A buffer contains 0.18 mol of propionic acid (C2H5COOH) and 0.26 mol of sodium propionate (C2H5COONa) in 1.20 L. What is the pH

of this buffer?
What is the pH of the buffer after the addition of 0.02 mol of NaOH?

Answer:

1) pH = 5.05

2) pH = 5.13

3) pH = 4.97

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles of propionic acid = 0.18 moles

Number of moles sodium propionate = 0.26 moles

Volume = 1.20 L

Ka = 1.3 * 10^-5    → pKa = 4.989

Step 2: Calculate concentrations

Concentration = moles / volume

[acid]= 0.18/ 1.2 =0.150 M

[salt]= 0.26/ 1.3 = 0.217 M

pH = 4.89 + log(0.217/0.150)=<u>5.05</u>

What is the pH of the buffer after the addition of 0.02 mol of NaOH?

moles acid = 0.18 - 0.02 = 0.16

[acid]= 0.16/ 1.2=0.133 M

moles salt = 0.26 + 0.02 = 0.28

[salt]= 0.28/ 12=0.233

pH = 4.89 + log 0.233/ 0.133 = 5.13

What is the pH of the buffer after the addition of 0.02 mol of HI?

moles acid = 0.18+ 0.02 = 0.20 moles

[acid]= 0.20/ 1.2 = 0.167 M

[salt]= 0.26 - 0.02= 0.24 moles

[salt]= 0.24/ 1.2 = 0.20 M

pH = 4.89 + log 0.20/ 0.167= 4.97

A. Fe2O3 + 3CO= 2Fe+3CO2
Here element oxidised is CO or Carbon Monoxide, since oxygen is added.

Here Element reduced is 3H2C2O4, since Hydrogen is being added. Also KMnO4 is reduced, since Oxygen is removed.

Why is a chemical equilibrium described as dynamic?
Katen [24]
Because when equilibrium is reached, the reaction is still occurring in both directions, it's just that rate(forward) =rate(reverse) so there is no net change in the concentrations of the reactants or products.

Explain the "Law of Conservation of Mass". Provide an example to support your explanation
Vinil7 [7]
The law of conservation of mass states that matter is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. in any chemical reaction, the total mass of the products always equals the total mass of the reactants.
