What weight of sodium formate must be added to 4.00L of 1.00 M formic acid to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 3.50?

Chemistry

Answer:

156,4 g of sodium formate

Explanation:

The pka of the formic acid is 3,74. Using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

Where A⁻ is the conjugate base (Formate) and HA is the formic acid.

4.00L of 1.00M formic acid contain:

4.00L × (1.00mol /L) = 4.00 moles

Replacing these moles, the desired pH and the pka value in (1):

3,50 = 3,74  log₁₀ [A⁻] / 4,00 moles

-0,24 =  log₁₀ [A⁻] / 4,00 moles

0,575 = [A⁻] / 4,00 moles

<em>2,30 moles = [A⁻] </em>

That means you need 2,30 moles of formate (Sodium formate), to produce the desired buffer. As the molar mass of sodium formate is 68,01g/mol, the weight of sodium formate that must be added is:

2,30mol×(68,01g/mol) =<em> 156,4 g of sodium formate</em>.

I hope it helps!

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o
meriva

Answer:

\boxed{-267.5}

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}

The equation for the reaction is

                        C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹   219.5      205.0         213.6         69.9

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}

The muscles on the run in transform chemical potential energy into_____
LekaFEV [45]

Mechanical Energy

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

Explanation:

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

In the muscles, to have movement, the chemical bonds in ATP is broken to enable the sliding action of the myosin and actin fibres of a sarcomere (the basic unit of muscle). This sliding action is responsible for contraction of muscle.  The coordinated contractions and relaxations of sarcomeres on muscles result in movement which translates to mechanical energy.

This process is never 100% efficient with some energy lost as heat energy.

Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizing agent; it is used in concentrated solution in rocket fuel and in dilute solution in ha
Anestetic [448]

The molarity of the hydrogen peroxide solution from the information supplied in the question is 12.26 M.

Co = 10pd/M

Where;

Co = concentration = ?

p = percent of the hydrogen peroxide =  30%

d = Density of hydrogen peroxide =  1.39 g/ml

M = Molar mass  = 34 g/mol

Substituting values;

Co = 10 × 30 ×  1.39/34

Co = 12.26 M

The molarity of the hydrogen peroxide solution from the information supplied in the question is 12.26 M.
