Answer:
volume = 1.04 dm^3
Explanation:
Data:
volume = ?
Molarity, M = 0.25M
mass = 28.5g
Molar mass = 110.25g
Moles = ?
Solution:
First find number of moles,
moles = mass in gram / molar mass
= 28.5 / 110.25
= 0.258
≈ 0.26 moles
Now,
Molarity =
So,
Volume in dm^3 =
= 0.26 / 0.25
Volume = 1.04 dm^3
<span>A lime is called a lime because it's lime in colour and a lemon is called lemon because it's lemon in colour. Just to change the subject slightly why is a fly called a fly? - because it flies - so if a fly didn't have wings would it be called a walk. We could go on and on with this couldn't we and have a lot of fun too :)</span>
Answer:
Butanoic acid present in solution
Explanation:
In this case, we have a buffer solution of butanoic acid and sodium butanoate. In other words a reaction like this:
HC₄H₇O₂ + H₂O <------> C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H₃O⁺ Ka = 1.5x10⁻⁵
The low value of Ka means that this is a weak acid. So, after this, the NaOH is added to the solution.
The NaOH is a really strong base, so we might expect that the pH of the solution increase drastically, however this do not occur.
The reason for this is because the first thing to happen in this reaction is an acid base reaction.
The NaOH react with the butanoic acid still present in solution, because is a weak acid, so in solution, this acid is not completely dissociated into it's respective ions. So the butanoic acid reacts with the NaOH and the products:
HC₄H₇O₂ + NaOH <------> Na⁺C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H₂O
So, because of this, the pH increase but not much.
