Which acid is the best choice to create a buffer with ph= 3.19?

Chemistry

Crazy boy [7]4 years ago

<span>The best choice is hypochlorous acid nitrous acid (HNO2) because it has the nearest value of pK to the desired pH.
pKa of </span>nitrous acid<span> is 3.34 
If we know pKa and pH values,  we can calculate the required ratio of conjugate base (NO2⁻) to acid (HNO2) from the following equation:
pH=pKa + log(conc. of base)/( conc. of acid)
</span><span>3.19=3.34 + log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
</span><span>3.19 - 3.34 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
-0.15 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2) = 10⁰¹⁵ = 1.41

A sample of vinegar was found to have an acetic acid concentration of 0.8846 m. What is the acetic acid % by mass? Assume the de
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

5.3%

Explanation:

Let the volume be 1 L

volume , V = 1 L

use:

number of mol,

n = Molarity * Volume

= 0.8846*1

= 0.8846 mol

Molar mass of CH3COOH,

MM = 2*MM(C) + 4*MM(H) + 2*MM(O)

= 2*12.01 + 4*1.008 + 2*16.0

= 60.052 g/mol

use:

mass of CH3COOH,

m = number of mol * molar mass

= 0.8846 mol * 60.05 g/mol

= 53.12 g

volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL

density of solution = 1.00 g/mL

Use:

mass of solution = density * volume

= 1.00 g/mL * 1000 mL

= 1000 g

Now use:

mass % of acetic acid = mass of acetic acid * 100 / mass of solution

= 53.12 * 100 / 1000

= 5.312 %

≅ 5.3%

because PbCl2 is an ionic compound and it's solid, so it's a substance.
It cannot be mixture, because it's a pure molecule.
5. D
despite that both substances are gases, colorless they are different molecules, so they should have different either chemical and physical properties

Explain how thermal energy is transferred in convection.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Convection occurs when particles with a lot of heat energy in a liquid or gas move and take the place of particles with less heat energy. Heat energy is transferred from hot places to cooler places by convection. Liquids and gases expand when they are heated. ... As a result, the particles take up more volume.
