be temperature sensitive. When heated, it denatures and is no longer toxic. The process can be described by the following simple equation: There is only enough protein from this venom to carry out two equilibrium measurements. At 298 K, you find that 98% of the protein is in its to.\ic form. However, when you raise the temperature to 320 �.. you find that only 10% of the protein is in its toxic form. Calculate the equilibrium constants for the T to N conversion at these two temperatures. Use the data to determine the H,S, and G for this process.arrow_forward
