If a buffer solution is 0.250 M 0.250 M in a weak base ( K b = 8.0 × 10 − 5 ) Kb=8.0×10−5) and 0.540 M 0.540 M in its conjugate

acid, what is the pH ?

Answer:

9.57

Explanation:

Given that:

pK_{b}=-\log\ K_{b}=-\log(8.0\times 10^{-5})=4.1

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pOH of the basic buffer solution as:

pOH=pK_b+log\frac{[conjugate\ acid]}{[base]}

So,  

pOH=4.1+\log\frac{0.540}{0.250}=4.43

pH + pOH = 14  

So, pH = 14 - 4.43 = 9.57

Use the reaction 2NO 2 (g) = N 2 O 4 (g) to answer the following question:
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

According to Le Chatelier’s Principle, a stress placed on a system at equilibrium will cause the equilibrium to shift to counteract the stress.  For example, a temperature increase in the above reaction will favor the reverse reaction to use the excess heat and form brown NO2 gas.  A temperature decrease in the above reaction favors the forward reaction to produce heat and form colorless N2O4 gas.

Allisa [31]
<span>Each mole contains Avagodro's number of atoms i.e. 6.023x10^23, so

3 moles x 6.023x10^23 atoms/mole = 18.069x10^23 atoms = 1.8x19^24 atoms </span>
