Calculate the ph of a solution containing 0.0451 m potassium hydrogen tartrate and 0.028 m dipotassium tartrate. The ka values f

or tartaric acid are 9.20 × 10-4 (ka1) and 4.31 × 10-5 (ka2).

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

How many moles of electrons are transferred when 2.0 moles of aluminum metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate in aqueous sol
mojhsa [17]

Moles of electrons:

The moles of electrons that are transferred are 12F

A balanced equation:

2 moles of Aluminium metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate.

2Al + 3Cu{(NO_3)}_2  \rightarrow 2Al{(NO_3)}_3 +3 Cu

Given:

Moles of Aluminium = 2

As Aluminium goes from 0 to +3 oxidation state

Al \rightarrow Al^{3+} + 3e^-

And copper goes from +2 to 0

Cu^{2+} + 2e^-\rightarrow Cu

On balancing the number of electrons we get:

For 1 mole of Al 6e^- is required.

Therefore for 2 moles of Al,

Total (2\times6)F mole of electrons

Where F= Faraday's constant= 96500 C

So, 12F moles of electrons are transferred.
