the titration of a polyprotic acid with sufficiently different pka 's displays two equivalence points. why?

1 answer:

4 0

If Ka1 and Ka2 are sufficiently distinct and a polyprotic acid is titrated with a strong base, the pH curve will contain two equivalence points because the two acidic protons will be titrated sequentially.

<h3>What is titration?</h3>

Titration is a method of chemical analysis in which the amount of a sample's constituents is determined by adding a precise amount of a different substance—one that the desired constituent reacts with in a specific, known proportion—to the sample being tested.

The titrating reagent, or titrant, is gradually added to the process using a standard solution (i.e., a solution of known concentration), which is administered using a burette, which is essentially a long, graduated measurement tube with a stopcock and a delivery tube at its bottom end. The addition comes to an end at the comparable point.

Select a system in the human body and explain how a breakdown in the digestive system might affect the system you just chose.\

Citrus2011 [14]

The circulatory system works with the digestive system. Once the food is digested, the circulatory systems absorb and uses the nutrients in the food. If the digestive system were to break down, the circulatory will not have the nutrients it needs to sufficiently run the body.

A 25.0 mL aliquot of 0.0680 M EDTA was added to a 59.0 mL solution containing an unknown concentration of V3 . All of the V3 pre

givi [52]

Answer:

$\mathbf{0.02 M}$

Explanation:

$\text{So, from the given question:}$

$\text{EDTA will make complex with}$ $V^{+3}$ $\text{and the remaining EDTA will react with }$ $Ga^{+3}$

$\text{Hence, the total concentration of}$ $V^{+3}$ & $Ga^{+3}$ $\text{will be equivalent to EDTA concentration.}$

$V_{EDTA} = 25 \ mL$

$V_{V^{+3}} = 59.0 \ mL$

$V_{Ga^{+3}} = 13.0 \ mL$

$M_{EDTA} = 0.0680 \ M$

$M_{V^{+3}} = ???(unknown)$

$M_{Ga^{+3}} = 0.0400 \ M$

$V^{+3} + EDTA \to V[EDTA] + EDTA(Excess) \to^{CoA} \ Ga[EDTA] _{complex}$

$M_{EDTA} \times V_{EDTA} = ( V_{V^+3}\times M_{V^{+3}}+ V_{Ga^{+3} }\times M_{Ga^{+3}}})$

$0.0680 \times 25 = (59\times x + 13 \times 0.040) \\ \\ 1.7 = 59x + 0.52\\ \\ 1.7 - 0.52 = 59x \\ \\ 59x = 1.18$

$x = \dfrac{1.18}{59}$

$\mathbf{x =0.02 \ M }$

What order must the earth, the sun, and the moon be in to be a lunar eclipse?

zhannawk [14.2K]

A total lunar eclipse takes place when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon and covers the Moon with its shadow. When this happens, the Moon can turn red, earning it the nickname of Blood Moon.

Explain how the liquid in a thermometer changes so that it can be used to measure a temprature

mart [117]

Answer:

The liquid that is often used in thermometers is chrome.

It is khwon for raising its volule when the temperature raises and vice-versa. ● the temperature and the volume are proprtional to each other so using Mathematics, scientists have figured out a way to benefit from it to make a thermometer.

2. When heated above 500 ºC, potassium nitrate decomposes according to the equation below. 4KNO3 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2A.If oxygen is

AysviL [449]

Answer:

(a) The rate of formation of K2O is 0.12 M/s.

The rate of formation of N2 is also 0.12 M/s

(b) The rate of decomposition of KNO3 is 0.24 M/s

Explanation:

(a) From the equation of reaction, the mole ratio of K2O to O2 is 2:5.

Rate of formation of O2 is 0.3 M/s

Therefore, rate of formation of K2O = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s

Also from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of N2 to O2 is 2:5.

Rate of formation of N2 = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s

(b) From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of KNO3 to O2 is 4:5.

Therefore, rate of decomposition of KNO3 = (4×0.3/5) = 0.24 M/s
