We mix 0.08 moles of chloroacetic acid (ClCH2COOH) and 0.04 moles of

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

A. pH using molar concentrations = 2.56

B. pH using activities = 2.46

C. pH of mixture = 2.56

Explanation:

A. pH using molar concentrations

ClCH₂COOH + H₂O ⇌ ClCH₂COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

HA + H₂O ⇌ A⁻ + H₃O⁺

We have a solution of 0.08 mol HA and 0.04 mol A⁻

We can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to calculate the pH.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{[\text{A}^{-}]}{\text{[HA]}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.04}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.50 \\& = &2.865 - 0.30 \\& = & \mathbf{2.56}\\\end{array}$

B. pH using activities

(i) Calculate [H⁺]

pH = -log[H⁺]

$\text{[H$^{+}$]} = 10^{-\text{pH}} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{-2.56}\text{ mol/L} = 2.73 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}$

(ii) Calculate the ionic strength of the solution

We have a solution of 0.08 mol·L⁻¹ HA, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ Na⁺, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ A⁻, and 0.00273 mol·L⁻¹ H⁺.

The formula for ionic strength is

$I = \dfrac{1}{2} \sum_{i} {c_{i}z_{i}^{2}}\\\\I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.04\times (+1)^{2} + 0.04\times(-1)^{2} + 0.00273\times(+1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.04 + 0.04 + 0.00273) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.08273 = 0.041$

(iii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.041} = -0.510\times 0.20 = -0.10\\\gamma = 10^{-0.10} = 0.79$

(iv) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻

a = γc = 0.79 × 0.04= 0.032

(v) Calculate the pH

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{a_{\text{A}^{-}}}{a_{\text{[HA]}}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.032}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.40 \\& = & 2.865 -0.40\\& = & \mathbf{2.46}\\\end{array}\\$

C. Calculate the pH of the mixture

The mixture initially contains 0.08 mol HA, 0.04 mol Na⁺, 0.04 mol A⁻, 0.05 mol HNO₃, and 0.06 mol NaOH.

The HNO₃ will react with the NaOH to form 0.05 mol Na⁺ and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

The excess NaOH will react with 0.01 mol HA to form 0.01 mol Na⁺ and 0.01 mol A⁻.

The final solution will contain 0.07 mol HA, 0.10 mol Na⁺, 0.05 mol A⁻, and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

(i) Calculate the ionic strength

$I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.10\times (+1)^{2} + 0.05 \times(-1)^{2} + 0.05\times(-1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.10 + 0.05 + 0.05) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.20 = 0.10$

(ii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.10} = -0.510\times 0.32 = -0.16\\\gamma = 10^{-0.16} = 0.69$

(iii) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻:

a = γc = 0.69 × 0.05= 0.034

(iv) Calculate the pH

$\text{pH} = 2.865 + \log \left(\dfrac{0.034}{0.07}\right ) = 2.865 + \log 0.49 = 2.865 - 0.31 = \mathbf{2.56}$

Why is it important for a scientist studying greenhouse effect to know about mater,forces and energy

vova2212 [387]

<span>In the 19th century, scientists realized that gases in the atmosphere cause a "greenhouse effect" which affects the planet's temperature. These scientists were interested chiefly in the possibility that a lower level of carbon dioxide gas might explain the ice ages of the distant past. At the turn of the century, Svante Arrhenius calculated that emissions from human industry might someday bring a global warming. Other scientists dismissed his idea as faulty. In 1938, G.S. Callendar argued that the level of carbon dioxide was climbing and raising global temperature, but most scientists found his arguments implausible. It was almost by chance that a few researchers in the 1950s discovered that global warming truly was possible. In the early 1960s, C.D. Keeling measured the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: it was rising fast. Researchers began to take an interest, struggling to understand how the level of carbon dioxide had changed in the past, and how the level was influenced by chemical and biological forces. They found that the gas plays a crucial role in climate change, so that the rising level could gravely affect our future. (This essay covers only developments relating directly to carbon dioxide, with a separate essay for Other Greenhouse Gases. Theories are discussed in the essay on Simple Models of Climate.)</span>

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

38 elements or Element 31: Gallium Element 32: Germanium Element 33: Arsenic Element 34: Selenium Element 35: Bromine Element .

Explanation:

How many transition metals are there?

The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals". As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.

How many oxygen atoms are in 8.20 g Na 2SO 4?

dusya [7]

Answer:

No. of atom =

no.of moles x avagardro's number xatomicity

= weight /molar mass x No x atomicity

=8.2/142 x6.02x10^23 x 4

=0.346 x 10^23(approximately)
