Answers are:
1) The balanced oxidation half reaction: 2I⁻(aq) → I₂(s) + 2e⁻.
Iodine is oxidized (lost electrons) from -1 to neutral charge (0).
2) The balanced reduction half-reaction: 2H₂O(l) + 2e⁻ → H₂(g) + 2OH⁻.
Hydrogen is reduced (gain electrons) from +1 to neutral charge.
3) The oxidation <span>reaction takes place at the anode.</span>

Determine the pH of the resulting solution if 25 mL of 0.400 M strychnine (C21H22N2O2) is added to 50 mL of 0.200 M HCl? Assume
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

pH = 4.56

Explanation:

The strychnine reacts with HCl as follows:

C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂ + HCl ⇄ C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺ + Cl⁻

<em />

For strychnine buffer:

pOH = 5.74 + log [C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺] / [C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂]

Initial moles of C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂ are:

0.025L * (0.400 mol / L) = 0.01 moles C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂

And of HCl are:

0.05L * (0.200 mol / L) = 0.01 moles HCl

That means after the reaction, you will have just 0.01 moles of C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺ in 50mL + 25mL = 0.075L. And molarity is:

[C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺] = 0.01 mol / 0.075L = 0.1333M

This conjugate acid, is in equilibrium with water as follows:

C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂ + H₃O⁺

<em />

<em>Where Ka = Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 1.8x10⁻⁶ = 5.556x10⁻⁹</em>

<em />

Ka is defined as:

Ka = 5.556x10⁻⁹ = [C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂] [H₃O⁺] / [C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺]

In equilibrium, concentrations are:

C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂ = X

H₃O⁺ = X

C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂H⁺ = 0.1333M - X

Replacing in Ka expression:

5.556x10⁻⁹ = [X] [X] / [0.1333M - X]

7.39x10⁻¹⁰ - 5.556x10⁻⁹X = X²

7.39x10⁻¹⁰ - 5.556x10⁻⁹X - X² = 0

Solving for X:

X = - 2.72x10⁻⁵M → False solution. There is no negative concentrations

X = 2.72x10⁻⁵M → Right solution.

As H₃O⁺ = X

H₃O⁺ = 2.72x10⁻⁵M

And pH = -log H₃O⁺

You will learn that matter is neither created nor destroyed in any chemical change. Is this statement a theory or a law? Explain
Assoli18 [71]
This is a law. That is because it cannot be refuted in any way. A theory often depends on perfect conditions. Even simple theories often are based on perfect conditions that cannot be found on earth. Unlike it, laws are applicable no matter where and how you are. Such are for example Newton's laws or laws of thermodynamics.
