A chemical symbol designates an element that belongs to the periodic table.

A chemical formula combines two or more symbols and it represents a chemical compound. We notice that the chemical symbols are followed oftenly by a subscript that represents the mole proprtions of next element.

A buffer solution contains an equivalent amount of acid and base. The pH of the solution with an acid dissociation constant (pKa) value of 3.75 is 3.82.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

The amount of hydrogen or the proton ion in the solution is expressed by the pH. It is given by the sum of pKa and the log of the concentration of acid and bases.

Given,

Concentration of salt [HCOO⁻] = 0.24 M

Concentration of acid [HCOOH] = 0.20 M

The acid dissociation constant (pKa) = 3.75

pH is calculated from the Hendersons equation as,

pH = pKa + log [salt] ÷ [acid]

pH = 3.75 + log [0.24] ÷ [0.20]

= 3.75 + log (1.2)

= 3.75 + 0.079

= 3.82

Therefore, 3.82 is the pH of the buffer.

The mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 1.108 g

<h3>What is the mass of carbon in 1 liter of the mixture?</h3>

The mass of carbon in 1 liter of the mixture is determined as follows:

First the moles of gas is determined using the ideal gas formula:

  • n = PV/RT

n = (1 * 1)/(0.08205L * 298)

n = 0.0409 mole of total gas

mass of gas is then determined using the formula:

  • mass = density * volume

mass = 1 * 1.375

mass = 1.375 g

Let x = mass of CH₄ and y = mass of C₄H₁₀

x + y = 1.375 g

nCH₄ + nC₄H₁₀ = ntotat

moles = mass/molar mass

x + y = 1.695 => y = 1.695 - x

(x/molar mass of CH₄) + [(1.375 - x)/ molar mass C₄H₁₀ = 0.0409

x/16 + (1.375 - x)/58 = 0.0409

x = 0.380 g CH₄

y = 1.375 - 0.380

y = 0.995 g of C₄H₁₀

mass of C in CH₄ = 12/16 * 0.380 = 0.285

mass of C in C₄H₁₀ = 48/58 * 0.995 = 0.823

Mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 0.285 + 0.823

Mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 1.108 g

In conclusion, the carbon is the major component in the mixture.
