Answer: 2.8275grams

Explanation: A buffer is made btw a weak acid and it salt. In a solution made by dissolving a weak acid in solution, equilibrium is set up btw ionised and unionised ion. For Benzoic acid

C6H5COOH....> C6H5COO- + H+

Ka = [C6H5COO-] [H+]/ [C6H5COOH].......(1)

using Ka = 6.5× 10^-5, [C6H5COOH] = 0.02M. PH= - log[H+] ....> [H+]= 10^-4M.

Putting the values in(1)

[C6H5COO-]= 6.5× 10^-5 × 0.02/ 10^-4

[C6H5COO-] = 0.013M = Molarity of sodium benzoate

Mole(C6H5COONa) = 0.013 × Volume = 0.013mol/litre × 1.5 litre

Mole(C6H5COONa) = 0.0195mol

Mass(C6H5COONa) = 0.0195 × Molar mass

Mass(C6H5COONa) = 2.8275g

Which statements about fresh-water sources are true.? (Multiple Choice) (please help asap thanks!:)
Kay [80]

Answer:

The correct answers are:
"Only about 3 percent of Earth's water is fresh water."

"About 75% percent of the fresh water on Earth is frozen in ice sheets."

"The largest source of usable fresh water is groundwater."

Explanation:

3 percent of Earth's water is most certainly fresh water. Confirmed with a few fact checks.

The largest source of usable fresh water on Earth is groundwater. It's more difficult to access but it's there and much more usable than water say frozen in ice on the sea.

The most correct option left would be 75% of Earth's freshwater being in ice sheets even though it's about 70%.
