Answer:

34.5 mL

Explanation:

Given, we ned to prepared buffer solution with pH = 4.00 , volume = 100.0 mL .

[C6H5COOH] = 0.100 M , [C6H5COO-] = 0.120 M , pKa = 4.20

First we need to calculate the ratio of the conjugate base and acid

We know, Henderson Hasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log [C6H5COO-] /[C6H5COOH]

4.00 = 4.20 + log [C6H5COO-] /[C6H5COOH]

log [C6H5COO-] /[C6H5COOH] = 4.00-4.20

= - 0.20

Antilog from both side

[C6H5COO-] /[C6H5COOH] = 0.631

Now we are given the molarity of each acid and its conjugate base and we need to calculate for volume

Sum of volume = 100 mL = 0.100 L

volume of benzoic acid = x

volume of benzoate = 0.10 -x ,

so Volume of acid + volume of conjugate base = 0.100 L

[C6H5COO-] /[C6H5COOH] = 0.631

[C6H5COO-] = 0.631 * [C6H5COOH]

0.120 (0.1-x) = 0.631 *0.100x

So, x = 0.065

So, volume of benzoic acid = x = 0.0655 L

= 65.5 mL

So, volume of sodium benzoate = 0.1 -x

= 0.1-0.0655

= 0.0345 L

= 34.5 mL

So we need to mix 65.5 mL of 0.100 M benzoic acid and 34.5 mL of 0.120 M sodium benzoate form 100.0 mL of a pH=4.00 buffer solution.

Answer:

Volume benzoic acid= 77.74 mL  

Volume sodium benzoate: = 22.26 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume = 100.0 mL

pH = 4.00

Molarity benzoic acid = 0.100 M

pKa benzoic acid = 4.20

Molarity sodium benzoate = 0.220 M

Step 2

pH = pKa + log([base]/[acid])

4 = 4.2 + log([base]/[acid])

-0.2 = log([base]/[acid])

10^-0.2 = [base]/[acid]  

0.63 =  [base]/[acid]  

Step 3

start with 100 mL 0.1 M benzoic acid

0.100 L* 0.1M = 0.01 moles.  

Since base/acid = 0.63, add 0.63*0.01 moles base = 0.0063 moles base.

And 0.0063 moles of a 0.22 M salt solution are x mL:

0.22 moles = 1000 mL

1 mole = 1000/0.22 mL

0.0063 moles = 1000*0.0063/0.22 mL = 28.63 mL .

So a mixture of 100 mL 0.1 M bencoic acid + 28.63 mL of 0.22 benzoate has pH =4.00

Step 4: For a total volume of 100 mL we'll have:

Volume benzoic acid: 100*100/(128.63) = 77.74 mL  

Volume sodium benzoate: 28.63*100/(128.63) = 22.26 mL

What do the coefficients in front of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction represent ?
makvit [3.9K]

It indicates the number of moles of reactants and products

Explanation:

The coefficients in front of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction represents the number of moles of reactants and products.

Every reaction is made up of equal number of moles of reactants and products. Thus, chemical equations are written in such a way to obey the law of conservation of matter.

The numbers used are usually whole numbers and the are very important in stoichiometry.

How many moles of NaCl are produced if 239.7 grams of Na2S reacts with plenty of AlCl3?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

6.142 moles of NaCl

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2AlCl3 + 3Na2S —> Al2S3 + 6NaCl

Next, we determine the number of mole in 239.7 g of Na2S. This is illustrated below:

Mass mass of Na2S = 78.048g/mol

Mass of Na2S = 239.7g

Number of mole Na2S =..?

Mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole Na2S = 239.7/78.048 = 3.071 moles

Finally, we can obtain the number of mole of NaCl produced from the reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of Na2S reacted to produce 6 moles of NaCl.

Therefore, 3.071 moles of Na2S will react to produce = (3.071 x 6)/3 = 6.142 moles of NaCl

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

1.3 × 10³ cm³

Explanation:

The gas occupies a volume of V₁ = 310 cm³ under standard temperature and pressure (STP), that is, T₁ = 273.15 K and P₁ = 1.0 atm. In order to find the volume V₂ under different conditions we can use the combined gas law formula.

\frac{P_{1}.V_{1}}{T_{1}} =\frac{P_{2}.V_{2}}{T_{2}} \\V_{2}=\frac{P_{1}.V_{1}.T_{2}}{T_{1}.P_{2}}=\frac{1.0atm\times 310cm^{3} \times 2473K }{273.15K \times 2.1atm} =1.3 \times 10^{3} cm^{3}
