Answer:

pH 2.0; benzoic acid, layer: organic

pH 4.2; benzoic acid and benzoate anion, water layer

Explanation:

pH2.0: a lower PH than the pKa it becomes protonated and remains in the organic layer as benzoic acid, organic layer:

pH 4.2: at pH of 4.2 moves to the benzoic acid and benzoate anion, layer: water and organic

pH 12.0: at pH above the pKa it is more soluble in water hence benzoate anion, layer: water

How to calculate moles
blondinia [14]

Explanation:

First you must calculate the number of moles in this solution, by rearranging the equation. No. Moles (mol) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L) = 0.5 x 2. = 1 mol.

For NaCl, the molar mass is 58.44 g/mol. Now we can use the rearranged equation. Mass (g) = No. Moles (mol) x Molar Mass (g/mol) = 1 x 58.44. = 58.44 g.
