Answer:
Carboxylic acid
A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO₂H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group. Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids.
Answer:
a) [A⁻]/[HA] = 0.227
b) [A⁻]/[HA] = 0.991
c) [A⁻]/[HA] = 2.667
Explanation:
In the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, HA stands from an acid an A⁻ stands from its conjugate base, as follows:
- CH₃CH₂CO₂H = HA
- CH₃CH₂CO₂⁻ = A⁻
pH = pka + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
pH = 4.874 + Log[CH₃CH₂CO₂⁻]/[CH₃CH₂CO₂H]
- (a)
4.23 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
-0.644 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
0.227 = [A⁻]/[HA]
- (b)
4.87 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
-0.004 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
0.991 = [A⁻]/[HA]
- (c)
5.30 = 4.874 + Log [A⁻]/[HA]
0.426 = Log [A⁻]/[HA]
= [A⁻]/[HA]
2.667 = [A⁻]/[HA]
