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

Answer:

When substances do not mix thoroughly and evenly (like sand and gravel), the mixture is said to be heterogeneous. A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances. Another example of a mixture is salt dissolved in water.

Determine the concentration of a solution made by dissolving 44.0 g of calcium chloride (CaCl2) in 0.30 L of solution. SHOW YOUR
ycow [4]

Answer:

[CaCl₂] = 1.32 M

Explanation:

We know the volume of solution → 0.30 L

We know the mass of solute → 44 g of CaCl₂

Let's convert the mass of solute to moles.

44 g . 1 mol / 110.98 g = 0.396 moles

Molarity (mol/L) → 0.396 mol / 0.3 L  = 1.32 M

A container with 3.0 moles of gas has a volume of 60.0L with a temperature at 400.K what is the pressure
iris [78.8K]

Answer: P= 1.64 atm

Explanation: solution attached.

Use Ideal gas law

PV= nRT

Derive for P

P= nRT/V R= 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K

Substitute the values.

Use the periodic table to answer this question. Decomposing calcium carbonate yields calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. What info
erik [133]
This may help you

First write and balance the equation, being: CaCO3 - CaO + CO2 Then, using the periodic table, find the molecular masses of CaCO3 and of CaO, finding their ratio. That will be 100g:56g or 0.1kg:0.056kg. Since you have 4.7kg of CaCO3, it corresponds to Xkg of CaO. Making x the subject, it should be X= 4.7*0.056/100=0,002632
