pH indicator. A dye that is an acid and that appears as different colors in its protonated and deprotonated forms can be used as

a pH indicator. Suppose that you have a 0.001 M solution of a dye with a p Ka of 7.2. From the color, the concentration of the protonated form is found to be 0.0002 M. Assume that the remainder of the dye is in the deprotonated form. What is the pH of the solution? Berg, Jeremy M.. Biochemistry (p. 24). W. H. Freeman. Kindle Edition.

Answer:

pH = 7.8

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation may be used to solve the problem:

pH = pKa + log([A⁻] / [HA])

The solution of concentration 0.001 M is a formal concentration, which means that it is the sum of the concentrations of the different forms of the acid. In order to find the concentration of the deprotonated form, the following equation is used:

[HA] + [A⁻] = 0.001 M

[A⁻] = 0.001 M - 0.0002 M = 0.0008 M

The values can then be substituted into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = 7.2 + log(0.0008M/0.0002M) = 7.8

The standard emf for the cell using the overall cell reaction below is +2.20 V:
ANEK [815]

Answer:

emf generated by cell is 2.32 V

Explanation:

Oxidation: 2Al-6e^{-}\rightarrow 2Al^{3+}

Reduction: 3I_{2}+6e^{-}\rightarrow 6I^{-}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Overall: 2Al+3I_{2}\rightarrow 2Al^{3+}+6I^{-}

Nernst equation for this cell reaction at 25^{0}\textrm{C}-

E_{cell}=E_{cell}^{0}-\frac{0.059}{n}log{[Al^{3+}]^{2}[I^{-}]^{6}}

where n is number of electrons exchanged during cell reaction, E_{cell}^{0} is standard cell emf , E_{cell} is cell emf , [Al^{3+}] is concentration of Al^{3+} and [Cl^{-}] is concentration of Cl^{-}

Plug in all the given values in the above equation -

E_{cell}=2.20-\frac{0.059}{6}log[(4.5\times 10^{-3})^{2}\times (0.15)^{6}]V

So, E_{cell}=2.32V

What are the examples of physical chemistry?
OverLord2011 [107]

ANSWER:

Physical chemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the physical structure of chemical compounds, the way they react with other matter and the bonds that hold their atoms together. An example of physical chemistry is nitric acid eating through wood.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number
