Explanation: A buffer is made btw a weak acid and it salt. In a solution made by dissolving a weak acid in solution, equilibrium is set up btw ionised and unionised ion. For Benzoic acid
C6H5COOH....> C6H5COO- + H+
Ka = [C6H5COO-] [H+]/ [C6H5COOH].......(1)
using Ka = 6.5× 10^-5, [C6H5COOH] = 0.02M. PH= - log[H+] ....> [H+]= 10^-4M.
Putting the values in(1)
[C6H5COO-]= 6.5× 10^-5 × 0.02/ 10^-4
[C6H5COO-] = 0.013M = Molarity of sodium benzoate
Mole(C6H5COONa) = 0.013 × Volume = 0.013mol/litre × 1.5 litre
Mole(C6H5COONa) = 0.0195mol
Mass(C6H5COONa) = 0.0195 × Molar mass
Mass(C6H5COONa) = 2.8275g
If a hypothesis is stated and outcome of the experiment is what was predicted, then it supports the hypothesis. if the experiment does not support the hypothesis, then the outcome was not what was predicted.
Answer: Patrick was so sure he was a thief because why would you knock if it was your own room you would open the door. And he didn’t have a key to open the door.
