Answer : The H_3O^+ ion concentration is, 1.12\times 10^{-3}M and the pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Explanation : Given,

K_a=7.1\times 10^{-4}

Concentration of HNO_2 (weak acid)= 0.26 M

Concentration of KNO_2 (conjugate base or salt)= 0.89 M

First we have to calculate the value of pK_a.

The expression used for the calculation of pK_a is,

pK_a=-\log (K_a)

Now put the value of K_a in this expression, we get:

pK_a=-\log (7.1\times 10^{-4})

pK_a=4-\log (7.1)

pK_a=3.15

Now we have to calculate the pH of the solution.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[KNO_2]}{[HNO_2]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=3.15+\log (\frac{0.89}{0.26})

pH=2.95

The pH of a buffer is, 2.95

Now we have to calculate the H_3O^+ ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H_3O^+]

2.95=-\log [H_3O^+]

[H_3O^+]=1.12\times 10^{-3}M

The H_3O^+ ion concentration is, 1.12\times 10^{-3}M

A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205 kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12000 mL. What is the pressure in atmos
Leni [432]

Answer: The pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas  = 205 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 4.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 12000 ml = 12 L    (1L=1000ml)  

205\times 4.0=P_2\times 12  

P_2=68.3kPa=0.674atm        (1kPa=0.0098atm)

Therefore, the pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

  n = 1.5atm (15L) / .0821 (280k) = .98 mol NaCl

  NaCl = 22.99g Na + 35.45g Cl = 58.44g NaCl

  58.44g NaCl x .98 mol NaCl = 57.27g NaCl
