Lets think about entropy. Entropy greatly favors random, crazy, and disordered options for key, simplified ideas to think about. With this in mind which state has the most "crazy" or the most disorder going on? Solids are pretty fixed in place, liquids have a little more freedom, and gasses can go crazy, moving around and causing agreat deal if disorder. Imaging it this way is helpful? =)

Be sure to answer all parts. What is the [H3O+] and the pH of a buffer that consists of 0.26 M HNO2 and 0.89 M KNO2? (K, of HNO2

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer : The $H_3O^+$ ion concentration is, $1.12\times 10^{-3}M$ and the pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Explanation : Given,

$K_a=7.1\times 10^{-4}$

Concentration of $HNO_2$ (weak acid)= 0.26 M

Concentration of $KNO_2$ (conjugate base or salt)= 0.89 M

First we have to calculate the value of $pK_a$ .

The expression used for the calculation of $pK_a$ is,

$pK_a=-\log (K_a)$

Now put the value of $K_a$ in this expression, we get:

$pK_a=-\log (7.1\times 10^{-4})$

$pK_a=4-\log (7.1)$

$pK_a=3.15$

Now we have to calculate the pH of the solution.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

$pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}$

$pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[KNO_2]}{[HNO_2]}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$pH=3.15+\log (\frac{0.89}{0.26})$

$pH=2.95$

The pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Now we have to calculate the $H_3O^+$ ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H_3O^+]$

$2.95=-\log [H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1.12\times 10^{-3}M$

The $H_3O^+$ ion concentration is, $1.12\times 10^{-3}M$
