Answer:

The pH value of the solution comes out to be 1.29. The pH value is obtained by using the following expression shown below

$\textrm{pH} = -\textrm{log}\left [ H_{3}O^{+} \right ]$

Explanation:

Given concentration of hydronium ion = $\left [ H_{3}O \right ]^{+}$ = 0.051 M

The formula for finding the pH value is shown below

$\textrm{pH} = -\textrm{log}\left [ H_{3}O^{+} \right ] \\\textrm{pH} = -\textrm{log}\left ( 0.051 \textrm{ M} \right ) \\\textrm{pH} = 1.29$

Hence, the pH value of solution of HCl is 1.29

Find the grams in 1.26 x 10^-4 mole of HC2 H3O2

ivolga24 [154]

Molar mass :

HC₂H₃O₂ = 1 + 12*2 + 1 * 3 + 16 * 2 = 60 g/mol

1 mole <span>HC₂H₃O₂ -------------- 60 g
</span>1.26x10-⁴ mole ----------------- mass

mass = 1.26x10-⁴ * 60

mass = 0.00756 g of <span>HC₂H₃O₂</span>

hope this helps!

Write a mechanism for the esterification of propanoic acid with 18O-labeled ethanol. Show clearly the fate of the 18O label. (b)

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

See explanation and images attached

Explanation:

a) In the mechanism for the acid catalysed esterification of propanoic acid using ethanol, we can see that the first step is the protonation of the acid followed by nucleophillic attack of the alcohol. Loss of water and consequent deprotonation regenerates the acid catalyst. We can see the fate of the 18O labelled ethanol in the mechanism shown.

b) In the second mechanism, an unnamed ester is hydrolysed using an acid catalyst. The attack of the acid and subsequent nucleophillic attack of water labelled with 18O leads to the incorporation of this 18O into the product acid as shown in the mechanism attached to this answer.
