Carbon has a tendency to form covalent bonds.
Answer:
The concentration of the solution will be much lower than 6M
Explanation:
To prepare a solution of a solid, the appropriate mass is taken and accurately weighed in a weighing balance and then made up to mark with distilled water.
From
n= CV
n = number of moles m/M( m= mass of solid, M= molar mass of compound)
C= concentration of substance
V= volume of solution
m=120g
M= 40gmol-1
V=500ml
120/40= C×500/1000
C= 120/40× 1000/500
C=6M
This solution will not be exactly 6M if the student follows the procedure outlined in the question. The actual concentration will be much less than 6M.
This is because, solutions are prepared in a standard volumetric flask. Using a 1000ml beaker, the student must have added more water than the required 500ml thereby making the actual concentration of the solution less than the expected 6M.
Answer:
2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2
Explanation:
The mixture of a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF), produce a buffer. To find the pH of a buffer we must use H-H equation:
pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA]
<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer that you want = 3.2, pKa is the pKa of HF = 3.17, and [] could be taken as the moles of A-, the conjugate base (NaF) and the weak acid, HA, (HF). </em>
The moles of HF are:
500mL = 0.500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.0500 moles HF
Replacing:
3.2 = 3.17 + log [A-] / [0.0500moles]
0.03 = log [A-] / [0.0500moles]
1.017152 = [A-] / [0.0500moles]
[A-] = 0.0500mol * 1.017152
[A-] = 0.0536 moles NaF
The mass could be obtained using the molar mass of NaF (41.99g/mol):
0.0536 moles NaF * (41.99g/mol) =
<h3>2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2</h3>
What are organic and inorganic compounds? Organic chemistry is the study of the carbon compounding molecules. Inorganic chemistry, by contrast, is the study of all compounds that do NOT contain carbon compounds.
