If you have 120. mL of a 0.100 M TES buffer at pH 7.55 and you add 3.00 mL of 1.00 M HCl, what will be the new pH? (The pKa of T

ES is 7.55.)

Answer:

The new pH after adding HCl is 7.07

Explanation:

The formula for calculating pH of a buffer is

pH = pKa + log([Conjugate base]/[Acid])

<u>Before adding HCl,</u>

         7.55 = 7.55 + log([Conjugate base]/[Acid])

⇔      log([Conjugate base]/[Acid])  = 0

⇔     [Conjugate base] = [Acid] = 1/2 x 0.100 = 0.05 M

⇒ Mole of Conjugate base = Mole of Acid = 0.05 M x 0.12 mL = 0.006 mol

<u>After adding HCl (3.00 mL, 1.00 M)</u>

⇒ Mole of HCl = 0.003 x 1 = 0.003 mol)

New volume solution is 120 m L+ 3 mL = 123 mL

HCl is a strong acid, it will convert the conjugate base to acid form, or we can express

Mole of new Conjugate base = 0.006 - 0.003 = 0.003 mol

                ⇒ Concentration = 0.003/0.123 M

Mole of new Acid form = 0.006 + 0.003 = 0.009 mol

                ⇒ Concentration = 0.009/0.123 M

Use the formula

pH = pKa + log([Conjugate base]/[Acid])

    = 7.55 + log(0.003 / 0.009) = 7.07

When PCl5 solidifies it forms PCl4+ cations and PCl6– anions. According to valence bond theory, what hybrid orbitals are used by
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

sp³

Explanation:

Number of hybrid orbitals = ( V + S - C + A ) / 2

Where

H is the number of hybrid orbitals

V is the valence electrons of the central atom = 5

S is the number of single valency atoms = 4

C is the number of cations = 1

A is the number of anions = 0

For PCl₄⁺

Applying the values, we get:

H = ( 5+4-1+0) / 2

= 4

<u>This corresponds to sp³ hybridization.</u>

Rank the ions in order of increasing basicity: CH3NH-, CH3CH2-, CH30-
Alexxx [7]

In order to find out the ranking of ions basicity, check the pKa values of each ions. The principle that you need to remember is that the stronger the acid the weaker the corresponding conjugate base. The pKa dictates acid value of the compound. The answer would be CH3NH, CH3O-, and CH3CH2-.
