Find the derivative of f(x)=exp((tanx)^(1/2))

We use the chain rule. Let u(x)=exp(x), v(x)=x 1/2 , w(x) = tan(x). Then f(x) = u(v(w(x))). So by the chain rule, f'(x) = u'(v(w(x)))*(v(w(x)))'. u'(x) = exp(x). By the chain rule, (v(w(x)))' = v'(w(x)) w'(x...

Acid HA has a Ka of 2.00 x 10-4mol dm-3. A solution was made by adding 15cm3 of 0.34 M NaOH to 25cm3 of 0.45M HA. Calculate the moles and the concentration of A- and HA in this solution. Using the expression for Ka calculate the pH of the solution

Write the equation : NaOH + HA --> NaA + H 2 O. Find the moles of A - : the moles of A - = the moles of NaOH added. 15 x 10 -3 x 0.34= 5.10 x 10 -3 . Workout the initial moles of HA : 25 x 10 -3 x 0.45= 0...
