An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg of sodium phenate. What is the ph of the solution. The pka of phenol = 9.98. Mw of phenol and sodium phenate are 94 g/mol and 116 g/mol, respectively.
Volume of solution = 55 gallons = 208.2 L [ 1 gallon = 3.78 L]
moles of phenol = mass / molar mass = 4000 g / 94 = 42.55 moles
moles of sodium phenate = mass / molar mass = 1500 / 116 = 12.93 moles
pKa of phenol = 9.98
We know that the pH of buffer is calculated using Hendersen Hassalbalch's equation
pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]
volume is same for both the sodium phenate and phenol has we can directly take the moles of each in the formula
pH = 9.98 + log [12.93 / 42.55] = 9.46
Answer:
The volume of the sample of the gas is found to be 12.90 L.
Explanation:
Given pressure of the gas = P = 1.10 atm
Number of moles of gas = n = 0.6000 mole
Temperature = T = 288.15 K
Assuming the volume of the gas to be V liters
The ideal gas equation is shown below

Volume occupied by gas = 12.90 L
If you are talking about at the beaches waves would cause increased abrasion because the force of a wave hitting a rock or something else will slowly cause the object to wear away. Also strong winds could cause increased abrasion because the wind could pick up small sand particles that will slowly erode the thing it hits.
The oxidation number of S in H2SO is +0.
The oxidation number of O in H2SO is -2.
The oxidation number of H in H2SO is +1
Answer:
H2 + I2 --> 2HI
Explanation:
The two reactants are diatomic molecules because they contain two atoms of the same element. Therefore, they would need to have a subscript of "2" next to their symbols.
When balancing an equation, you want the same amount and type of atoms on both sides. By adding a coefficient of "2" in front of the product, two H's and two I's are now on both sides.
