Determine the [h3o+] of a 0.210 m solution of formic acid.

Chemistry

Nataly [62]3 years ago

When the Pka for formic acid = 3.77
and Pka = -㏒ Ka 
   3.77 = -㏒ Ka
∴Ka = 1.7x10^-4 

when Ka = [H+][HCOO-}/[HCOOH]

when we have Ka = 1.7x10^-4 &[HCOOH] = 0.21 m
so by substitution: by using ICE table value
1.7x10^-4 = X*X / (0.21-X)
(1.7x10^-4)*(0.21-X) = X^2      by solving this equation for X

∴X = 0.0059
∴[H+] = 0.0059
∴PH= -㏒ [H+]
       = -㏒ 0.0059
       = 2.23

What is the vapor pressure of an aqueous solution made up of 60.0g of urea (CH4N2O) in 180g of water? the vapor pressure of wate
djyliett [7]
To get the answer you use the Law of Raoult.


Raoult's law states that the decrease of the vapor pressure of a liquid is proportional to the molar fraction of the solute.


ΔP = Pa * Xa


Here Pa = 0.038 atm


And Xa = N a / (Na + Nb), where Na is number of moles of A and Nb is number of moles of b


Na = mass of urea / molar mass of urea =  60 g / (molar mass of CH4N2O)


molar mass of CH4N2O = 12 g/mol + 4*1g/mol + 2*14 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 60 g/mol


Na = 60 g / 60 g/mol = 1 mol


Nb = mass of water / molar mass of water = 180g / 18g/mol = 10 mol


Xa = 1 mol / (10 mol + 1 mol) = 1/11 =0.09091


ΔP = Pb * Xa = 0.038 atm * 0.09091 =  0.0035 atm


Then, the final vapor pressure of water is Pb - ΔP = 0.038atm - 0.0035atm = 0.035 atm.


 Answer: 0.035 atm
