You’re probably familiar with the sour taste of acidic lemon juice and the slippery feel of alkaline (basic) soap. In fact, thes

e characteristics were used to identify acids from bases long ago. Today, we understand much more about acidity and alkalinity, far beyond taste and feel. Acids are most simply defined as proton donors. They have a ph of below 7. They are substances that react with water to produce H3O+ (hydronium) ions (after all, H2O + one proton → H3O+ ). When you add an acid to water the water acts as a base, accepting protons from the acid. Bases are most simply defined as proton acceptors. They have a ph of above 7. They react with water to produce OH- (hydroxide) ions (H2O - one proton → OH-). When you add a base to water the water acts as an acid, donating protons to the base.1. Citric acid H3C6H5O7 is the substance that gives lemon juice and other citrus fruit juices a sour taste. How many grams of citric acid are present in 125mL of a 0.400M citric acid solution?

Answer:

9.606 grams of citric acid are present in 125 mL of a 0.400 M citric acid solution.

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of solution.  Mathematically written as:

Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{volume of solution in L}}

Moles of citric acid  = n

Volume of the citric acid  solution = 125 mL  =125 × 0.001 L= 0.125 L

(1 mL = 0.001L)

Molarity of the citric acid  solution = 0.400 M

0.400 M=\frac{n}{0.12 5L}

n  = 0.400 M × 0.125 L = 0.05 moles

Mass of 0.05 moles of citric acid :

0.05 mol\times 192.12 g/mol=9.606 g

9.606 grams of citric acid are present in 125 mL of a 0.400 M citric acid solution.

Alja [10]

Answer:

Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.

In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.

The overall balanced equation would be,

Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 +  P(CH3)3

A buffer is composed of nh3 and nh4cl. How would this buffer solution control the ph of a solution when a small amount of a stro
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

According to Le-chatelier principle, equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of OH^{-} and keep same equilibrium constant

Explanation:

In this buffer following equilibrium exists -

NH_{3}(aq.)+H_{2}O(l)\rightleftharpoons NH_{4}^{+}(aq.)+OH^{-}(aq.)

So, OH^{-} is involved in the above equilibrium.

When a strong base is added to this buffer, then concentration of OH^{-} increases. Hence, according to Le-chatelier principle, above equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of OH^{-} and keep same equilibrium constant.

Therefore excess amount of OH^{-} combines with NH_{4}^{+} to produce ammonia and water. So, effect of addition of strong base on pH of buffer gets minimized.
