calculate how much acid (acetic acid) and how much conjugate base (sodium acetate) must be used to make 500ml of a 0.8m acetate

buffer with ph 4.76. assume that the pka for the dissociation of acetic acid 4.76. how much of each must be added if the desired ph is 5.76?

For the desired pH of 5.76, 0.365 mol of acetate and 0.035 mol of acid are to be added

let the concentration of acetate be x

then the concentration of acid will be (0.8 - x)

pKa of acetate buffer = 4.76

pH = pKa + log([acetate]/[acid])

⇒4.76 = 4.76 + log(x/(0.8-x))

⇒log(x/(0.8-x)) = 0

⇒x/(0.8-x) = 1

⇒x = 0.4

Therefore

[acetate] = x = 0.4

[acid] = 0.8-x =0.4 M

number of mol = concentration *(volume in mL)

number of mol of acetate = 0.4*0.5

= 0.20 mol

number of mol acid = 0.4*0.5

= 0.20 mol

when desired pH = 5.76

pH = pKa + log([acetate]/[acid])

⇒5.76 = 4.76 + log(x/(0.8-x))

⇒log(x/(0.8-x)) = 1

⇒x/(0.8-x) = 10

⇒x = 8 - 10x

⇒x = 8/11

⇒x= 0.73

[acetate] = x= 0.73

[acid] = 0.8-x = 0.07 M

number of mol = concentration * (volume in mL)

number of mol acetate to be added = 0.73*0.5 = 0.365 mol

number of mol acid to be added = 0.07*0.5 = 0.035 mol

Problem based on acetic acid required to maintain a certain pH

Answer:

[A]²

Explanation:

Since the formation is independent of D, D is 0 order.

Since a quadruples when it is doubled it can be written as

2A^X= 4

To find the unknown power we can assume A= 1 to make the math simple. So When a = 2 (Because you doubled it) raised to X power it will equal 4

so the unknown power is 2

Making the rate law

[a]²[b]⁰

or simply just

[A]²

Compare and contrast the positive and negative effects that result from the use of the Haber process.
Luda [366]

Answer: Positive effects: mass production of fertilizers, alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes, explosives

Negative effects: heath problems, negative effects on soil organisms and soil organic matter,  imbalances to the nitrogen cycle, high fossil fuel energy inputs, production of deadly weapons

Explanation:

The Haber process (also called Haber Bosch process) is used to produce ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen under the high pressure. Basically, it's an artificial nitrogen fixation process. This method has both positive and negative effects on modern society.

Positive sides: ammonia is mainly used for mass production of fertilizer, which allows more food for everyone. It can be used for production of alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes and explosives. Ammonia is also used in production of synthetic polymers, due to its role in the manufacturing of cyanide.

Negative sides: ammonia is a toxic gas, it can irritate eyes and lungs. Because of that, the excess nitrogen in soil and water coming from synthetic fertilizers can cause health problems. It is harmful for humans and animals, but it can also be harmful for plants. Environmental factors are also important. Because of the mass fixation, there is imbalance in the earth’s nitrogen cycle. Also, fossil fuels are used as a source of power for machinery in Haber's process, which increases emissions into the atmosphere. And, at least ammonia is a major component of weapons including great number of bombs.
