Given buffer:

potassium hydrogen tartrate/dipotassium tartrate (KHC4H4O6/K2C4H4O6 )

[KHC4H4O6] = 0.0451 M

[K2C4H4O6] = 0.028 M

Ka1 = 9.2 *10^-4

Ka2 = 4.31*10^-5

Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation;

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

where pka = -logKa

In this case we will use the ka corresponding to the deprotonation of the second proton i.e. ka2

pH = -log Ka2 + log [K2C4H4O6]/[KHC4H4O6]

     = -log (4.31*10^-5) + log [0.0451]/[0.028]

pH = 4.15

Sati [7]

Answer:

The mass of reactants and products are equal hence the reaction obeys law of conservation of mass

Explanation:

The law of mass conservation states that for a closed system to all transfer of mass, the mass of system must remain constant over time. This means for a chemical reaction, the mass of reactants must equal the mass of products.

if 2.796g of Zn reacts with 2.414g of sulphur to produce 4.169g of ZnS ad 1.041g of unreacted sulphur, then it means that accorfing to the law of mass conservation, the mass of reactants (zinc and sulphur), must be equal to mass of products (zinc sulfide and unreacted sulphur)

Mass of reactants = 2.796g + 2.414g =5.21g

Mass of products = 4.169g + 1.041g=5.21g

Answer:

The net ionic equation for the given reaction :

3Mn^{2+}(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Mn_3(PO_4)_2(s)

Explanation:

3MnI_2(aq)+2Na_3PO_4_2(aq)\rightarrow Mn_3(PO_4)_2(s)+6NaI(aq)...[1]

MnI_2(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+2I^-(aq)..[2]

Na_3PO_4(aq)\rightarrow 3Na^{+}(aq)+PO_4^{3-}(aq)...[3]

NaI(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+I^-(aq)

Replacing MnI_2(aq) , NaI and Na_3PO_4(aq) in [1] by usig [2] [3] and [4]

3Mn^{2+}(aq)+6I^-(aq)+6Na^{+}(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Mn_3(PO_4)_2(s)+6Na^+(aq)+6I^-(aq)

Removing the common ions present ion both the sides, we get the net ionic equation for the given reaction [1]:

3Mn^{2+}(aq)+2PO_4^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow Mn_3(PO_4)_2(s)
