Answer : The pH of the solution is, 4.9

Explanation : Given,

Dissociation constant for acetic acid = K_a=1.8\times 10^{-5}

Concentration of acetic acid = 0.05 M

Concentration of sodium acetate = 0.075 M

First we have to calculate the value of pK_a.

The expression used for the calculation of pK_a is,

pK_a=-\log (K_a)

Now put the value of K_a in this expression, we get:

pK_a=-\log (1.8\times 10^{-5})

pK_a=5-\log (1.8)

pK_a=4.7

Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[CH_3COONa]}{[CH_3COOH]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=4.7+\log (\frac{0.075}{0.05})

pH=4.9

Therefore, the pH of the solution is 4.9.

How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 3 kg of iron from 20° C to 25°C? Use the table below and this equation:
ElenaW [278]

The energy required to raise the temperature of 3 kg of iron from 20° C to 25°C is 6,750 J( Option B)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Specific Heat capacity of Iron= 0.450 J/ g °C

To Find:

Required Energy to raise the Temperature

Formula:

Amount of energy required is given by the formula,

Q = mC (ΔT)

Solution:

M = mass of the iron in g

So 3 kg = 3000 g

C = specific heat of iron = 0.450 J/ g °C [ from the given table]

ΔT = change in temperature = 25° C - 20°C = 5°C

Plugin the values, we will get,

Q = 3000 g ×  0.450 J/ g °C ×  5°C

 = 6,750 J

So the energy required is 6,750 J.
