Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate pH you need to use Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

Where HA is the acid concentration and A⁻ is the conjugate base concentration.

The equilibrium of acetic acid is:

CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺ pka: 4,75

Where <em>CH₃COOH </em>is the acid and <em>CH₃COO⁻ </em>is the conjugate base.

Thus, Henderson-Hasselbalch formula for acetic acid equilibrium is:

pH = 4,75 + log₁₀ \frac{[CH_{3}COO^-]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}

a) The pH is:

pH = 4,75 + log₁₀ \frac{[2 mol]}{[2 mol]}

<em>pH = 4,75</em>

<em></em>

b) The pH is:

pH = 4,75 + log₁₀ \frac{[2 mol]}{[1mol]}

<em>pH = 5,05</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid ( C 7 H 6 O 3 CX7HX6OX3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic anhydri
pychu [463]

Answer: The theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}  \text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{3.20g}{138.12g/mol}=0.023moles

mass of acetic anhydride = density\times volume =1.082g/ml\times 3.71ml=4.01g

\text{Moles of acetic anhydride}=\frac{4.01g}{102.04g/mol}=0.039moles

C_9H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of salycylic acid require 1 mole of acetic anhydride

Thus 0.023 moles of  salycylic acid require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles  of acetic anhydride

Thus salycylic acid is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and acetic anhydride is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of salycylic give = 1 mole of aspirin

Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles  of aspirin

Mass of aspirin = moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.023moles\times 180.15g/mol=4.14g

Thus theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g
