Answer:

a) pH = 9.14

b) pH = 8.98

c) pH = 8.79

Explanation:

In this case we have an acid base titration. We have a weak base in this case the pyridine (C₅H₅N) and a strong acid which is the HCl.

Now, we want the know the pH of the resulting solution when we add the following volume of acid: 0, 10 and 20.

To know this, we first need to know the equivalence point of this titration. This can be known using the following expression:

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂  (1)

Using this expression, we can calculate the volume of acid required to reach the equivalence point. Doing that we have:

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

V₁ = M₂V₂ / M₁

V₁ = 0.125 * 25 / 0.1 = 31.25 mL

This means that the acid and base will reach the equivalence point at 31.25 mL of acid added. So, the volume of added acid of before, are all below this mark, so we can expect that the pH of this solution will be higher than 7, in other words, still basic.

To know the value of pH, we need to apply the following expression:

pH = 14 - pOH  (2)

the pOH can be calculated using this expression:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]  (3)

The [OH⁻] is a value that can be calculated when the pyridine is dissociated into it's ion. However, as this is a weak acid, the pyridine will not dissociate completely in solution, instead, only a part of it will be dissociated. Now, to know this, we need the Kb value of the pyridine.

The reported Kb value of the pyridine is 1.5x10⁻⁹ so, with this value we will do an ICE chart for each case, and then, calculate the value of the pH.

<u>a) 0 mL of acid added.</u>

In this case, the titration has not begun, so the concentration of the base will not be altered. Now, with the Kb value, let's write an ICE chart to calculate the [OH⁻], the pOH and then the pH:

       C₅H₅N + H₂O <-------> C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 1.5x10⁻⁹

i)       0.125                                0             0

e)        -x                                   +x           +x

c)      0.125-x                              x             x

Writting the Kb expression:

Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺] [OH⁻] / [C₅H₅N]    replacing the values of the chart:

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.125-x --> Kb is really small, so we can assume that x will be very small too, and 0.125-x can be neglected to only 0.125, and then:

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.125

1.5x10⁻⁹ * 0.125 = x²

x = [OH⁻] = 1.37x10⁻⁵ M

Now, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log(1.37x10⁻⁵) = 4.86

Finally the pH:

pH = 14 - 4.86

<h2>pH = 9.14</h2>

<u>b) 10 mL of acid added</u>

In this case the titration has begun so the acid starts to react with the base, so we need to know how many moles of the base remains after the volume of added acid:

moles acid = 0.1 * (0.010) = 1x10⁻³ moles

moles base = 0.125 * 0.025 = 3.125x10⁻³

This means that the base is still in higher quantities, and the acid is the limiting reactant here, so the remaining moles will be:

remaining moles of pyridine = 3.125x10⁻³ - 1x10⁻³ = 2.125x10⁻³ moles

The concentration of pyridine in solution:

[C₅H₅N] = 2.125x10⁻³ / (0.025 + 0.010) = 0.0607 M

Now with this concentration, we will do the same procedure of before, with the ICE chart, but replacing this new value of the base, to get the [OH⁻] and then the pH:

        C₅H₅N + H₂O <-------> C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 1.5x10⁻⁹

i)       0.0607                             0             0

e)        -x                                   +x           +x

c)      0.0607-x                           x             x

Writting the Kb expression:

Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺] [OH⁻] / [C₅H₅N]    replacing the values of the chart:

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.0607-x --> 0.0607

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.0607

1.5x10⁻⁹ * 0.0607 = x²

x = [OH⁻] = 9.54x10⁻⁶ M

Now, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log(9.54x10⁻⁶) = 5.02

Finally the pH:

pH = 14 - 5.02

<h2>pH = 8.98</h2>

<u>c) 20 mL of acid added:</u>

In this case the titration it's almost reaching the equivalence point and the acid is still reacting with the base, so we need to know how many moles of the base remains after the volume of added acid:

moles acid = 0.1 * (0.020) = 2x10⁻³ moles

moles base = 0.125 * 0.025 = 3.125x10⁻³

This means that the base is still in higher quantities, and the acid is the limiting reactant here, so the remaining moles will be:

remaining moles of pyridine = 3.125x10⁻³ - 2x10⁻³ = 1.125x10⁻³ moles

The concentration of pyridine in solution:

[C₅H₅N] = 1.125x10⁻³ / (0.025 + 0.020) = 0.025 M

Now with this concentration, we will do the same procedure of before, with the ICE chart, but replacing this new value of the base, to get the [OH⁻] and then the pH:

        C₅H₅N + H₂O <-------> C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 1.5x10⁻⁹

i)       0.025                                0             0

e)        -x                                   +x           +x

c)      0.025-x                             x             x

Writting the Kb expression:

Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺] [OH⁻] / [C₅H₅N]    replacing the values of the chart:

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.025-x --> 0.025

1.5x10⁻⁹ = x² / 0.025

1.5x10⁻⁹ * 0.025 = x²

x = [OH⁻] = 6.12x10⁻⁶ M

Now, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log(6.12x10⁻⁶) = 5.21

Finally the pH:

pH = 14 - 5.21

<h2>pH = 8.79</h2>

A distillation column with a partial reboiler and a total condenser is being used to separate a mixture of benzene, toluene, and
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

11.8.4 Distillation Columns

Distillation columns present a hazard in that they contain large inventories of flammable boiling liquid, usually under pressure. There are a number of situations which may lead to loss of containment of this liquid.

The conditions of operation of the equipment associated with the distillation column, particularly the reboiler and bottoms pump, are severe, so that failure is more probable.

The reduction of hazard in distillation columns by the limitation of inventory has been discussed above. A distillation column has a large input of heat at the reboiler and a large output at the condenser. If cooling at the condenser is lost, the column may suffer overpressure. It is necessary to protect against this by higher pressure design, relief valves, or HIPS. On the other hand, loss of steam at the reboiler can cause underpressure in the column. On columns operating at or near atmospheric pressure, full vacuum design, vacuum breakers, or inert gas injection is needed for protection. Deposition of flammable materials on packing surfaces has led to many fires on opening of distillation column for maintenance.

Another hazard is overpressure due to heat radiation from fire. Again pressure relief devices are required to provide protection.

The protection of distillation columns is one of the topics treated in detail in codes for pressure relief such as APIRP 521. Likewise, it is one of the principal applications of trip systems.

Another quite different hazard in a distillation column is the ingress of water. The rapid expansion of the water as it flashes to steam can create very damaging overpressures.

8). How many moles of oxygen gas must be placed in a 35.0 L container in order
klemol [59]

Answer:

4.1 moles

Explanation:

Applying

PV = nRT................ equation 1

Where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = molar gas constant, T = Temperature.

make n the subject  of the equation

n = PV/RT.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V = 35 L , P = 2.8 atm, T = 15 °C  = (15+273) = 288 K, R = 0.083 L.atm/K.mol

Substitute these values into equation 2

n = (35×2.8)/(0.083×288)

n = 4.1 moles
