We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH

The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])

We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87

So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.

A solid object has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL.
Pachacha [2.7K]

The density of a solid object that has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL is 3.87g/mL.

<h3>How to calculate density?</h3>

Density is the measure of the mass of matter contained by a unit volume. It can be calculated by dividing the mass of the substance by its volume.

According to this question, a solid object is said to have a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL.

1 pound = 453.592 grams

1.62 Ibs is equivalent to 734.82 grams

Density of the solid object = 734.82 grams ÷ 190 mL

Density = 3.87g/mL

Therefore, the density of a solid object that has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL is 3.87g/mL.

What is the molarity of a potassium triiodide solution, KI3(aq), if 30.00 mL of the solution is required to completely react wit
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.203 M

Explanation:

Using the formula C(oxi) x V(oxi) / [C(red)  x  V(red)] = N(oxi) / N(red)

Where oxi and red means reducing agent and oxidising agent respectively.

C = Concentration, V = Volume and N = number of moles.

C(oxi) = 0.5 M

V(oxi) = mL

C(red) = ?

V(red) = 30mL

 Equation of reaction = 2K2S2O3 + KI3 = K2S4O6 + 3KI

so N(red) = 1 , N(oxi) = 2

from the equation above,

C(red) = 0.5 x 25 x 1 / (2 x 30)

          = 0.203 M.
