Answer:

pH = 3.49

Explanation:

We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HNO₂) and its conjugate base (NO₂⁻ coming from KNO₂). We can calculate the pH  of a buffer ssytem using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [base] / [acid]

pH = -log Ka + log [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = -log 4.50 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.290 M / 0.210 M

pH = 3.49

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction producing Cu(NO₃) is given below:

Cu(s)+ 4HNO₃(aq) ---> Cu(NO₃)(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Cu(NO₃) is produced from 1 mole of copper. Therefore, 0.010 moles of Cu(NO₃) will be produced from 0.010 mole of copper.

Molar mass of copper = 64 g/mol

mass of copper = number of moles * molar mass

mass of copper = 0.01 mol * 64 g/mol = 0.64 g

Percentage by mass of copper in the 2.00 g sample = (0.64/2.00) * 100%

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Find the density of a material given that a 5.03g sample occupies 3.24ml
Verizon [17]

Formula for density:

D = Mass / Volume

Mass = 5.03g

Volume = 3.24ml


Formula in our case:

D = 5.03 / 3.24

D = 0.31~g/m^{3}
