Answer:

pH = 7.233

Explanation:

Initially, the buffer contains 0.208 moles of NaHSO₃ and 0.134 moles of Na₂SO₃.

NaHSO₃ reacts with NaOH thus:

NaHSO₃ + NaOH → Na₂SO₃ + H₂O

50.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH are:

0.0500L × (1mol / 1L) = 0.0500moles of NaOH added. That means after the addition are produced  0.0500moles of Na₂SO₃ and consumed 0.0500moles of NaHSO₃. That means final moles of the buffer are:

NaHSO₃: 0.208 mol - 0.050 mol = <em>0.158 mol</em>

Na₂SO₃: 0.134 mol + 0.050 mol = <em>0.184 mol</em>

<em> </em>

As pKa of this buffer is 7.167, it is possible to use H-H equation to find pH, thus:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [Na₂SO₃] / [NaHSO₃]

pH = 7.167 + log₁₀ [0.184] / [0.158]

<em>pH = 7.233</em>

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO (g) is Keq = 4.20 ⋅ 10-31 at 30 °C. At equilibrium, __
pychu [463]

Answer:

At equilibrium, reactants predominate.

Explanation:

For every reaction, the equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants. Thus, for the reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO the expression of its equilibrium constant is:

Keq = \frac{[NO]^{2}}{[O_{2} ][N_{2}]}

Since the equilibrium constant is Keq = 4.20x10-31 the concentration of reactants O2 and N2 must be much higher than products to obtain such a small number as  4.20x10-31 at the equilibrium. Hence, at equilibrium reactants predominate.
