What combination of substances will give a buffered solution that has a pH of 5.05? (Assume each pair of substances is dissolved

in 5.0 L of water.) (Kb for NH3 = 1.8 *10^–5; Kb for C5H5N = 1.7 * 10^–9)
A) 1.0 mole NH3 and 1.5 mole NH4Cl
B) 1.5 mole NH3 and 1.0 mole NH4Cl
C) 1.0 mole C5H5N and 1.5 mole C5H5NHCl
D) 1.5 mole C5H5N and 1.0 mole C5H5NHCl
E) none of these

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When the Kb is given, the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation can be used to calculate the pOH of a buffer solution:

pOH = pKb + log ([A⁻] / [HA]) = -log(Kb) + log ([BH+] / [B])

Here, moles can be used in place of the concentration since the pairs listed are both dissolved in 5L, which cancel due to the fraction in the logarithm.

a) pOH = -log(1.8 x 10⁻⁵) + log(1.5/1.0) = 4.92

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 4.92 = 9.08

b) pOH = -log(1.8 x 10⁻⁵) + log(1.0/1.5) = 4.57

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 4.57 = 9.43

c) pOH = -log(1.7 x 10⁻⁹) + log(1.5/1.0) =  8.95

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 8.95 = 5.05

d) pOH = -log(1.7 x 10⁻⁹) + log(1.0/1.5) =  8.59

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 -  = 5.41

We know that:
mass = density x volume
The volume of the total mixture is 0.1 m³
Let the first liquid be A and the second be B
Mass Total = Mass A + Mass B

800 x 0.1 = 1500Va + 500(0.1 - Va)

staci is attending a music festival. the ticket to the festival costs $87.96, Staci pleans to purchase $30.00 t-shirts from the
ziro4ka [17]

The total amount that Staci had in hand is $200.00.

The ticket at that time costs $87.96.

One Tshirt costs, $30.00.

Now that she has paid ticket, she will deduct the ticket from the cash she has in hand, so as to know the amount she is remaining with.

Tha is, $200-$87.96 = $112.04.

∴ In hand Staci has $112.04 extra cash whereby she can purchase more t shirts.

To get the number of tshirt she can buy, she will divide the amount she has in hand by the amount per piece of t shirt.

For example, $112.04 / $30 = $3.73.

∴ Staci can only purchase threet shirts only at a total cost of $90 for all the t shirts which is $30 × 3 = $90.

Staci has excess of 22.04 after deducting ticket and the other amount she has used to purchase the extra t shirts.

That is, $112.04 - $90 = $22.04.

how much water should be added to 1 gallon of pure antifreeze to obtain a solution that is 60% antifreeze?
antoniya [11.8K]
1 gallon of antifreeze = 60% of mixture. Total mixture:
Vm = 1/0.6
= 1.67 gallons

Volume of water = total vol - antifreeze vol
= 1.67 - 1
= 0.67 gallon of water

Answer:

C₃H₄O₄

Explanation:

In order to get the empirical formula of a compound, we have to follow a series of steps.

Step 1: Divide the percent by mass of each element by its atomic mass.

C: 34.6/12.01 = 2.88

H: 3.9/1.01 = 3.86

O: 61.5/16.00 = 3.84

Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one, i.e., 2.88

C: 2.88/2.88 = 1

H: 3.86/2.88 ≈ 1.34

O: 3.84/2.88 ≈ 1.33

Step 3: Multiply all the numbers by a number that makes all of them integer

C: 1 × 3 = 3

H: 1.34 × 3 = 4

O: 1.33 × 3 = 4

The empirical formula is C₃H₄O₄.
