Answer:

0.804g of NaHCO₃ you must add

Explanation:

pKa of HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻ is 10.32.

It is possible to find pH of a buffer by using H-H equation, thus:

pH = pka + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [HA] is concentration of acid (HCO₃⁻) and [A⁻] is concentration of conjugate acid (CO₃²⁻).</em>

Moles of CO₃²⁻ = K₂CO₃ are:

4.00g ₓ (1mol / 138.206g) = 0.0289 moles CO₃²⁻

Replacing:

10.80 = 10.32 + log [0.0289] / [HCO₃⁻]

[HCO₃⁻] = 0.009570 moles you need to add to obtain the desire pH

As molar mass of NaHCO₃ is 84.007g/mol, mass of NaHCO₃ is:

0.009570 moles ₓ (84.007g / mol) =

<h3>0.804g of NaHCO₃ you must add</h3>

When an alkane reacts with an element from group 7a, the reaction is referred to as?

Elena-2011 [213]

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbon, that is they contain hydrogen and carbon without a double or triple bond between the carbon atoms, e.g. ethane, propane. Group 7a in the periodic table are called halogens e.g chlorine, bromine. Alkanes react with halogens in a reaction called substitution, where halogens replace hydrogen atoms in alkanes.

A 4.86-gram sample of calcium reacted completely with oxygen to form 6.80 grams of calcium oxide. This reaction is represented b

sesenic [268]

The number of mole of Ca reacted is:
4.86 g Ca/ (40.08 g/mol Ca)= 0.121 mol Ca

Because Ca reacted completely with oxygen and there is 2 mol Ca, there is 1 mol O2 reacted.

Total mass of oxygen that reacted is:
0.121 mol Ca* (1mol O2/ 2 mol Ca)* (32 g O2/ 1 mol O2)= 1.94 g O2 reacted.

Hope this would help~

Write the empirical formula for at least four ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions:

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Fe(CN)₂, FeCO₃, Pb(CN)₄, Pb(CO₃)₂

Explanation:

Cations (positively charged ions) can only form ionic bonds with anions (negatively charged ions). However, you can't just simply put one cation and one anion together to form a compound. Each compound needs to been neutral, or have an overall charge of 0. When cations and anions do not have charges that perfectly cancel, you need to modify the amount of each ion in the compound.

1.) Fe(CN)₂
-----> Fe²⁺ and CN⁻

-----> +2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0

2.) FeCO₃

-----> Fe²⁺ and CO₃²⁻

-----> +2 + (-2) = 0

3.) Pb(CN)₄

-----> Pb⁴⁺ and CN⁻

-----> +4 + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) = 0

4.) Pb(CO₃)₂

-----> Pb⁴⁺ and CO₃²⁻

-----> +4 +(-2) + (-2) = 0

Why are coal, oil, and natural gas called fossil fuels?

Because that's where they come from. Coal, oil, and natural gas are the products
of dead dinosaurs rotting in the ground under great pressure for millions of years.

The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate buffer will be useful from pH values ________. The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The usefulness of a buffer is its ability to resist changes in pH when small quantities of base or acid are added to it. This ability is the consequence of having both the conjugate base and the weak acid present in solution which will consume the added base or acid.

This capacity is lost if the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of weak acid differ by an order of magnitude. Since buffers having ratios differing by more will have their pH driven by either the weak acid or its conjugate base .

From the Henderson-Hasselbach equation we have that

pH = pKa + log [A⁻]/[HA]

thus

0.1 ≤ [A⁻]/[HA] ≤ 10

Therefore the log of this range is -1 to 1, and the pH will have a useful range of within +/- 1 the pKa of the buffer.

Now we are equipped to answer our question:

pH range = 3.9 +/- 1 = 2.9 through 4.9
