As discussed in class, water plays an important biological role and therefore knowing the properties of water plays a role in un

derstanding pH and its impact on biological structures. The ionization constant for water, Kw, is 1.14 x 10–15 at 0 °C and 9.6 x 10–14 at 60 °C. Determine the pH of water at 60 °C.

Answer:

Explanation:

H2O --> H+ + OH-

Ka = [H+][OH-]/[H2O]

Ka × [H2O] = Kw

Kw = [H+] × [OH-]

[H+] = [OH-] = x

Therefore,

9.6 x 10^-14 = x^2

x = 3.098 × 10^-7

[H+] = 3.098 × 10^-7 M

pH = -log[H+]

= -log [3.098 × 10^-7]

= 6.51

Answer:

6.5

Explanation:

Since pure water is neutral, the hydrogen ion concentration equals the hydroxide ion concentration.

[H⁺] = [OH⁻] and pK = pH + pOH. Since [H⁺] = [OH⁻], pH = -log[H⁺] = pOH = -log[OH⁻].

So, pK = 2pH  and K = ionisation constant for water at 60 °C = 9.6 × 10⁻¹⁴

pH = pK/2 = -logK/2 = - log(9.6 × 10⁻¹⁴)/2 = (14 - log9.6)/2 = 6.5

So, pH of water at 60 °C is 6.5

How many formula units of CaO are in 32.7 g of CaO?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

3.51× 10²³ formula units

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 32.7 g

Number of formula units = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 32.7 g/ 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.583 mol

Number of formula units:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

0.583 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ formula units / 1 mol

3.51× 10²³ formula units

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

A red blood cell is placed into each of the following solutions. Indicate whether crenation, hemolysis, or neither will occur. S
Burka [1]

Answer:

Solution A: crenation

Solution B: hemolysis

Solution C: hemolysis

Solution D: crenation

Solution E: crenation

Explanation:

Hemolysis is the rupturing of red blood cells, which results in the release of hemoglobin (from within the red blood cells) into the plasma. If a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will flow into the cell, the cell will swell and hemolysis will.

Crenation: when a red blood cell is placed in a <em>hypertonic solution (</em>such as highly saline solution), the red blood cell will lose water(osmosis) and will shrink in size. The red blood cell has undergone crenation.

In order for a red blood cell to prevent from undergoing hemolysis or crenation, the cell must be placed in an<em> isotonic solution, </em>i.e either in <u>0.9% (m/v) NaCl solution</u> or <u>5% glucose solution</u>

  • Solution B and Solution C are hypotonic solution, thus red blood cell has undergone hemolysis.
  • Solution A, D and E are hypertonic solution. thus red blood cell has undergone crenation
