Answer:

a. 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. pH = 2.83

Explanation:

a. Based in the chemical equation:

C₆H₅NH₂(aq) + HCl(aq) → C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

<em>1 mole of aniline reacts per mole of HCl</em>

Moles required to reach equivalence point are:

Moles HCl = 0.02567L ₓ (0.175mol / L) = 4.492x10⁻³ moles HCl = moles C₆H₅NH₂

As the original solution had a volume of 25.0mL = 0.0250L:

4.492x10⁻³ moles C₆H₅NH₂ / 0.0250L = 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. At equivalence point, moles of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ are equal to initial moles of C₆H₅NH₂, that is 4.492x10⁻³ moles

But now, volume is 25.0mL + 25.67mL = 50.67mL = 0.05067L. Thus, molar concentration of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ is:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 4.492x10⁻³ moles / 0.05067L = 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. At equivalence point you have just 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺ in solution. C₆H₅NH₃⁺ has as equilibrium in water:

C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) → C₆H₅NH₂ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 4.0x10⁻¹⁰ =

<em>2.5x10⁻⁵ = [C₆H₅NH₂] [H₃O⁺] / [C₆H₅NH₃⁺]</em>

When the system reaches equilibrium, molar concentrations are:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 0.0887M - X

[C₆H₅NH₂] = X

[H₃O⁺] = X

Replacing in Ka formula:

2.5x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.0887M - X]

2.2175x10⁻⁶ - 2.5x10⁻⁵X = X²

0 = X² + 2.5x10⁻⁵X - 2.2175x10⁻⁶

Solving for X:

X = -0.0015 → False solution. There is no negative concentrations.

X = 0.001477 → Right solution.

As [H₃O⁺] = X, [H₃O⁺] = 0.001477

Knowing pH = -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log 0.001477

<h3>pH = 2.83</h3>

How many moles are in 48.0g of H2O2?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

1.41 moles H2O2(with sig figs)

Explanation:

okay so what is the molar mass of H2O2= (1.008 g/mol)2+(16.00g/mol)2= (2.016+ 32.00) g/ mol

= 34. 02 g/mol

48.0g H2O2* 1 mol H2O2/ 34.02 g H2O2= 1.41 mol H2O2

olchik [2.2K]
It is called Mass.

Among the physical characteristics of a matter which includes Weight, Mass, Volume, and Density the only characteristic that does not change is the mass. The mass of an object never change from place to place. All the objects have a mass and that is why there is a weight but it changes depends on the gravity. Mass don't.
