In an ion with an unknown charge, the total mass of all the electrons was determined to be 2.19 ✕ 10−26 g, while the total mass

of its protons was 4.34 ✕ 10−23 g. What is the identity and charge of this ion? (Enter your answer in the form X^q±.)

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{Fe$^{{2+}}$}}

Explanation:

1. Number of electrons

\text{Number of electrons} = 2.19 \times 10^{-26}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{9.109 \times 10^{-28}\text{ g}} = \text{24 electrons}

2. Number of protons

\text{Number of protons} = 4.34 \times 10^{-23}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 proton}}{1.673 \times 10^{-24}\text{ g}} = \text{26 protons}

3. Identify the ion

An atom with 26 protons is iron, Fe.

A neutral atom of iron would have 26 electrons.

The ion has only 24 electrons, so it has lost two. The ion must have a charge of +2.

\text{The symbol for the ion is $\large \boxed{\textbf{Fe$^{\mathbf{2+}}$}}$}

The Ka for formic acid (HCO2H) is 1.8 × 10-4. What is the pH of a 0.35 M aqueous solution of sodium formate (NaHCO2)?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

9.36

Explanation:

Sodium formate is the conjugate base of formic acid.

Also,

K_a\times K_b=K_w

K_b for sodium formate is K_b=\frac {K_w}{K_a}

Given that:

K_a of formic acid = 1.8\times 10^{-4}

And, K_w=10^{-14}

So,

K_b=\frac {10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-4}}

K_b=5.5556\times 10^{-11}

Concentration = 0.35 M

HCOONa    ⇒     Na⁺ +    HCOO⁻

Consider the ICE take for the formate  ion as:

                                   HCOO⁻ + H₂O   ⇄   HCOOH + OH⁻

At t=0                              0.35                            -              -

At t =equilibrium           (0.35-x)                          x           x            

The expression for dissociation constant of sodium formate is:

K_{b}=\frac {[OH^-][HCOOH]}{[HCOO^-]}

5.5556\times 10^{-11}=\frac {x^2}{0.35-x}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.44×10⁻⁵  M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.44×10⁻⁵) = 4.64

pH + pOH = 14

So,

<u>pH = 14 - 4.64 = 9.36</u>
