T = 14400 s
26.5 x 14400=381600 C
381600/96500=3.95 Faradays
Cu2+ + 2e- = Cu
3.95 faradays ( 1 mol/ 2 Faradays) = 1.97
mass = 1.97 x 63.55 g/mol=125 g
moles Au = 33.1 / 196.967 g/mol=0.168
Au+ + 1e- = Au
0.168 ( 1 Faraday/ 1mol)= 0.168 Faraday
0.168 x 96500=16217 Coulombs
16217 / 5.00=3243 s => 54 min
An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg of sodium phenate. What is the ph of the solution. The pka of phenol = 9.98. Mw of phenol and sodium phenate are 94 g/mol and 116 g/mol, respectively.
Volume of solution = 55 gallons = 208.2 L [ 1 gallon = 3.78 L]
moles of phenol = mass / molar mass = 4000 g / 94 = 42.55 moles
moles of sodium phenate = mass / molar mass = 1500 / 116 = 12.93 moles
pKa of phenol = 9.98
We know that the pH of buffer is calculated using Hendersen Hassalbalch's equation
pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]
volume is same for both the sodium phenate and phenol has we can directly take the moles of each in the formula
pH = 9.98 + log [12.93 / 42.55] = 9.46
