Weak acids partially dissociate, they dissociate to a small intent. So after dissociation, the concentration will <u>not </u>have much significant difference.

<h3>What are weak acids?</h3>

A weak acid is one that partially separates into its ions in water or an aqueous solution. On the other hand, when strong acids are in water, they completely separate into their ions. The conjugate base of a weak acid is also a weak base, and vice versa holds true for the conjugate acid of a weak base.

At the same concentration, weak acids have a lower pH than strong acids. Strong acids are far less common than weak ones. Lemon juice and common vinegar (acetic acid) both include them (citric acid).

A chemistry graduate student is given 125.mL of a 1.00M benzoic acid HC6H5CO2 solution. Benzoic acid is a weak acid with =Ka×6.3
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

53.9 g

Explanation:

When talking about buffers is very common the problem involves the use of the Henderson Hasselbach formula:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻]/[HA]

where  [A⁻] is the concentration of the conjugate base of the weak acid HA, and [HA] is the concentration of the weak acid.

We can calculate pKₐ from the given kₐ ( pKₐ = - log Kₐ ), and from there obtain the ratio  [A⁻]/HA].

Since we know the concentration of HC6H5CO2 and the volume of solution, the moles and mass of KC6H5CO2  can be determined.

So,

4.63 = - log ( 6.3 x 10⁻⁵ ) + log [A⁻]/[HA] = - (-4.20 ) + log [A⁻]/[HA]

⇒ log [A⁻]/[HA]  = 4.63 - 4.20 =  log [A⁻]/[HA]

0.43 = log [A⁻]/[HA]

taking antilogs to both sides of this equation:

10^0.43 =  [A⁻]/[HA] = 2.69

 [A⁻]/ 1.00 M = 2.69 ⇒ [A⁻] = 2.69 M

Molarity is moles per liter of solution, so we can calculate how many moles of  C6H5CO2⁻ the student needs to dissolve  in 125. mL ( 0.125 L ) of a 2.69 M solution:

( 2.69 mol C6H5CO2⁻ / 1L ) x 0.125 L  = 0.34 mol C6H5CO2⁻

The mass will be obtained by multiplying 0.34 mol times molecular weight for KC6H5CO2 ( 160.21 g/mol ):

0.34 mol x 160.21 g/mol = 53.9 g

The painkiller, Advil® contains the active ingredient ibuprofen (IB), which has a pKb of
denis23 [38]

This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:

First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:

Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}

Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:

pOH=14-8.20=5.80

[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M

Kb=10^{-5.20}=6.31x10^{-6}

Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:

6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}

Finally, we solve for the equilibrium concentration of ibuprofen:

[IB]=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{6.31x10^{-6}}=4.0x10^{-7}
