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

How does repeatability have an effect on scientific research?
Bas_tet [7]
In science it is best to continue research, and rinse and repeat. This allows for a stronger hypothesis if you're results are the same every time, or change your hypothesis if you stumble upon new results. <span />

How many grams of NaOH are produced from 1.20 x 10^2 of Na2O
oksian1 [2.3K]
Write an balance the equation

Na2O + H2O -> 2 NaOH

Calculate the molecular mass of Na2O and NaOH from the atomic mass from the periodic table.

Na = 23
O=16
H=1

Na2O = 23 * 2 + 16 = 62
NaOH = 23+16+1= 40

For the stoichiometry of the reaction one mole of Na2O = 62g produce two mol of NaOH = 2* 40= 80 g

120 g Na2O x 80g NaOH / 62g Na2O=

154.8 g NaOH
