Answer: 6.58g

Explanation: We are to find the mass of NaCl that can produce 15% solution in a 750ml

STEP 1:

the reaction moles

NaCl + H2O = NaOH + HCl

Therefore 1mole of NaCl reacts with 1mole of H2O

STEP 2:

convert 750ml to liter

750ml × 1L/1000ml = 0.750L

STEP3 :

convert percentage concentration to mol/L

15% = 0.15mol/L

STEP 4:

find the mole

Mole= concentration× volume

0.15mol/L × 0.75L =0.1125mol

STEP 5 :

Find the mass

Mass = mole × molar mass

The molecular mass of NaCl is 23+35.5= 58.5g/mol

Therefore:

0.1125mol × 58.5g/mol = 6.58g

Approximately: 6.6g

A phosphate buffer is involved in the formation of urine. The developing urine contains H2PO4 and HPO42- in the same concentrati

Katen [24]

Answer:

The ionization equation is

$H_{2}PO_{4}^{-} +H_{2}O$ ⇄ $HPO_{4}^{-2} +H_{3}O^{+}$ (1)

Explanation:

The ionization equation is

$H_{2}PO_{4}^{-} +H_{2}O$ ⇄ $HPO_{4}^{-2} +H_{3}O^{+}$ (1)

As the Bronsted definition sais, an acid is a substance with the ability to give protons thus, H2PO4 is the acid and HPO42- is the conjugate base.

The Ka expression is the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants of the equilibrium reaction so,

$Ka = \frac{[HPO_{4}^{-2}] [H_{3}O^{+}]}{[H_{2}PO_{4}^{-}] [H_{2}O]} = 6.2x10^{-8}$

The pKa is

$-Log (Ka) = -Log (6.2x10^{-8}) = 7.2$

The pKa of H2CO3 is 6,35, thus this a stronger acid than H2PO4. The higher the pKa of an acid greater the capacity to donate protons.

In the body H2CO3 is a more optimal buffer for regulating pH due to the combination of the two acid-base equilibriums and the two pKa.

If the urine is acidified, according to Le Chatlier's Principle the equilibrium (1) moves to the left neutralizing the excess proton concentration.

eduard

Answer:

Explanation:

The noble gases are said to be inert because they undergo very few chemical reactions. They enjoy their status by having completely filled electron shells and do not have any reason whatsoever to go into chemical reactions. Most elements otherwise go into chemical reactions principally to enjoy the stability of these elements.

Noble gases can be found in the last group of the periodic table.
