3 0

B:Oxygen and silicon

Explanation:

Most minerals on the earth's surface contains oxygen and silicon. Silicon and oxygen are the most abundant elements we find in the rock minerals on the earth surface.

  • Silicon and oxygen forms the SiO₄⁻ tetrahedron through which several minerals are formed.
  • These minerals built on the network of the tetrahedron are referred to as silicates.
  • Several silicate minerals are known:
  1. Quartz
  2. Feldspars
  3. Olivine
  4. Biotite
  5. Pyroxene

A 200.0 mL solution of 0.40 M ammonium chloride was titrated with 0.80 M sodium hydroxide. What was the pH of the solution after
choli [55]

Answer:

9.25

Explanation:

Let first find the moles of NH_4Cl and NaOH

number of moles of NH_4Cl = 0.40  mol/L × 200 ×  10⁻³L

= 0.08 mole

number of moles of NaOH = 0.80  mol/L × 50 ×  10⁻³L

= 0.04 mole

The equation for the reaction is expressed as:

NH^+_{4(aq)} \ + OH^-_{(aq)} ------> NH_{3(g)} \ + H_2O_{(l)}

The ICE Table is shown below as follows:

                            NH^+_{4(aq)} \ + OH^-_{(aq)} ------> NH_{3(g)} \ + H_2O_{(l)}

Initial (M)              0.08            0.04                            0

Change (M)         - 0.04          -0.04                          + 0.04

Equilibrium (M)      0.04             0                                0.04

K_a*K_b = 10^{-14} \ at \ 25^0C

K_a = \frac{10^{-14}}{K_b}

K_a = \frac{10^{-14}}{1.76*10^{-5}}

K_a= 5.68*10^{10}

pK_a = - log \ (K_a)

pK_a = - log \ (5.68*10^{-10})

pK_a = 9.25

pH = pKa + \ log (\frac{HB}{HA} )   for buffer solutions

pH = pKa + \ log (\frac{moles \ of \ base }{ moles\ of \ acid} ) since they are in the same solution

pH = 9.25 + \ log (\frac{0.04 }{ 0.04} )

pH = 9.25
