Why do scientists prefer to describe matter by its mass rather than its weight?

Mostly because weight in the size of something and mass generalizes the amount in something <span />

It is because weight can be change in different gravity but mass remains same in any condition 'cause it does not depend on any physical condition.

If you have access to stock solutions of 1.00 M H3PO4, 1.00 M of HCl, and 1.00 M NaOH solution, (and distilled water of course),
garri49 [273]

Answer:

0.10L of 1.00M of H₃PO₄ and 0.1613L of 1.00M NaOH

Explanation:

The pKa's of phosphoric acid are:

H₃PO₄/H₂PO₄⁻ = 2.1

H₂PO₄⁻/HPO₄²⁻ = 7.2

HPO₄²⁻/PO₄³⁻ = 12.0

To make a buffer with pH 9.40 we need to convert all H₃PO₄ to H₂PO₄⁻ and an amount of H₂PO₄⁻ to HPO₄²⁻

To have a 50mM solution of phosphoures we need:

2L * (0.050mol / L) = 0.10 moles of H₃PO₄

0.10 mol * (1L / mol) = 0.10L of 1.00M of H3PO4

To convert the H₃PO₄ to H₂PO₄⁻ and to HPO₄²⁻ must be added NaOH, thus:

H₃PO₄ + NaOH → H₂PO₄⁻ + H₂O + Na⁺

H₂PO₄⁻ + NaOH → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O + Na⁺

Using H-H equation we can find the amount of NaOH added:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

<em>Where [A-] is conjugate base, HPO₄²⁻ and [HA] is weak acid, H₂PO₄⁻</em>

<em>pH = 7.40</em>

<em>pKa = 7.20</em>

[A-] + [HA] = 0.10moles <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

7.40 = 7.20 + log 0.10mol - [HA] / [HA]

0.2 = log 0.10mol - [HA] / [HA]

1.5849 = 0.10mol - [HA] / [HA]

1.5849 [HA] = 0.10mol - [HA]

2.5849[HA] = 0.10mol

[HA] = 0.0387 moles = H₂PO₄⁻ moles

That means moles of HPO₄²⁻ are 0.10mol - 0.0387moles = 0.0613 moles

The moles of NaOH needed to convert all H₃PO₄ in H₂PO₄⁻ are 0.10 moles

And moles needed to obtain 0.0613 moles of HPO₄²⁻ are 0.0613 moles

Total moles of NaOH are 0.1613moles * (1L / 1mol) = 0.1613L of 1.00M NaOH

Then, you need to dilute both solutions to 2.00L with distilled water.

A piece of copper has a mass of 660 g. How many atoms does the sample contain?
son4ous [18]
The conversions that will be used are:

1 mole of copper / 63.5 grams of copper
6.02 x 10²³ atoms of copper / 1 mole of copper

Multiplying the given mass by these conversions,

660 g * (1 mol Cu / 63.5 g Cu) * (6.02 x 10²³ Cu atoms / 1 mole Cu)

The sample contains 6.25 x 10²⁴ atoms of copper
