Answer:

pH = 4.58

Explanation:

The reaction of NaOH with acetic acid, CH₃COOH occurs as follows:

NaOH + CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O

<em>Moles that react:</em>

NaOH = 10mL = 0.010L * (0,240mol / L) = 0.0024 moles NaOH

CH₃COOH = 50.0mL = 0.050L * (0.120mol / L) = 0.0060 moles CH₃COOH

That means after the reaction you will have:

CH₃COOH: 0.0060 mol - 0.0024 mol = 0.0036 moles

CH₃COO⁻Na⁺: 0.0024 moles

in solution, you will have the mixture of a weak acid (Acetic acid), with its conjugate base (sodium acetate, CH₃COO⁻Na⁺). And pH of this buffer can be determined using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

For Acetic buffer pKa = 4.76:

pH = 4.76 + log [CH₃COO⁻Na⁺] / [CH₃COOH]

<em>Where [] is molarity of each species or moles</em>

<em />

Replacing:

pH = 4.76 + log [0.0024 moles] / [0.0036 moles]

<h3>pH = 4.58</h3>

How to balance equations
dezoksy [38]

start the balancing by writing down how many atoms there are per element. we’ll use this as an example:

C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + CO2

C = 3 C = 1

H = 8 H = 2

O = 2 O = 3

balance the carbon first, as it is easiest to do. add a coefficient to the single carbon atom on the right of the equation to balance it with the 3 carbon atoms on the left of the equation:

C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + (3)CO2

now there are 3 carbon atoms on each side. however, when you do this, you multiply the amount of oxygen atoms you had. therefore, now, there are 6 carbon atoms in 3CO2, plus that other oxygen atom in H2O. you now have 7 O atoms instead of 3.

C = 3 C = 3

H = 8 H = 2

O = 2 O = 7

now let’s move on to the hydrogen atoms.

C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + 3CO2

you have 8 hydrogen atoms on the left side, and 2 on the right. in order to balance them, you have to multiply the right side’s hydrogen atoms by 4. 4(2) = 8.

C3H8 + O2 --> (4)H2O + 3CO2

now both hydrogen and carbon atoms are balanced. same amount on both sides. however, your oxygen atoms have changed due to the multiplying (right side). you now have 10 of them.

C = 3 C = 3

H = 8 H = 8

O = 2 O = 10

now we balance the oxygen atoms. multiply the left side of the equation’s oxygen atoms by 5. 5(2) = 10

C3H8 + (5)O2 --> 4H2O + 3CO2

the chemical equation is all balanced. basically, just multiply with numbers until it equals the same amount on both sides.

C = 3 C = 3

H = 8 H = 8

O = 10 O = 10
