What volume would a 0. 250 mole sample of h2 gas occupy if it had a which a a pressure of 1. 70 atm and a temperature of 35 C?

frosja888 [35]

The volume of 0. 250 mole sample of $H_{2}$ gas occupy if it had a pressure of 1. 70 atm and a temperature of 35 °C is 3.71 L.

Calculation,

According to ideal gas equation which is known as ideal gas law,

PV =n RT

P is the pressure of the hydrogen gas = 1.7 atm
Vis the volume of the hydrogen gas = ?
n is the number of the hydrogen gas = 0.25 mole
R is the universal gas constant = 0.082 atm L/mole K
T is the temperature of the sample = 35°C = 35 + 273 = 308 K

By putting all the values of the given data like pressure temperature universal gas constant and number of moles in equation (i) we get ,

1.7 atm×V = 0.25 mole ×0.082 × 208 K

V = 0.25 mole ×0.082atm L /mole K × 308 K /1.7 atm

V = 3.71 L

So, volume of the sample of the hydrogen gas occupy is 3.71 L.

How many electrons do nonmetals atoms tend to gain when forming ions

amm1812

Since nonmetals have five, six, or seven electrons in their valence shells, it takes less energy to gain the necessary electrons, and therefore form anions.

50.0 mL solution of 0.160 M potassium alaninate ( H 2 NC 2 H 5 CO 2 K ) is titrated with 0.160 M HCl . The p K a values for the

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

a) 6.12

b) 1.87

Explanation:

At the onset of the equivalence point (i.e the first equivalence point); alaninate is being converted to alanine.

$H_2NC_2H_5CO^-_2$ $+$ $H^+$ ------> $H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2$

1 mole of alaninate react with 1 mole of acid to give 1 mole of alanine;

therefore 50.0 mL of 0.160 M alaninate required 50.0 mL of 0.160M HCl to reach the first equivalence point.

The concentration of alanine can be gotten via the following process as shown below;

$[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]$ = $\frac{initial moles of alaninate}{total volume}$

$[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]$ = $\frac{(50.0mL)*(0.160M)}{(50.0mL+50.0mL)}$

$[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]$ = $\frac{8}{100mL}$

$[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]$ = 0.08 M

Alanine serves as an intermediary form, however the concentration of $H^+$ and the pH can be determined as follows;

$[H^+]$ = $\sqrt{\frac{K_{a1}K_{a2}{[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]+K_{a1}K_w}{ K_{a1}{[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2] } }$

$[H^+]$ = $\sqrt{\frac{ (10^{-pK_{a1})}(10^{-pK_{a2})}(0.08)+(10^{-pK_{a1})}(1.0*10^{-14})} {(10^{-pK_{a1}})+(0.08)} }$

$[H^+]$ = $\sqrt{\frac{ (10^{-2.344})(10^{-9.868})(0.08)+(10^{-2.344})(1.0*10^{-14})} {(10^{-2.344})+(0.08)} }$

$[H^+]$ = $7.63*10^{-7}M$

pH = - log $[H^+]$

pH = $-log[7.63*10^{-7}]$

pH= 6.12

Therefore, the pH of the first equivalent point = 6.12

b) At the second equivalence point; all alaninate is converted into protonated alanine.

$H_2NC_2H_5CO^-_2$ $+$ $H^+$ -----> $H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2$

$H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2$ $+$ $H^+$ -----> $H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H$

Here; we have a situation where 1 mole of alaninate react with 2 moles of acid to give 1 mole of protonated alanine;

Moreover, 50.0 mL of 0.160 M alaninate is needed to produce 100.0mL of 0.160 M HCl in order to achieve the second equivalence point.

Thus, the concentration of protonated alanine can be determined as:

$[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]$ = $\frac{initial moles of alaninate}{total volume}$

$[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]$ = $\frac{(50.0mL)*(0.160M)}{(50.0mL+100.0mL)}$

$[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]$ = $\frac{8}{150}$

$[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]$ = 0.053 M

The pH at the second equivalence point can be calculated via the dissociation of protonated alanine at equilibrium which is represented as:

$H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H$ ⇄ $H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2$ $+$ $H^+$

(0.053 - x) x x

$K_{a1}$ = $\frac{[H^+] [H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2]}{[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]}$

$10^{-PK_{a1}}$ = $\frac{x*x}{(0.053-x)}$

$10^{-2.344} =\frac{x^2}{(0.053-x)}$

$0.00453 = \frac{x^2}{(0.053-x)}$

$0.00453(0.053-x) =x^2$

$x^2+0.00453x-(2.4009*10^{-4})$

Using quadratic equation formula;

$\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

we have:

$\frac{-0.00453+\sqrt{(0.00453)^2-4(1)(-2.4009*10^{-4})} }{2(1)}$ OR $\frac{-0.00453-\sqrt{(0.00453)^2-4(1)(-2.4009*10^{-4})} }{2(1)}$

= 0.0134 OR -0.0179

So; we go by the positive integer which says

x = 0.0134

So $[H^+]=[H_3^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]= 0.0134 M$

pH = $-log[H^+]$

pH = $-log[0.0134]$

pH = 1.87

Thus, the pH of the second equivalent point = 1.87
