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

NEED HELP! what is a orbital . describe
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

In chemistry and quantum mechanics, an orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of an electron, electron pair, or (less commonly) nucleons. An orbital can contain two electrons with paired spins and is often associated with a specific region of an atom.

Calculate the number of grams of oxygen gas in a 24L container at STP
romanna [79]

There are 34 g of oxygen in the container.

We can use the<em> Ideal Gas Law</em> to solve this problem.

pV = nRT

But n = \frac{m}{M}, so

pV = \frac{m}{M}RT and

m = \frac{pVM}{RT}\\

STP is 0 °C and 1 bar, so

m = \frac{\text{1 bar} \times \text{24 L} \times 32.00 \text{ g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}}{\text{0.083 14 } \text{bar}\cdot\text{L}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1}\times\text{273.15 K} } = \textbf{34 g}\\

if the density of copper is 8.9g/cm^3 and the Volume of the sample is 23.4 mL what would be the mass? ​
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The mass of copper = 208.26 grams.

Explanation:

Density = mass / volume

8.9 = mass / 23.4

mass = 8.9 * 23.4

= 208.26 grams.
