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

HELP!!!
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

2.5 × 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ and 4.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ M OH⁻.

Explanation:

<em>∵ pH = - log[H₃O⁺]</em>

∴ 4.6 = - log[H₃O⁺].

∴ log[H₃O⁺] = - 4.6.

∴ [H₃O⁺] = 2.51 x 10⁻⁵.

∵ [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.

[H₃O⁺] = 2.51  x 10⁻⁵ M.

∴ [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴/(2.51  x 10⁻⁵ M) = 3.98 × 10⁻¹⁰ M ≅ 4.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ M.

<em>So, the right choice is: 2.5 × 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ and 4.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ M OH⁻.</em>

Explain why mixing of red paint with white paint does not constitute a chemical reaction even though the product has a different
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical change through chemical reactions, a new kind of matter forms. When a paint is mixed together, a physical change has occurred and not a chemical change. The different color one perceives is just a mere overlap between the reflected white and red color which produces another hue.

Not all color changes infers a chemical reaction. A paint is a complex mixture on its own.
