Answer:The radiation dose absorbed by a person (that is, the amount of energy deposited in human tissue by radiation) is measured using the conventional unit rad or the SI unit gray (Gy). The biological risk of exposure to radiation is measured using the conventional unit rem or the SI unit sievert (Sv).

Formic acid (HCO2H) has a dissociation constant of 1.8 x 10^-4 M. The acid dissociates 1:1. What is the [H+] if 0.35 mole of for
Tju [1.3M]
Initial [ HCO2H] = moles * volume 
                           =0.35 moles * 1 L = 0.35 M

by using ICE table:

              HCO2H ↔ H+  + HCO2-
initial      0.35 M        0          0
change  - X             +X          +X
Equ       (0.35 - X)       X          X

∴ Ka = [H+][HCO2-] / [HCO2H]

by substitution:

1.8 x 10^-4 =  X^2 / (0.35-X) by solving for X

∴ X = 0.0079 or 7.9 x 10^-3

∴ [H+] = X = 7.9 x 10^-3 M

What is the pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pKa = 6.86) that contains equal amounts of acid and conjugate base?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer : The pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86

Explanation : Given,

pK_a=6.86

Concentration of acid = 0.1 M

Concentration of conjugate base (salt) = 0.1 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=6.86+\log (\frac{0.1}{0.1})

pH=6.86

Therefore, the pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86
