What mass of sodium benzoate should be added to 150.0 ml of a 0.15 m benzoic acid solution in order to obtain a buffer with a ph

of 4.25? (assume no volume change.)?

When we know the Pka value = 4.19 

so, we are going to use H-H equation:

PH = Pka + ㏒[benzoate/benzoic acid]

when we have PH = 4.25 

and Pka = 4.19 

so by substitution:

4.25 = 4.19 + ㏒[benzaoate/ benzoic acid]

∴ [benzaoate/benzoic acid] = 1.148 M

when the [benzoic acid ] = 0.15 m 

∴ [benzaoate] = 1.148M * 0.15m 

                        = 0.1722 M

∴ moles of sodium benzoate = molarity * volume L

                                                 = 0.1722 M * 0.15 L 

                                                 = 0.02583 moles

∴ the mass = moles * molar mass

                   = 0.02583 moles* 144 g/mol

                   = 3.72 g

Find the amount in grams of 2.0 x 10^23 atoms Cu
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

21.182 g

Explanation:

There are about (6.0)(10^23) atoms in one mole of a substance, so the given sample has about 0.333 mol of Cu.

The atomic mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol, meaning that the answer is about <u>21.182</u><u> </u><u>g</u>

Explanation:

  • This is due, for example, to the fact that when the Earth is closer to the Sun in its elliptical orbit it orbits faster, while when it is further away it orbits slower, averaging to a value equivalent to that of a circular orbit.
  • Earth has seasons because our planet's axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees relative to our orbital plane – the plane of Earth's orbit around the sun.
  • While the Earth spins through space it stays almost up right on its axis, although as it spins through space it gives us seasons. One hemisphere, when faced directly to the sun has Summer, meanwhile the other the has Winter. Later on the hemispheres have Autumn and Spring.
