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 waterbed mattress has the following dimensions: 210 cm X 160 cm X 25 cm. The density of water is 62.4lb/ft3. What is the weigh
artcher [175]

<u>Answer:</u> The weight of water bed in pounds is 1850.16 lb

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

V=lbh

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 210 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 160 cm

h = height of cuboid = 25 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=210\times 160\times 25=8.4\times 10^5cm^3=29.65ft^3      (Conversion factor:  1cm^3=3.53\times 10^{-5}ft^3 )

To calculate the mass of waterbed, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of waterbed = 62.4lb/ft^3

Volume of waterbed = 29.65ft^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

62.4lb/ft^3=\frac{\text{Mass of waterbed}}{29.65ft^3}\\\\\text{Mass of waterbed}=(62.4lb/ft^3\times 29.65ft^3)=1850.16lb

Hence, the weight of water bed in pounds is 1850.16 lb
