500.0 ml of 0.110 m naoh is added to 535 ml of 0.250 m weak acid (ka = 6.37 × 10-5. what is the ph of the resulting buffer?

1 answer:

7 0

The main formulas are pH=pKa + log(Base/Acid) and pKa = -log(Ka)
so firstly, we must find the value of pKa,
Ka=6.37 x 10 ^-5, and then logKa= log (6.37 . 10^-5)= -9.66, so -logKa= +9.66=Ka
next let's find log(Base/Acid)
for that the concentration of NaOH is [NaOH] = 500.0 x 0.110 / 500+535 =0.053M, the concentration of the Acid is [Acid] =535*0.25 / 500+535 =0.12M, so its difference is [Acid]-[NaOH] = 0.12-0.053=0.07
so pH=pKa + log(Base/Acid)= 9.66 + log(0.053 / 0.07)= 9.66-0.36=9.29 
so pH=9.29.

If 45.0 mL of ethanol (density =0.789g/mol) initially at 6.0°C mix with 45.0 mL of water (density =1.0 g/mol) initially at 28.0°

Likurg_2 [28]

The final temperature of the mixture : 21.1° C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received / absorbed is the same as the heat released

Q in(gained) = Q out(lost)

Heat can be calculated using the formula:

Q = mc∆T

Q = heat, J

m = mass, g

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K

Q ethanol=Q water

mass ethanol=

$\tt mass=\rho\times V\\\\mass=0.789\times 45=35.505~g$

mass water =

$\tt mass=1~g/ml\times 45~ml=45~g$

then the heat transfer :

$\tt 35.505\times 2.42~J/g^oC\times (t-6)=45\times 4.18~J/g^oC\times (28-t)\\\\85.922t-515.533=5266.8-188.1t\\\\274.022t=5782.33\rightarrow t=21.1^oC$

Analyze: The metallic character of an element is determined by how readily it loses electrons. Elements that lose electrons most

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Group 1 or akali metals have the greatest metallic property.

Group 17 has the lowest metallic character.

C. As you move from right to lefton the periodic table, metallic character increases which is the ability to lose electrons. Ionization energy decrease as we move from right to left on the periodic table.

Explanation:

Akali metals in group 1 have the greatest metallic property and they are the most reactive metals. Francium metal on the group has the most metallic characteristics. It is rare and very radioactive. Group 17 has the lowest metallic character. This is because while moving across the period, the number of electrons in the outermost shell increases. This make it difficult for atoms to leave see electrons and become electropositive . Group 17 has the highest tendency of accepting electrons.

Ionization energy is the energy use to remove electron from an atom in gaseous stage. Ionization energy decrease as we move from right to left on the periodic table and metallic character increases as we move from right to left on the periodic table.
