Describe the buffer capacity of the acetic acid buffer solution in relation to the addition of both concentrated and dilute acid

s and bases.
Chemistry
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is in the explanation

Explanation:

Acetic acid, CH₃COOH, is a weak acid that will produce a buffer when its conjugate base, CH₃COO⁻, acetate ion, is added to the solution.

<em>That is because a buffer is the mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.</em>

When an acid (HX) is added to the solution, the acetate ion will react producing acetic acid, thus:

CH₃COO⁻ + HX → CH₃COOH + X⁻

For this reason, the pH doesn't change abruptly because H⁺ ions are not produced.

Now, if a  base (BOH) is added to the buffer, CH₃COOH will react producing acetate ion and water, thus:

CH₃COOH + BOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H₂O + B⁺.

In the same way, there are not produced free OH⁻ and the pH doesn't change significantly.

What mass of calcium chloride is needed to prepare 2.657 L of a 1.56 M solution?
inna [77]

Answer:

459.126 grams of calcium chloride is needed to prepare 2.657 L of a 1.56 M solution

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution that indicates the amount of moles of solute that appear dissolved in one liter of the mixture. In other words, molarity is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The Molarity of a solution is determined by the following expression:

Molarity=\frac{number of moles of solute}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liter}

In this case:

  • Molarity: 1.56 M= 1.56 \frac{moles}{liter}
  • Number of moles of calcium chlorine= ?
  • Volume= 2.657 liters

Replacing:

1.56 M=\frac{Number of moles of calcium chlorine}{2.657 liters}

Solving:

Number of moles of calcium chlorine= 1.56 M* 2.657 liters

Number of moles of calcium chlorine= 4.14 moles

In other side, you know:

  • Ca: 40 g/mole
  • Cl: 35.45 g/mole

Then the molar mass of the calcium chloride CaCl₂ is:

CaCl₂= 40 g/mole + 2* 35.45 g/mole= 110.9 g/mole

Now it is possible to apply the following rule of three: if in 1 mole there is 110.9 g of CaCl₂, in 4.14 moles of the compound how much mass is there?

mass=\frac{4.14 moles*110.9g}{1 mole}

mass= 459.126 g

<u><em>459.126 grams of calcium chloride is needed to prepare 2.657 L of a 1.56 M solution</em></u>

A hydrate is compound that included water molecules within its crystal structure. During an experiment to determine the percent
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The percent by mass of water in this crystal is:

  • <u>21.4%</u>

Explanation:

This exercise can be easily solved using a simple rule of three where the initial weight of the hydrated crystal (6,235 g) is taken into account as 100% of the mass, and the percentage to which the mass of 4.90 g corresponds (after getting warm). First, the values and unknown variable are established:

  • 6,235 g = 100%
  • 4.90 g = X

And the value of the variable X is found:

  • X = (4.90 g * 100%) / 6,235 g
  • X = approximately 78.6%.

The calculated value is not yet the percentage of the water, since the water after heating the glass has evaporated, therefore, the remaining percentage must be taken, which can be calculated by subtraction:

  • Water percentage = Total percentage - Percentage after heating.
  • <u>Water percentage = 100% - 78.6% = 21.4%</u>
