Should existing structures build from CCA-treated wood be removed?

Arturiano [62]

There are pros and cons as to whether CCA-treated (pressure-treated) wood should be removed from existing structures, and both sides are subjective. Some of the arguments for leaving it include: *When burned, the wood can release dangerous, and sometimes, lethal fumes. *If buried in a landfill, the chemicals can soak into the ground and eventually contaminate ground water. *Removing it can expose people to arsenic *It is costly to remove an existing infrastructure that may or may not be harming people *Studies conducted within the past decade have determined structures containing CCA-treated wood pose no hazard *Studies also concluded that children who played on CCA-treated playgrounds were exposed to arsenic levels lower than those that naturally occur in drinking water Some of the arguments for removing it include: *The EPA determined that some children could face higher cancer risks from exposure to CCA-treated wood *If removed, it will need to be disposed of and, as discussed above, that creates another set of problems that could affect a community's health. A possible solution is to leave existing CCA-treated wood in place but seek viable, safe alternatives for future structures.

How many milliliters of 0.500 M NaOH should be added to 10.0 g of tris hydrochloride (FM 121.135) to give a pH of 7.60 in a fina

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

41.64mL of NaOH 0.500M must be added to obtain the desire pH

Explanation:

It is possible to find pH of a buffer by using H-H equation, thus:

pH = pka + log [A⁻] / [HA]

Where [HA] is concentration of the weak acid TRIS-HCl and [A⁻] is concentration of its conjugate acid.

Replacing in H-H equation:

7.60 = 8.072 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

0.3373 = [A⁻] / [HA] (1)

10.0g of TRIS-HCl (Molar mass: 121.135g/mol) are:

10.0g ₓ (1mol / 121.135g) = 0.08255 moles of acid. That means moles of both the acid and conjugate base are:

[A⁻] + [HA] = 0.08255 (2)

Replacing (1) in (2):

0.3373 = 0.08255 - [HA] / [HA]

0.3373[HA] = 0.08255 - [HA]

1.3373[HA] = 0.08255

[HA] = 0.06173 moles

Thus:

[A⁻] = 0.08255 - 0.06173 = 0.02082 moles [A⁻]

The moles of A⁻ comes from the reaction of the weak acid with NaOH, that is:

HA + NaOH → A⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

Thus, you need to add 0.02082 moles of NaOH to produce 0.02082 moles of A⁻. As NaOH solution is 0.500M:

0.02082 moles NaOH ₓ (1L / 0.500mol) = 0.04164L of NaOH 0.500M =
