. In your lab you are studying aspirin, and its acid/base properties. You find that a 1.00 L of a 0.500 M solution of aspirin ha

s a pH of 1.86. You are interested in learning about the % dissociation in a buffered solution of aspirin, so you make a new 1.00 L solution containing 0.500 moles of aspirin and 0.25 moles of the sodium salt of aspirin. What will the % dissociation be in this new buffered solution?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Initial volume of aspirin = 1.00 L

Initial concentration of aspirin = 0.500 M

Initial pH = 1.86

Hence, hydronium ion concentration will be calculated as follows.

               pH = -log[H^{+}]

or,              [H^{+}] = 10^{-pH}

                               = 10^{-1.86}

                                = 13.8 \times 10^{-3} M

As, buffer containing aspirin and its conjugate base is formed in 1 L solution.

Hence, moles of aspirin are 0.500 moles and moles of the conjugate base are 0.25 moles.

So, upon dissociation the concentration of acetylsalicylate ion and hydronium ion are the same.

Hence, pK_{a} value will be calculated as follows.

             K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[Aspirin]}

                           = \frac{[13.8 \times 10^{-3}]^{2}}{0.50}

                           = 3.8 \times 10^{-4}

Also,       pK_{a} = -log [K_{a}]

                          = -log [3.8 \times 10^{-4}]

                           = 3.41

Now, using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation we determine the pH as follows.

      pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[Aspirin]}

            = 3.41 + log \frac{[0.25]}{[0.5]}

            = 3.11

Determine the hydronium ion concentration of buffer as follows.

          [H^{+}] = 10^{-pH}

                            = 10^{-3.11}

                            = 7.76 \times 10^{-4} M

Therefore, we calculate the recent dissociation as follows.

          % dissociation = \frac{\text{Amount dissociated}}{\text{Initial concentration}} \times 100%

                                   = \frac{0.000776}{0.50 M} \times 100%

                                   = 1.5 \times 10^{-3} × 100

                                   = 0.15%

Thus, we can conclude that the value of % dissociation of new buffered solution is 0.15%.

Answer:

Groups like the Halogens, which include Chlorine and Flourine, share similar properties both behaviorally and structurally. The Periodic Table is essentially a bunch of patterns and trends and the groups (like the one with Sodium and Potassium) were grouped together because of these similarities.

Joebert had a rectangular cup and filled it with water. He measured the water's mass and volume. Then he got a density of 1.25g/
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Percent error = 25%

Explanation:

Given data:

Measured density of water = 1.25 g/mL

Accepted density value of water = 1 g/mL

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent error = (measured value - accepted value / accepted value) × 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percent error = (1.25 g/mL - 1 g/mL /1 g/mL )× 100

Percent error = (0.25 g/mL /1 g/mL )× 100

Percent error = 0.25 × 100

Percent error = 25%
