Answer:
0.677 moles
Explanation:
Take the atomic mass of K = 39.1, O =16.0, P = 31.0
no. of moles = mass / molar mass
no. of moles of K3PO4 used = 4.79 / (39.1x3 + 31 + 16x4)
= 0.02256 mol
From the equation, the mole ratio of KOH : K3PO4 = 3 :1,
meaning every 3 moles of KOH used, produces 1 mole of K3PO4.
So, using this ratio, let the no. of moles of KOH required to be y.
y = 0.02256 x3
y = 0.0677 mol
If you don't find exactly 0.677 moles as one of the options, go for the closest one. A very slight error may occur because of taking different significant figures of atomic masses when calculating.
<u>36 ml of NaOh and</u><u> 464 ml</u><u> of </u><u>HCOOH</u><u> would be enough to form 500 ml of a buffer with the same pH as the buffer made with </u><u>benzoic acid </u><u>and NaOH.</u>
What is benzoic acid found in?
- Some natural sources of benzoic acid include: Fruits: Apricots, prunes, berries, cranberries, peaches, kiwi, bananas, watermelon, pineapple, oranges.
- Spices: Cinnamon, cloves, allspice, cayenne pepper, mustard seeds, thyme, turmeric, coriander.
Calculate the amount of moles in NaOH and benzoic acid. This calculation is done by multiplying molarity by volume.
Amount of moles of NaOH -2 × 0.025 = 0.05 mol
Amount of moles of benzoic acid 2 × 0.475 = 0.095 mol
In this case, we can calculate the pH produced by the buffer of these two reagents, as follows
We must repeat this calculation, with the values shown for HCOOH and NaOH. In this case, we can calculate as follows
Now we must solve the equation above. This will be done using the following values
With these values, we can calculate the volumes of NaOH and HCOOH needed to make the buffer.
NaOH volume
( 0.5 - 0.464)L
0.036L .................... 36ml
HCOOH volume
500 - 36 = 464mL
