<h3>Answer:</h3>

#a. Theoretical yield = 31.6 g

#b. Actual yield = 25.72 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The equation for the reaction between sulfur dioxide and water to form sulfurous acid is given by the equation;

SO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq)

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Mass of water that reacted is 6.94 g

#a. To get the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ we need to follow the following steps

Step 1: Calculate the moles of water

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Mass of water = 6.94 g

But, moles = Mass/molar mass

Moles of water = 6.94 g ÷ 18.02 g/mol

                        = 0.385 mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of H₂SO₃

From the equation, the mole ratio of water to H₂SO₃ is 1 : 1

Therefore, moles of water = moles of H₂SO₃

Hence, moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Step 3: Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃

Mass = moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of H₂SO₃ = 82.08 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Therefore;

Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol ×  82.08 g/mol

                                             = 31.60 g

Thus, the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ is 31.6 g

<h3>#b. Calculating the actual yield</h3>

We need to calculate the actual yield

Percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Theoretical yield is 31.60 g

But; Percent yield = (Actual yield/theoretical yield)×100

Therefore;

Actual yield = Percent yield × theoretical yield)÷ 100

                   = (81.4 % × 31.6) ÷ 100

                  = 25.72 g

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 25.72 g

1. Round each of the following numbers to four significant figures, and express the result in scientific notation:
vfiekz [6]

The rounding up of the aforementioned number to four significant figures is as follows: 3.002 × 10²

<h3>What are significant figures?</h3>

Significant figures are figures that contribute to the general and overall value of the whole number.

Significant figures or digits are specifically meaningful with respect to the precision of a measurement.

Although, the original number given in this question has 9 significant figures, the number; 300.235800 can be rounded up to four significant figures as follows:

  • Decimal notation: 300.2
  • No. of significant figures: 4
  • No. of decimals: 1
  • Scientific notation: 3.002 × 10²

Therefore, the rounding up of the aforementioned number to four significant figures is as follows: 3.002 × 10².

Be sure to answer all parts. Calculate the pH of the following two buffer solutions: (a) 1.4 M CH3COONa/1.6 M CH3COOH. (b) 0.1 M
aalyn [17]

Answer:

a) pH = 4.68 (more effective)

b) pH =4.44.

Explanation:

The pH of buffer solution is obtained by Henderson Hassalbalch's equation.

The equation is:

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

a) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74

[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 1.4 M

[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 1.6 M

pH = 4.74 + log \frac{1.4}{1.6}= 4.68

This is more effective as there is very less difference in the concentration of salt and acid.

b) pKa of acetic acid = 4.74

[salt] = [CH₃COONa] = 0.1 M

[acid] = [CH₃COOH] = 0.2 M

pH = 4.74 + log \frac{0.1}{0.2}= 4.44
