The electron configuration of an atom can be determined by identifying first the right order of the electron shells. The atomic number of Magnesium is 12 so we expect the electrons also sum up to 12. The condensed electron configuration is Ne 3s2. The complete configuration is 1s2  2s2 2p6 3s2.

The ph of a solution containing 0.818 M acetic acid<br> (ka1.76*10-5) ans 0.172 M sodium acetate is?
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

It is known that the relation between pH and pK_{a} is as follows.

              pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{[salt]}{[acid]}

and,     pK_{a} = -log K_{a}

Hence, first we will calculate the value of pK_{a} as follows.

                   pK_{a} = -log K_{a}

                               = -log (1.76 \times 10^{-5}

                               = 4.75

Now, we will calculate the value of pH as follows.

              pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{[\text{sodium acetate}]}{\text{acetic acid}}

                    = 4.75 + log \frac{0.172}{0.818}      

                    = 4.75 + (-0.677)

                    = 4.07

Therefore, we can conclude that the pH of given solution is 4.07.
