What is the ph of the benzoic acid solution prior to adding sodium benzoate?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
7 0
The acid dissociation constant of benzoic acid is 6.5 x 10^-5. Therefore, the pH of the benzoic acid solution prior to adding sodium benzoate is:

pH = -log[Ka]
pH = -log (6.5 x 10^-5)
pH = 4.19

The pH of the benzoic acid solution is 4.19 which is acidic, but a weak acid.

A molecule has the empirical formula C4H6O. If its molecular weight is determined to be about 212 g/mol, what is the most likely
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The molecular formula is C12H18O3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The empirical formula is C4H6O

Molecular weight is 212 g/mol

atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

atomic mass of H = 1 g/mol

atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula

Molar mass = 4* 12 + 6*1 +16

Molar mass = 70 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate the molecular formula

We have to multiply the empirical formula by n

n = the molecular weight of the empirical formula / the molecular weight of the molecular formula

n = 70 /212 ≈ 3

We have to multiply the empirical formula by 3

3*(C4H6O- = C12H18O3

The molecular formula is C12H18O3

What is the concentration of Htions at a pH = 11?
Lostsunrise [7]
Answer:
a) 1 x 10^-11 mol/L
b) 1 x 10^-6 mol/L
c) 1 x 10^-5 fewer H+ ions

Explanation

pH stands for Power of Hydrogen, the more acidic a substance is, the more H+ ions it has rendering the substance acidic. a pH of 1 means the concentration of H+ ions is 1 x 10^-1. A pH of 7 means the concentration of H+ ions is 1 x 10^-7 and so on.

10^-11 has 10^-5 more H+ ions than 10^-6

Hope this helps :)

The shape of a protein molecule resembles _____.
emmainna [20.7K]

The shape of a protein molecule resembles BEADS ON A STRING.

Proteins are macro molecules that are formed from amino acids. There are different types of amino acids, thus, different amino acids combine together to form different types of protein. This means that, proteins are formed from sequences of amino acids; they are long chains of different amino acids, that is why, they are likened to beads on string.

The structures of proteins are in three dimensions, they are primary, secondary and tertiary structures. The primary structure refers to the sequence of the amino acids in a protein. The amino acids in the primary structure are linked together by peptide bonds.
