A buffer is prepared by adding 100 mL of 0.50 M sodium hydroxide to 100 mL of 0.75 M propanoic acid. Is this a buffer solution,

and if so, what is its pH?

The answer: is yes, It is a buffer solution.

first, we need to get moles of sodium hydroxide and propanoic acid:

moles NaOH = molarity * volume 
                       
                       = 0.5M * 0.1 L = 0.05 moles

moles propanoic acid = molarity * volume

                                     = 0.75 M * 0.1 L = 0.075 moles

[NaOH] at equilibrium = 0.05 m

[propanoic acid ] at equilibrium = 0.075 - 0.05 = 0.025 m

when Pka for propanoic acid (given) = 4.89 

so by substitution:

∴PH = Pka + ㏒[NaOH]/[propanoic acid ]

∴ PH = 4.89 + ㏒ 0.05 / 0.025

         = 5.19

3. A 3.455-g sample of a mixture was analyzed for barium ion by adding a small excess of sulfuric acid to an aqueous solution of
erik [133]

Answer:

Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass=4.8\%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass of mixture m=3.455g

Mass of Barium m_b=0.2815g

Equation of Reaction is given as

Ba2+ + H2SO4 => BaSO4 + 2 H+

Generally the equation for Moles of Barium  is mathematically given by

Since

 Moles of Ba^{2+} = Moles of BaSO_4

Therefore

 Moles of Ba^{2+}  = \frac{mass}{molar mass of BaSO4}  

 Moles of Ba^{2+} = \frac{0.2815}{233.39}= 0.0012061 mol

Generally the equation for Mass of Barium  is mathematically given by

 Mass\ of\ Ba^{2+} = Moles * Molar mass of Ba^{2+}  

 Mass\ of\ Ba^{2+} = 0.0012061 * 137.33 = 0.1656 g

Therefore

 Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass = mass of Ba^{2+}/mass of sample * 100%    

 Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass= \frac{0.1656}{ 3.455 }* 100%

 Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass=4.8\%

Why is an alloy is often more useful than a pure metal
mrs_skeptik [129]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A pure metal has specific properties. Sometimes we need that metal but with modified properties. So for the modification of properties we make alloys.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • An alloy is a mixture of two elements, one of which is a metal.
  • Alloys often have properties that are different to the metals they contain.
  • This makes them more useful than the pure metals alone.
  • For example, alloys are often harder than the metal they contain.

How should you add metal to the graduated cylinder so that it will not crack the glass at the bottom?
ella [17]

Answer:

you tilt the cylinder at a slight angle so that the metal slides down the sides, rather than drops all it`s weight to the bottom

Answer:

Cells are extremely small.

Explanation:

As Mendel describes in this story, cells are so small they cannot normally be seen with the naked eye. ... The total organism remains the same throughout this process, and (usually) has a longer time on earth than any one of its cells.
