You wish to make a buffer with pH 7.0. You combine 0.060 grams of acetic acid and 14.59 grams of sodium acetate and add water to

yield a total volume of 1 liter . What is the pH? Will this be the useful pH 7.0 buffer you seek?

Answer:

The pH of the buffer is 7.0 and this pH is not useful to pH 7.0

Explanation:

The pH of a buffer is obtained by using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer</em>

<em>The pKa of acetic acid is 4.74.</em>

<em>[A⁻] could be taken as moles of sodium acetate (14.59g * (1mol / 82g) = 0.1779 moles</em>

<em>[HA] are the moles of acetic acid (0.060g * (1mol / 60g) = 0.001moles</em>

<em />

Replacing:

pH = 4.74 + log [0.1779mol] / [0.001mol]

<em>pH = 6.99 ≈ 7.0</em>

<em />

The pH of the buffer is 7.0

But the buffer is not useful to pH = 7.0 because a buffer works between pKa±1 (For acetic acid: 3.74 - 5.74). As pH 7.0 is out of this interval,

this pH is not useful to pH 7.0

levacccp [35]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Looking at the periodic table, we can see that sodium is in group 1, so a sodium ion would be Na⁺, with a charge of +1. Oxygen is in group 16, so an oxygen ion would be O²⁻, with a charge of -2.

A compound formed only by a single sodium ion and a single oxygen ion would thus have a charge of -1, and in order to have a stable ionic compound its charge must be zero.

atroni [7]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

(g) Titration curves

I can't draw two curves on the same graph, but I can draw two separate curves for you.  

The graph in part (d) had an equivalence point at 20 mL.

In the second titration, the NaOH was twice as concentrated, so the volume to equivalence point would be half as much — 10 mL.

The two titration curves are below.

(h) Evidence of reaction

HCl and NaOH are both colourless.

They don't  evolve a gas or form a precipitate when they react.

The student probably noticed that the Erlenmeyer flask warmed up — a sign of a chemical change.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 670g of water from 25.7"C to 66,0°C? The specific heat
inna [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

q= mc theta

where,

Q = heat gained

m = mass of the substance = 670g

c = heat capacity of water= 4.1 J/g°C    

theta =Change in temperature=( 66-25.7)

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the amount of heat needed.

q= mctheta

q=670*4.1*(66-25.7)

  =670*4.1*40.3

=110704.1

what is the new pressure acting on a 2.5 l balloon if its original volume was 5.8 l at 3.7 ATM of pressure
Ivan

Answer : The new pressure acting on a 2.5 L balloon is, 8.6 atm.

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure = 3.7 atm

P_2 = final pressure = ?

V_1 = initial volume = 5.8 L

V_2 = final volume = 2.5 L

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

3.7atm\times 5.8L=P_2\times 2.5L

P_2=8.6atm

Thus, the new pressure acting on a 2.5 L balloon is, 8.6 atm.
