Answer:- (a)The pH of the buffer solution is 3.90.

(b) the pH of the solution after addition of HCl would be 3.60.

(c) the pH of the buffer solution after addition of NaOH is 4.32.

Solution:- (a) It is a buffer solution so the pH could easily be calculated using Handerson equation:

pH=Pka+log(\frac{base}{acid})

pKa can be calculated from given Ka value as:

pKa=-logKa

pKa=-log(6.3*10^-^5)

pKa = 4.20

let's plug in the values in the Handerson equation:

pH=4.20+log(\frac{0.025}{0.05})

pH = 4.20 - 0.30

pH = 3.90

The pH of the buffer solution is 3.90.

(b) Let's say the acid is represented by HA and the base is represented by A^- .

Original mili moles of HA from part a = 0.05(100) = 5

original mili moles of A^- from part a = 0.025(100) = 2.5

mili moles of HCl that is H^+ added = 0.100(10.0) = 1

This HCl reacts with the base present in the buffer to make HA as:

A^-+H^+\rightarrow HA

Total mili moles of HA after addition of HCl = 5+1 = 6

mili moles of base after addition of HCl = 2.5-1 = 1.5

Let's plug in the values in the Handerson equation again. Here, we could use the mili moles to calculate the pH. The answer remains same even if we use the concentrations also as the final volume is same both for acid and base.

pH=4.20+log(\frac{1.5}{6})

pH = 4.20 - 0.60

pH = 3.60

So, the pH of the solution after addition of HCl would be 3.60.

(c) mili moles of NaOH or OH^- added to the original buffer = 0.05(15.0) = 0.75

This OH^- reacts with HA to form A^- as:

HA+OH^-\rightarrow H_2O+A^-

mili moles of HA after addition of NaOH = 5-0.75 = 4.25

mili moles of A^- after addition of NaOH = 2.5+0.75 = 3.25

Let's plug in the values again in Handerson equation:

pH=4.20+log(\frac{3.25}{4.25})

pH = 4.20 - 0.12

pH = 4.32

So, the pH of the buffer solution after addition of NaOH is 4.32.

kirill [66]
<span>Answer: A 0.04403 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-mL at 289.0 K and 1.10 atm. Upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% C and 74.695% Cl. What is the molecular formula of the compound? --------------------------------------... Seems like I did a problem very similar to this--this must be the "B" test. But the halogen was different. 25.305% C/12 = 2.108 74.695% Cl/35.5 = 2.104 So the empirical formula would be CH. However, there are many compounds which fit this bill, so we have to use the gas data. (And I made, in the previous problem, the simplifying assumption that 289C and 1.10 atm would offset each other, so I'll do that, too.) 0.044 grams/10 ml = x/22.4 liters 0.044g/0.010 liters = x/22.4 liters 22.4 liters/0.010 liters = 2240 (ratio) 2240 x .044 = 98.56 (actual atomic weight) CCl = 35.5+12 or 47.5, so two of those is 95 grams/mole. This is sufficiient to distinguish C2CL2, (dichloroacetylene) from C6CL6 (hexachlorobenzene) which would mass 3 times as much.</span>
