Answer:
0.0344 M
Explanation:
- HC₂H₃O₂ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) --> C₂H₃O₂⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l)
Because one mol of vinegar (acetic acid) reacts with one mol of NaOH, we can use the formula
Where C₁ and V₁ refer to the concentration and volume of vinegar, and C₂ and V₂ to those of NaOH. We're given V₁, C₂ and V₂; so we <em>solve for C₁</em>:
- C₁ = 0.0500 M * 16.7 mL / 25.0 mL
Answer:
The empirical formula of this substance is:

Explanation:
To find the empirical formula of this substance we need the molecular weight of the elements Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen, we can find this information in the periodic table:
- C: 12.01 g/mol
- H: 1.00 g/mol
- O: 15.99 g/mol
With the information in this exercise we can suppose in 100 g of the substance we have:
C: 48.64 g
H: 8.16 g
O: 43.2 g (100 g - 48.64g - 8.16g= 43.2 g)
Now, we need to divide these grams by the molecular weight:

We need to divide these results by the minor result, in this case O=2.70 mol

We need to find integer numbers to find the empirical formula, for this reason we multiply by 2:

This numbers are very close to integer numbers, so we can find the empirical formula as subscripts in the chemical formula:

Answer:
(A) pH < 1 the predominant form is the cation: H3C-C(H)(NH3+)-COOH
(B) pH = pl the predominant form is the zwitterion H3C-C(H)(NH3+)-COO-
(C) pH > 11 the predominant form is the anion: H3C-C(H)(NH2)-COO-
(D) Does not occurs in any significant pH: H3C-C(H)(NH2)-COOH
Explanation:
Amino acids are bifunctional because they have an amine group and a carboxyl group. The amine group is a weak base and the carboxyl group is a weak acid, but the pKa of both groups will depend on the whole structure of the amino acid. Also, every amino acid has an isoelectric point (pI), which means the pH were the predominant form of the amino acid is the zwitterion. The structure of the alanine (CH3CH2NH2COOH) shows it has the carboxyl group at C1 with a pKa1 of 2.3 and the amino group at C2 whit the pKa2 of 9.7. The isoelectric poin (pI) of Alanine is 6. Consequently, the protonation of the molecule will depend on the pH of the solution. There are three possibilities:
1) If the pH is under the pKa of the carboxyl group (2.3) the predominant form will be with the amino group protonated, forming a cation (CH3CH(NH3+)COOH).
2) If the pH is between pKa1 (2.3) and pKa2 (9.7) the predominant form will be the zwitterion (CH3CH(NH3+)(COO-)).
3) If the pH is upper the pKa2 of the amino group (9.7) the predominant form will be with the carboxyl group deprotonated, forming an anion (CH3CHNH2(COO-)).
