In a hospital laboratory, a 10.0 mL sample of gastric juice (predominantly HCl), obtained several hours after a meal, was titrat

ed with 0.1 M NaOH to neutrality; 7.2 mL of NaOH was required. The patient’s stomach contained no ingested food or drink, thus assume that no buffers were present. What was the pH of the gastric juice?

Answer: 1.14

Explanation:

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=?\\V_1=10.0mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.1M\\V_2=7.2mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times M_1\times 10.0=1\times 0.1\times 7.2\\\\M_1=0.072M

To calculate pH of gastric juice:

molarity of H^+ = 0.072

pH=-log[H^+]

pH=-log(0.072)=1.14

Thus the pH of the gastric juice is 1.14

500ml of a buffer solution contains 0.050 mol nahso3 and 0.031
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The answers are explained below

Explanation:

a)

Given: concentration of salt/base = 0.031

concentration of acid = 0.050

we have

PH = PK a + log[salt]/[acid] = 1.8 + log(0.031/0.050) = 1.59

b)

we have HSO₃⁻ + OH⁻ ------> SO₃²⁻ + H₂O

Moles i............0.05...................0.01.................0.031.....................0

Moles r...........-0.01.................-0.01................0.01........................0.01

moles f...........0.04....................0....................0.041.....................0.01

c)

we will use the first equation but substituting concentration of base as 0.031 + 10ml = 0.031 + 0.010 = 0.041

Hence, we have

PH = PK a + log[salt]/[acid] = 1.8 + log(0.041/0.050) = 1.71

d)

pOH = -log (0.01/0.510) = 1.71

pH = 14 - 1.71 = 12.29

e)

Because the buffer solution (NaHSO3-Na2SO3) can regulate pH changes. when a buffer is added to water, the first change that occurs is that the water pH becomes constant. Thus, acids or bases (alkali = bases) Additional may not have any effect on the water, as this always will stabilize immediately.

A 0.1025-g sample of copper metal is dissolved in 35 ml of concentrated hno3 to form cu2 ions and then water is added to make a
GalinKa [24]

Molarity is defined as number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

Here, 0.1025 g of Cu is reacted with 35 mL of HNO_{3} to produced Cu^{2+} ions.

The balanced reaction will be as follows:

Cu+3HNO_{3}\rightarrow Cu(NO_{3})_{2}+NO_{2}+H_{2}O

From the above reaction, 1 mole of Cu produces 1 mole of Cu^{2+}, convert the mass of Cu into number of moles as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol thus,

n=\frac{0.1025 g}{63.55 g/mol}=0.0016 mol

Now, total molarity of solution, after addition of water is 200 mL or 0.2 L can be calculated as follows:

M=\frac{n}{V}=\frac{0.0016 mol}{0.2 L}=0.008 mol/L=0.008 M

Thus, molarity of Cu^{2+} is 0.008 M.

Consider a beaker of water sitting on the pan of an electronic scale that has been tared. A metal weight hanging from a string i
natka813 [3]

Answer:

See explanation below for answers

Explanation:

We know that the balance is tared, so the innitial weight would be zero. Now, let's answer this by parts.

a) mass of displaced water.

In this case all we need to do is to substract the 0.70 with the 0.13 g. so:

mW = 0.70 - 0.13

mW = 0.57 g of water

b) Volume of water.

In this case, we have the density of water, so we use the formula for density and solve for volume:

d = m/V

V = m/d

Replacing:

Vw = 0.57/0.9982

Vw = 0.5710 mL of water

c) volume of the metal weight

In this case the volume would be the volume displaced of water, which would be 0.5710 mL

d) the mass of the metal weight.

In this case, it would be the mass when the metal weight hits the bottom which is 0.70 g

e) density.

using the above formula of density we calculate the density of the metal

d = 0.70 / 0.5710

d = 1.2259 g/mL
