A buffer is prepared by mixing 204.0 mL of 0.452 mol/L hydrochloric acid (HCI) and 500.0 mL of 0.400 mol/L sodium acetate (NaCHC

O2, NaAc). What is the pH of the above buffer solution?

Answer:

pH of buffer is 4.81

Explanation:

The reaction between HCl and sodium acetate will product acetic acid. The presence of weak acid (acetic acid) and its salt will make a buffer.

The reaction will be:

CH_{3}COONa + HCl --> CH_{3}COOH + NaCl

Thus one mole each of HCl and acetate will give one mole of acetic acid.

The moles of HCl present = molarity X volume = 0.452 X 0.204 =0.092

moles of acetic acid formed on reaction of HCl with acetate = 0.092

Initial moles of sodium acetate present = molarity X volume = 0.4X0.5 =0.2

moles of sodium acetate left =0.108 mol

the pKa of acetic acid =4.74

The pH of buffer is calculated using Henderson Hassalbalch's equation :

pH = pKa + log\frac{[salt]}{[acid]}

pH = 4.74 +log\frac{0.108}{0.092} =4.81

Submit What is the solubility of Cd3(POA) 2 in water? (Ksp of Cd3(PO4)2 is 2.5 x 10-33) | 1 2 3 +/- . 0 x100
vesna_86 [32]

<u>Answer:</u> The solubility of Cd_3(PO_4)_2 in water is 1.18\times 10^{-7}mol/L

<u>Explanation:</u>

The balanced equilibrium reaction for the ionization of cadmium phosphate follows:

Cd_3(PO_4)_2\rightleftharpoons 3Cd^{2+}+2PO_4^{3-}

                      3s       2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be:

K_{sp}=[Cd^{2+}]^3[PO_4^{3-}]^2

We are given:

K_{sp}=2.5\times 10^{-33}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2.5\times 10^{-33}=(3s)^3\times (2s)^2\\\\2.5\times 10^{-33}=108s^5\\\\s=1.18\times 10^{-7}mol/L

Hence, the solubility of Cd_3(PO_4)_2 in water is 1.18\times 10^{-7}mol/L

The enzyme, phosphoglucomutase, catalyzes the interconversion
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

K_{eq = 19

ΔG° of the reaction forming glucose 6-phosphate =  -7295.06 J

ΔG° of the reaction  under cellular conditions = 10817.46 J

Explanation:

Glucose 1-phosphate     ⇄     Glucose 6-phosphate

Given that: at equilibrium, 95% glucose 6-phospate is  present, that implies that we 5% for glucose 1-phosphate

So, the equilibrium constant K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq= \frac{0.95}{0.05}

K_{eq = 19

The formula for calculating ΔG° is shown below as:

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = - (8.314 Jmol⁻¹ k⁻¹ × 298 k ×  1n(19))

ΔG° = 7295.05957 J

ΔG°≅ - 7295.06 J

b)

Given that; the concentration  for  glucose 1-phosphate = 1.090 x 10⁻² M

the concentration of glucose 6-phosphate is 1.395 x 10⁻⁴ M

Equilibrium constant  K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq}= \frac{1.395*10^{-4}}{1.090*10^{-2}}

K_{eq} = 0.01279816514  M

K_{eq} = 0.0127 M

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = -(8.314*298*In(0.0127)

ΔG° = 10817.45913 J

ΔG° = 10817.46 J
