Answer:
Use a ratio of 0.44 mol lactate to 1 mol of lactic acid
Explanation:
John could prepare a lactate buffer.
He can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to find the acid/base ratio for the buffer.
![\text{pH} = \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}}\\\\3.5 = 3.86 + \log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}}\\\\\log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}} = 3.5 - 3.86 = -0.36\\\\\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}} = 10^{-0.36} = \mathbf{0.44}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BpH%7D%20%3D%20%5Ctext%7BpK%7D_%7B%5Ctext%7Ba%7D%7D%20%2B%20%5Clog%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BA%24%5E%7B-%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C3.5%20%3D%203.86%20%2B%20%5Clog%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BA%24%5E%7B-%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Clog%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BA%24%5E%7B-%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%7D%20%3D%203.5%20-%203.86%20%3D%20-0.36%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BA%24%5E%7B-%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%7D%20%3D%2010%5E%7B-0.36%7D%20%3D%20%5Cmathbf%7B0.44%7D)
He should use a ratio of 0.44 mol lactate to 1 mol of lactic acid.
For example, he could mix equal volumes of 0.044 mol·L⁻¹ lactate and 0.1 mol·L⁻¹ lactic acid.
Answer:
The volume will be 0.031 L
Explanation:
Since temperature is constant, Boyle's law is applied in this case.
Boyle's law States that at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to it's pressure.
From this statement it was deduced that P1V1 = P2V2
From the question, P1 = 1atm, V1 = 1.55L, P2 = 50 atm and V2 is to be calculated.
V2 = P1V1/P2
= 1×1.55÷50
=0.031 L
Two types of chemical bonds common in compounds are covalent bonds and ionic bonds. The elements in any compound are always present in fixed ratios. Example 1: Pure water is a compound made from two elements - hydrogen<span> and </span>oxygen<span>.</span>
Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.
The correct answer is option A. Energy cannot be created during an ordinary chemical reaction. There is no such thing as an ordinary chemical reaction. Energy cannot be created or destroyed this is according to the law of conservation of energy. It can only be transformed from one form to another form.
