What will be the ph of a buffer solution containing an acid of pka7. 5, with an acid concentration exactly one fourth of that of

the conjugate base?
Chemistry
1 answer:
Lilit [14]2 years ago
5 0

The pH of a buffer solution containing acid of pKa 7.5 will be 8.1.

The pH of a solution indicates its acidity or basicity. A pH below 7 is acidic, while pH above 7 is basic. 7 is considered as the neutral value.

A buffer is a solution that has the ability to resist the change in pH when an acid or a base is added to it. The natural example of buffer is blood.

According to the question, pKa of acid = 7.5

If concentration of base is x then, concentration of acid will be x/4.

According to the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation,

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

pH = 7.5 + log [\frac{x}{x/4}]

pH = 7.5 + log 4 ⇒ 7.5 + 0.602

pH = 8.1

What is 3.35 x 10^14 Hz?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

335,000,000,000,000 Hz

Explanation:

3.35 x 10^14 is just scientific notation. This is a way to make a really big number small to write and easier to understand. The exponent on the 10 represents how many times you move the decimal to the right. If the exponent is negative you should move the decimal to the left. Each time the decimal is moved, and there is no pre-existing number, you need to add a zero.

3.35 x 10^14 is equal to

335,000,000,000,000

The water-gas shift reaction CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) is used industrially to produce hydrogen. The reaction enthalpy is ΔH∘=−4
denis23 [38]

Answer:

To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.

For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.

Explanation:

Let´s consider the following reaction:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.

In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.

Why is it when you add 4 electrons to Beryllium it becomes a neutral atom?
kykrilka [37]

because since there are now 4 electrons(-) you can tell that it had 4 protons (+) before so -4+4 is 0 which makes it neutral. hope it helps.
