<u>Answer:</u> The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

  • <u>For TRIS acid:</u>

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol

  • <u>For TRIS base:</u>

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L    (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

  • To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})

We are given:

pK_a = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}

[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

How is electromagnetic energy fromthe microwave transformed into heat energy
zysi [14]

Answer:


First, the microwaves transmit kinetic energy to the water molecules of the food, heating the water molecules. Only, those that are not very deep into the food.


Second, the hot water molecules transmit heat by conduction to the other parts of the food.


Explanation:


1) Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation. The same as any wave, they carry energy.


2) The wave length of microwaves are in the range of 0.001 mm to 1 m (shorter than radio waves and longer than infrared)


3) The microwaves of an oven, used to heat food, have a wave length aroun 12 cm.


4) The microwaves transmit energy to the water molecules in the food, by increasing the kinetic energy of water molecules. As result, the water molecules get hotter. Microwaves only penetrate about 1 cm inside the food (a potato for example) and from that the heat is transferred by conduction to the inner parts of the food.

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.

At the candy store, gourmet jelly beans sell for $1.15 per ounce. There are 28 students in Alfred's class. If each student eats
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Total cost = $40.25 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Per ounce = $1.15

Number of student = 28

Each student eat = 0.035 kg

Find:

Total cost

Computation:

Total weight of candy = 28 × 0.035 kg

Total weight of candy = 0.98 kg

1 ounce = 0.028 kg (approx).

Total weight of candy = 0.98 kg / 0.028

Total weight of candy = 35 ounce (Approx)

Total cost = 35 × $1.15

Total cost = $40.25 (Approx)
