Answer:

pH = 5.24

Explanation:

Mixture of acetic acid with acetate ion is a buffer (Mixture of a weak acid with its conjugate base). The pH of a buffer can be determined using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where pKa is -log Ka = 4.74; [A⁻] is the concentration of conjugate base (Acetate ion) and [HA] is molar concentration of the weak acid.</em>

Concentration of the acetic acid in the 100mL≡0.1L (76mL + 24mL) solution is:

[HA] = 0.024L ₓ (1mol / L) / 0.1L = 0.24M

[A⁻] = 0.076L ₓ (1mol / L) / 0.1L = 0.76M

Replacing in H-H equation:

pH = 4.74 + log₁₀ [0.76M] / [0.24M]

<h3>pH = 5.24</h3>

A buffer is prepared by adding 300. 0 ml of 2. 0 mnaoh to 500. 0 ml of 2. 0 mch3cooh. what is the ph of this buffer? ka= 1. 8 10
Anton [14]

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation can be used to determine the pH of the buffer from the pKa value. The pH of the buffer will be 4.75.

<h3>What is the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation?</h3>

Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is used to determine the value of pH of the buffer with the help of the acid disassociation constant.

Given,

Acid disassociation constant (ka) = 1. 8 10⁻⁵

Concentration of NaOH = 2.0 M

Concentration of CH₃COOH = 2.0 M

pKa value is calculated as,

pKa = -log Ka

pKa = - log (1. 8 x 10⁻⁵)

Substituting the value of pKa in the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation as

pH = - log (1. 8 x 10⁻⁵) + log [2.0] ÷ [2.0]

pH = - log (1. 8 x 10⁻⁵) + log [1]

= 4.745 + 0

= 4.75

Therefore, 4.75 is the pH of the buffer.

What amount (moles) is represented by each of these samples?
Zinaida [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                  a)  Moles of Caffeine  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

                  b) Moles of Ethanol   =  4.5 × 10⁻³ mol

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Data Given:

                  Mass of Caffeine  =  20 mg  =  0.02 g

                  M.Mass of Caffeine  =  194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                  Molecules of Ethanol  =  2.72 × 10²¹

Calculate Moles of Caffeine as,

                               Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Putting values,

                               Moles  =  0.02 g ÷ 194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                                Moles  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Calculate Moles of Ethanol as,

                                                         As we know one mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ particles (atoms, ions, molecules or formula units). This number is also called as Avogadro's Number.

The relation between Moles, Number of Particles and Avogadro's Number is given as,

                          Number of Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

Putting values,

                          Number of Moles  =  2.72 × 10²¹ Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

                          Number of Moles  =  4.5 × 10⁻³ Moles
