Answer:

Benzoic acid: 1.288g

Sodium benzoate: 124.48g

Explanation:

Benzoic acid, HC7H5O2 is in equilibrium with its conjugate base, C7H5O2⁻ producing a buffer. The pH of the buffer can be determined following H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [C7H5O2⁻] / [HC7H5O2] (1)

<em>Where pH is desire pH = 6.10 pKa is -log Ka = 4.187 and [] are molar concentrations of the buffer.</em>

As you want to prepare 2.5L of a 0.35M of buffer, moles of buffer are:

2.5L ₓ (0.35mol / L) = 0.875moles of buffer.

And you can write:

0.875 moles = [C7H5O2⁻] + [HC7H5O2] (2)

Replacing (2) in (1)

pH = pKa + log [C7H5O2⁻] / [HC7H5O2]

6.10 = 4.187 + log [C7H5O2⁻] / [HC7H5O2]

1.913 =  log [C7H5O2⁻] / [HC7H5O2]

81.846 = 0.875mol - [HC7H5O2] / [HC7H5O2]

81.846 [HC7H5O2] = 0.875mol - [HC7H5O2]

82.846 [HC7H5O2] = 0.875mol

<h3>[HC7H5O2] = 0.01056 moles</h3>

And moles of the benzoate, [C7H5O2⁻]:

[C7H5O2⁻] = 0.875mol - 0.01056mol =

<h3>[C7H5O2⁻] = 0.8644mol</h3><h3 />

Using molar mass of benzoic acid and sodium benzoate, amount of each compound you must add to prepare 2.5L of the buffer are:

Benzoic acid: 0.01056mol ₓ (122.01g/mol) = 1.288g

Sodium benzoate: 0.8644mol ₓ (144.01g/mol) = 124.482g

bulgar [2K]

Bromine has the following electron configuration: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p5. categorize the electrons in each. Answer for video: The video player is loaded.

On the periodic chart, row 5, column 7, is where you can find a chemical element that was identified in 1811. It has a proton count of 53 and an atomic mass of 126.9. Iodine's atom, then, contains 53 electrons in the following configuration: 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3d10, 4p6, 5s2, 4d10, 5p5 (Kr 4d10 5s2 5p5). Cu Z = 29 has an electrical arrangement of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1. Copper (Co) has the following electron configuration: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s3 3p6 4s2 3d7. If a chemist were to refer to Copper by its subshell, they would abbreviate this notation to "3d7."

Is it possible to transfer heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.

For example,  air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.

Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.
