What concentration of monosodium phosphate would be required to make a solution of pH 7.4 with 0.2 M disodium phosphate ( pKa

Chemistry

Answer:

The concentration of monosodium phosphate is 0.1262M

Explanation:

The buffer of H₂PO₄⁻ / HPO₄²⁻ (Monobasic phosphate and dibasic phosphate has a pKa of 7.2

To determine the pH you must use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] is molarity of the conjugate base of the weak acid, [HA].</em>

For H₂PO₄⁻ / HPO₄⁻ buffer:

pH = 7.2 + log [HPO₄⁻² ] / [H₂PO₄⁻]

As molarity of the dibasic phosphate is 0.2M and you want a pH of 7.4:

7.4 = 7.2 + log [0.2] / [H₂PO₄⁻]

0.2 = log [0.2] / [H₂PO₄⁻]

1.58489 = [0.2] / [H₂PO₄⁻]

[H₂PO₄⁻] = 0.1262M

<h3>The concentration of monosodium phosphate is 0.1262M</h3>

What is the pH of a 3.40 mM of acetic acid, 500 mL in which 50 mL of 1.00 M NaOAc has been added? Ka HOAc is 1.8 x 10-5? What pe
Deffense [45]

Answer:

a) pH = 4.213

b) % dis = 2 %

Explanation:

Ch3COONa → CH3COO- + Na+

CH3COOH ↔ CH3COO- + H3O+

∴ Ka = 1.8 E-5 = ([ CH3COO- ] * [ H3O+ ]) / [ CH3COOH ]

mass balance:

⇒ <em>C</em> CH3COOH + <em>C</em> CH3COONa = [ CH3COOH ] + [ CH3COO- ]

<em>∴ C </em>CH3COOH = 3.40 mM = 3.4 mmol/mL * ( mol/1000mmol)*(1000mL/L)

∴ <em>C</em> CH3COONa = 1.00 M = 1.00 mol/L = 1.00 mmol/mL

⇒ [ CH3COOH ] = 4.4 - [ CH3COO- ]

charge balance:

⇒ [ H3O+ ] + [ Na+ ] = [ CH3COO- ] + [ OH- ]....is negligible [ OH-], comes from water

⇒ [ CH3COO- ] = [ H3O+ ] + 1.00

⇒ Ka = (( [ H3O+ ] + 1 )* [ H3O+ ]) / ( 3.4 - [ H3O+])) = 1.8 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + [ H3O+ ] = 6.12 E-5 - 1.8 E-5 [ H3O+ ]

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + [ H3O+ ] - 6.12 E-5 = 0

⇒  [ H3O+ ] = 6.12 E-5 M

⇒ pH = - Log [ H3O+ ] = 4.213

b) (% dis)* mol acid = <em>C</em> CH3COOH = 3.4

∴ mol CH3COOH = 500*3.4 = 1700 mmol = 1.7 mol

⇒ % dis = 3.4 / 1.7 = 2 %

mash [69]
I believe the correct answer would be that b<span>oiling points and melting points are similar because they both involve the change in a state of a material, but they are different because boiling point involves a change from a liquid to a gas and melting point involves a change from a solid to a liquid. Boiling and melting are phase changes that can happen to a substance however they differ in the process that happens.</span>
