A buffer solution is made using a weak acid, HA. If the pH of the buffer is 9 and the ratio of A– to HA is 100, what is the pKa

of HA?

To calculate the pKa of the weak acid, we use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. It is expressed as pH = pKa - log [HA]/[A-]. This equation takes into account the concentration of the substance that does not dissociates into ions since it is a weak acid. We caculate as follows:

pH = pKa - log [HA]/[A-]
9 = pKa - log 1/100
pKa = 7

How many nonbonding electron pairs are there in the lewis structure of the peroxide ion, o22−?
Tom [10]
There is 6 non - bonding pairs.
Let me show you one easy method to do this.
o22-, oxygen valence electron = 6 here we have two so total 12, and -2 that means we add electrons so it’s all equal to 14 right.
whenever need to find lone pair, subtract the number you get with the lowest multiple of 8.
here we total 14 valence electron right so lowest multiple of 8 would be 8.
so 14 - 8 = 6 and that is our answer.
Let me know if you have Problem with chemistry.

0.2640 g of sodium oxalate is dissolved in a flask and requires 30.74 mL of potassium
Free_Kalibri [48]

Moles of potassium permanganate = 0.0008

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Titration is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution by reacting with another solution which is known to be concentrated (usually a standard solution). Determination of the endpoint/equivalence point of the reaction can use indicators according to the appropriate pH range  

Reaction

5Na2C2O4(aq) + 2KMnO4(aq) + 8H2SO4(aq) ---> 2MnSO4(aq) + K2SO4(aq) + 5Na2SO4(aq) +  10CO2(g) + 8H2O(1)

The end point ⇒titrant and analyte moles equal

titrant : potassium  permanganate-KMnO4

analyte : sodium oxalate - Na2C2O4

so moles of KMnO4 = moles of Na2C2O4

moles of Na2C2O4(mass = 0.2640 g, MW=134 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{0.264}{134 g/mol}\\\\mol=0.002

From equation, mol ratio  Na2C2O4 : KMnO4 = 5 : 2, so mol KMnO4 :

\tt \dfrac{2}{5}\times 0.002=0.0008
