Answer:

The pH is 7.54

Explanation:

The Henderson - Hasselbalch equation states that for a buffer solution which consists of a weak acid and its conjugate base, the buffer pH is given by:

pH =pk_{a} +log(\frac{[conjugate base]}{[weakacid]})

pkₐ is for the acid

In this case, the buffer hypochlorous acid  HClO is a weak acid, and its conjugate base is the hypochlorite anion ClO⁻  is delivered to the solution via sodium hypochlorite NaClO .

NaCIO = 0.200 M

HCIO = 0.200 M

pkₐ = -log₁₀ kₐ = -log₁₀ (2.9 × 10⁻⁸) = 7.54

∴pH = =7.54 +log\frac{0.2}{0.2} = 7.54

The universe comes into existence is first
The first neutral atoms form is second
The universe begins expanding is third
Gases form that will later go to shape stars and galaxies is fourth
Atomic nuclei form is last

I'm almost certain that is correct. Do not take my word for this.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.297 mol/L

Explanation:

<em>A chemist prepares a solution of potassium dichromate by measuring out 13.1 g of potassium dichromate into a 150 mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mol/L of the chemist's potassium dichromate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

Step 1: Calculate the moles corresponding to 13.1 g of potassium dichromate

The molar mass of potassium dichromate is 294.19 g/mol.

13.1 g × (1 mol/294.19 g) = 0.0445 mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to L

We will use the relationship 1 L = 1000 mL.

150 mL × (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.150 L

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the solution in mol/L

C = 0.0445 mol/0.150 L = 0.297 mol/L
