Answer:

6.574 g NaF into 300ml (0.25M HF) => Bfr with pH ~3.5

Explanation:

For buffer solution to have a pH-value of 3.5 the hydronium ion concentration [H⁺] must be 3.16 x 10⁻⁴M ( => [H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10⁻³°⁵ =3.16 x 10⁻⁴M).

Addition of NaF to 300ml of 0.25M HF gives a buffer solution. To determine mass of NaF needed use common ion analysis for HF/NaF and calculate molarity of NaF, then moles in 300ml the x formula wt => mass needed for 3.5 pH.

HF ⇄ H⁺ + F⁻; Ka = 6.6 x 10⁻⁴

Ka = [H⁺][F⁻]/[HF] = 6.6 x 10⁻⁴ = (3.16 x 10⁻⁴)[F⁻]/0.25 => [F⁻] = (6.6 x 10⁻⁴)(0.25)/(3.16x10⁻⁴) = 5.218M in F⁻ needed ( = NaF needed).

For the 300ml buffer solution, moles of NaF needed = Molarity x Volume(L)

= (5.218M)(0.300L) = 0.157 mole NaF needed x 42 g/mole = 6.574 g NaF needed.

Check using the Henderson - Hasselbalch Equation...

pH = pKa + log ([Base]/[Acid]); pKa (HF) = 3.18

Molarity of NaF = (6.572g/42g/mole)/(0.300 L soln) = 0.572M in NaF = 0.572M in F⁻.

pH = 3.18 + log ([0.572]/[0.25]) ≅ 3.5.

One can also back calculate through the Henderson -Hasselbalch Equation to determine base concentration, moles NaF then grams NaF.

zvonat [6]
I found the rest of the exercise on the internet and these are the options.
"-Undifferentiated vertebrae throughout the body.
-One neck vertebra allowing up and down movement.
-Many neck vertebrae that allow for greater mobility.
<span>-Two neck vertebrae allowing up and down and sideways movement."

The correct answer would be the third. - "</span>Many neck vertebrae that allow for greater mobility." The <span>present-day organism with four limbs has a neck with several vertebrae that allow movements of rotation (mostly because of only two vertebrae at the top of the neck), and side way movements, as well as back and forth movements.</span>

A solution is made by adding 20 g table salt to 100 mL water. The solubility of salt is 36 g/100 mL water. Which term best descr
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

We say that the solution is unsaturated.

Explanation:

If the salt solubility is 36 g in 0.1 L of water then we can dissolve 360 g of salt in 1 L of water.

Because the solution contains 200 g of salt in 1 L of water, the solution is unsaturated because more salt can be added until we reach the saturation point.

We call the solution dilute when we compare the concentration of a solution with the concentration of another solution, but here we do not compare different solutions.
