Answer:

41 g

Explanation:

We have a buffer formed by a weak acid (C₆H₅COOH) and its conjugate base (C₆H₅COO⁻ coming from NaC₆H₅COO). We can find the concentration of C₆H₅COO⁻ (and therefore of NaC₆H₅COO) using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [C₆H₅COO⁻]/[C₆H₅COOH]

pH - pKa = log [C₆H₅COO⁻] - log [C₆H₅COOH]

log [C₆H₅COO⁻] = pH - pKa + log [C₆H₅COOH]

log [C₆H₅COO⁻] = 3.87 - (-log 6.5 × 10⁻⁵) + log 0.40

[C₆H₅COO⁻] = [NaC₆H₅COO] = 0.19 M

We can find the mass of NaC₆H₅COO using the following expression.

M = mass NaC₆H₅COO / molar mass NaC₆H₅COO × liters of solution

mass NaC₆H₅COO = M × molar mass NaC₆H₅COO × liters of solution

mass NaC₆H₅COO = 0.19 mol/L × 144.1032 g/mol × 1.5 L

mass NaC₆H₅COO = 41 g

In cucumbers, green skin (G) is dominant to striped skin (g). If a farmer crosses a heterozygous (hybrid) cucumber with a homozy
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Half will be green and half will be striped

Explanation:

Given green skin (G) is dominant to striped skin (g).

Cucumber 1 : Heterozygous (Gg)

Cucumber 2 : Homozygous striped (gg)

When Gg X gg :

     G      g

g   Gg   gg

g   Gg   gg

Half of the offspring will have Gg genotype so they will be green. Other half will have gg genotype so they will be striped.

A gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 kg. how many moles of water (18.02 g/mol) is this?
garik1379 [7]
First, we will convert the mass of the gallon to grams:
a gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 * 1000 = 3790 grams of water

number of moles can be calculated using the following rule:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore,
number of moles = 3790 / 18.02 = 210.32 moles

If the atmospheric pressure is 0.975 atm what is the pressure of the enclosed gas
Nuetrik [128]
Missing in your question:
Picture (1)
when its an open- tube manometer and the h = 52 cm. 
when the pressure of the atmosphere is equal the pressure of the gas plus the pressure from the mercury column 52 Cm so, we can get the pressure of the gas from this formula:
P(atm) = P(gas) + height (Hg)
∴P(gas) = P(atm) - height (Hg)
              = 0.975 - (520/760) 
              = 0.29 atm
Note: I have divided 520 mm Hg by 760 to convert it to atm
Picture (2)
The pressure of the gas is the pressure experts by the column of mercury and when we have the Height (Hg)= 67mm 
So the pressure of the gas =P(atm) + Height (Hg)
                                             =  0.975 + (67/ 760) = 1.06 atm
Picture (3) 
As the tube is closed SO here the pressure of the gas is equal the height of the mercury column, and when we have the height (Hg) = 103 mm. so, we can get the P(gas) from this formula:
P(gas) = Height(Hg)
           = (103/760) = 0.136 atm
