Answer

pH=8.5414

Procedure

The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a chemical solution of a weak acid to the numerical value of the acid dissociation constant, Kₐ. In this equation, [HA] and [A⁻] refer to the equilibrium concentrations of the conjugate acid-base pair used to create the buffer solution.

pH = pKa + log₁₀ ([A⁻] / [HA])

Where

pH = acidity of a buffer solution

pKa = negative logarithm of Ka

Ka =acid disassociation constant

[HA]= concentration of an acid

[A⁻]= concentration of conjugate base

First, calculate the pKa

pKa=-log₁₀(Ka)= 8.6383

Then use the equation to get the pH (in this case the acid is HBrO)

pH=8.6383+\log_{10}(\frac{0.40\text{ M}}{0.50\text{ M}})=8.5414

Which statement describes a chemical property of water?
anygoal [31]
<span>The chemical description of water is H2O, which means, it is composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. The answer to this item is the fourth option, " It is clear and colorless." When water is added with calcium, clear, colorless bubbles are formed. This explains a reaction of water with acid. The following are additional facts about water properties: Density: 1 g/cm³ Boiling point: 100 °C Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol Melting point: 0 °C Formula: H2O</span>

if 100. mL of 0.800 M Na2SO4 is added to 200. mL of 1.20 M NaCl, what is the concentration of Na+ ions in the final solution? As
Black_prince [1.1K]
Compounds Na₂SO₄ and NaCl are mixed together are we are asked to find the concentration of Na⁺ in the mixture 
Na₂SO₄ ---> 2 Na⁺ + SO₄³⁻

1 mol of Na₂SO₄ gives out 2 mol of Na⁺ ions 

the number of Na₂SO₄ moles added - 0.800 M/1000 * 100 ml
                                                         = 0.08 mol
therefore number of Na⁺ ions from Na₂SO₄ = 0.08 * 2 = 0.16 mol

NaCl ----> Na⁺ + Cl⁻ 
1 mol of NaCl gives 1 mol of Na⁺ ions
number of NaCl moles added = 1.20 M/1000 * 200 ml
                                               = 0.24 mol
number of Na⁺ ions from NaCl = 0.24 mol

total number of Na⁺ ions in the mixture = 0.16 mol + 0.24 mol = 0.4 mol
as stated the volumes are additive, 
therefore total volume  = 100 ml + 200 ml = 300 ml 
the concentration of Na⁺ ions = number of moles / volume 
                                              = 0.4 mol/ 0.3 dm³
concentration of Na⁺ = 1.33 mol/dm³
