Answer:

Molarity of sodium acetate you will need to add is 0.0324M

Explanation:

<em>Assuming volume of the buffer is 1L.</em>

<em />

The pH of a buffer can be determined using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where pKa is pKa of the weak acid,  [A⁻] molar concentration of conjugate base and [HA] molar concentration of weak acid</em>

<em />

Replacing for the acetic buffer (pKa = 4.76):

pH = 4.76 + log [Sodium Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

As you have 0.010 moles of acetic acid in 1L:

[Acetic Acid] = 0.010mol / 1L = 0.010M

And you require a pH of 5.27:

5.27 = 4.76 + log [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

0.51 = log [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

10^0.51 = [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

3.236 =  [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

3.236 [0.010M] = [Sodium Acetate]

0.0324M = [Sodium Acetate]

<h3>Molarity of sodium acetate you will need to add is 0.0324M</h3>

2. Would you measure a pencil in meters? A hallway in millimeters? Discuss
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Measuring a pencil in meters would be very difficult, as a single meter is much longer than one pencil. Also, measuring a hallway in millimeters would be very difficult considering how small millimeters are in comparison to a hallway. However, if you switch these two then they would work very well.

PtichkaEL [24]
Aqueous nitric acid and aqueous ammonia reacts to form ammonium nitrate 
 HNO₃(aq)+NH₃(aq) = NH₄NO₃(aq)
 HNO₃ +NH3 = NH₄ (+) + NO₃ (-)
Therefore the net ionic equation will be;
 H⁺(aq) + NH₃ = NH₄⁺ (aq)

What is the molarity of 2.00 L of a solution that contains 14.6 g NaCl?
White raven [17]

Answer: The molarity of the solution is 0.125 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

moles of NaCl = \frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{14.6g}{58.5g/mol}=0.250mol

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

Molarity=\frac{0.250mol}{2.00L}=0.125M

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.125 M
