Conjugate base of Propanoic acid ( $CH_{3}CH_{2}COOH$ is propanoate where -COOH group gets converted to -CO $O^{1-}$ . The structure of conjugate base of Propanoic acid is shown in the diagram.

The $p^{H}$ above which 90% of the compound will be in this conjugate base form can be determined using Henderson's equation as propanoic acid is weak acid and it can form buffer solution on reaction with strong base.

$p^{H}$ = $p^{k_{a}$ + log $\frac{[Conjugate base]}{[acid]}$ =4.9+log $\frac{90}{10}$ =5.85

As 90% conjugate base is present, so propanoic acid present 10%.

What mass of lead (II) chloride is produced when 200.0 mL of a 0.250 M solution of sodium chloride is mixed with 200.0 mL of a 0

kow [346]

Answer:

Option d. 6.95 g

Explanation:

First of all, we state the reaction:

2NaCl + Pb(NO₃)₂ → PbCl₂ + 2NaNO₃

We determine the moles of each reactant, to state the limiting

Firstly we convert volume frm mL to L

0.200 L . 0.250M = 0.05 moles of NaCl

0.200L . 0.250M = 0.05 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂

Acording to stoichiometry we know that relation is 1:2, so the limiting reagent is the NaCl.

For 1 mol of Pb(NO₃)₂ I need 2 moles of NaCl

For 0.05 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ I would need, the double → 0.1 moles

(We only have, 0.05 moles of NaCl)

Stoichiometry to the formed product is 2:1

From 2 moles of NaCl I produce 1 mol of PbCl₂

From 0.05 moles I would produce, the half → 0.025 moles

Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.025 mol . 278.1 g / 1mol = 6.95 g

A first-order decomposition reaction has a rate constant of 0.00440 yr−1. How long does it take for [reactant] to reach 12.5% of

mina [271]

Answer:

473 year

Explanation:

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration

Given:

To reach 12.5% of reactant means that 0.125 of $[A_0]$ is decomposed. So,

$\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}$ = 0.125

t = ?

$\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-k\times t}$

$0.125=e^{-0.00440\times t}$

t = 473 year

What is the relationship between the number of particles and the overall pressure?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is held constant (Boyle's law). Under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, equal volumes of all gases contain the same number of molecules

16. A solution is made by dissolving 25 g of NaCl in enough water to make 1.0 L of solution. Assume the density of the solution

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The molarity will be "0.43 M" and molality will be "0.43 m".

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of NaCl,

= 25 g

Volume of solution,

= 1 L

Density of solution,

= 1 gm/cm³

Now,

The weight of solvent will be:

= $Volume\times density$

= $1\times 1$

= $1 \ kg$

The mole of NaCl will be:

= $\frac{mass}{Molar \ mass}$

= $\frac{25}{58.44}$

= $0.43$

hence,

The molarity will be:

= $\frac{number \ of \ mole}{Volume \ of \ solution}$

= $\frac{0.43}{1}$

= $0.43 \ M$

The molality will be:

= $\frac{mole \ of \ solute}{Weight \ of \ solvent}$

= $\frac{0.43}{1}$

= $0.43 \ m$
