er solutions can be produced by mixing a weak acid with its conjugate base or by mixing a weak base with its conjugate acid. The

Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, pH=pKa+log[base][acid] allows you to calculate the pH of a buffer. Note that molarity, moles, and millimoles are all proportional, so you can substitute the number moles, or millimoles, for the concentration terms in this formula. Part A You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 5.03. You already have a solution that contains 10. mmol (millimoles) of acetic acid. How many millimoles of acetate (the conjugate base of acetic acid) will you need to add to this solution? The pKa of acetic acid is 4.74.

Answer:

You need to add 19,5 mmol of acetates

Explanation:

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [base]/[acid]

For the buffer of acetates:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻]/[CH₃COOH]

As pH you want is 5,03, pka is 4,74 and milimoles of acetic acid are 10:

5,03 = 4,74 + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻]/[10]

1,95 = [CH₃COO⁻]/[10]

<em>[CH₃COO⁻] = 19,5 milimoles</em>

Thus, to produce an acetate buffer of 5,03 having 10 mmol of acetic acid, you need to add 19,5 mmol of acetates.

I hope it helps!

What must be true for a substance to be able to dissolve in water?
zvonat [6]

In order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent, the attractive forces between solute particles and the solvent particles must be stronger than the attractive forces between solute-solute and solvent-solvent particles. This is important so that the solute will remain in solution.

Which equation represents the correct net ionic equation for the reaction between Ca(OH)2 and H2SO4?
Georgia [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct net ionic equation for the reaction is 2H^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation is defined as the equations in which spectator ions are not included.

Spectator ions are the ones that are present equally on the reactant and product sides. They do not participate in the reaction.  

The balanced molecular equation is:

Ca(OH)_2(aq)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)

The complete ionic equation follows:

Ca^{2+}(aq)+2OH^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)+H_2O(l)

As calcium and sulfate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

2H^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)

Hence, the correct net ionic equation for the reaction is 2H^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)

Gold (111) Chloride
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gold (111) Chloride:

AuCl₃

The oxidation state of gold is +3.

Chlorine is present in group seventeen and have seven valance electrons . Thus it accept one electron to complete the octet and show oxidation state -1.

When it react with gold(III) three chlorine atoms are combine with one gold atom to make compound overall neutral.

Calcium Carbonate:

CaCO₃

Carbonate formula is CO₃²⁻ . It means it carry -2 charge . Calcium is present in group two. It has two valance electrons and lose them to get complete octet thus shows +2 oxidation state.

When it combine with carbonate the overall compound is neutral because -2 and +2 charges cancel each other.

Hydrobromic Acid

HBr

Hydrogen has one electron while bromine has seven valance electrons. Bromine require one more electron to complete the octet. It react with hydrogen by sharing of one electron of hydrogen and form polar covalent compound.
