You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 5.31. You already have a solution that contains 10. mmol (millimoles) of

acetic acid. How many millimoles of acetate (the conjugate base of acetic acid) will you need to add to this solution? The pKa of acetic acid is 4.74.

Answer:

37 mmol of acetate need to add to this solution.

Explanation:

Acetic acid is an weak acid. According to Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a buffer consist of weak acid (acetic acid) and its conjugate base (acetate)-

pH=pK_{a}(acetic acid)+log[\frac{mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-}}{mmol of CH_{3}COOH }]

Here pH is 5.31, pK_{a} (acetic acid) is 4.74 and number of mmol of acetic acid is 10 mmol.

Plug in all the values in the above equation:

5.31=4.74+log[\frac{mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-}}{10}]

or, mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-} = 37

So 37 mmol of acetate need to add to this solution.

Calculate the theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane; base your calculations on using 1.0 g of 1-butanol (as the limiting reagent).
Tomtit [17]

C₄H₉OH + HBr = C₄H₉Br + H2O

Δmole of alcohol gives 1 mole of bromobutanol

HBr is in excess, so the yield of the product is limited by the alcohol

Wt. of 1 butanol = 18

Molar mass of the butanol = 74.12 g/mole

Moles of the alcohol = 1/74.12 = 0.01349 moles

So, moles of bromobutane = 0.01349 moles

Molar mass of C₄H₉Br = 137.018 g/moles

So, theoretical mass of bromobutane is = 0.01349 × 137.0.18

= 1.85 g
