Answer:

The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be  a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

pH of a buffer = pKa + log ([A-]/[Ha])

a mixture of 1.0 M HC2H3O2 and 1.0 M NaC2H3O2 (Ka for acetic acid = 1.8 x 10-5)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)

pH = 4.74

a mixture of 1.0 M NaCN and 1.0 M KCN (Ka for HCN = 4.9 x 10-10)

pH = -log( 4.9 * 10^-10) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)

pH = 9.30

a mixture of 1.0 M HCl and 1.0 M NaCl

The solution made from NaCl and HCl will NOT act as a buffer.

HCl is a strong acid while NaCl is salt of strong acid and strong base which do not from buffer solutions hence due to HCl PH is less than 7.

a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl (Kb for ammonia = 1.76 x 10^-5)

Ka * Kb = 1*10^-14

Ka = 10^-14 / 1.76*10^-5

Ka = 5.68*10^-10

pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10) + log (1/1)

pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10)

pH = 9.25

The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be  a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl

Draw a bond-line structure for CH3CH2O(CH2)2CH(CH3)2.<br><br> Include Lone Pairs in your answer.
mash [69]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

A bond line structure refers to any structure of a covalent molecule wherein the covalent bonds present in the molecule are represented with a single line for each level of bond order.

The bond-line structure of CH3CH2O(CH2)2CH(CH3)2 has been shown in the image attached. We know that oxygen has a lone pair of electrons and this has been clearly shown also in the image attached.
