To solve this problem,
we can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation which relates the pH to the measure
of acidity pKa. The equation is given as:<span>
<span>pH = pKa + log ([base]/[acid]) ---> 1</span></span>
Where,
[base] = concentration
of C2H3O2
in molarity or moles
<span>[acid] = concentration of HC2H3O2 in molarity or moles</span>
For the sake of easy calculation, let us assume that:
[base] = 1
[acid] = x
<span>
Therefore using equation 1,
4.24 = 4.74 + log (1 / x)
<span>log (1 / x) = - 0.5
1 / x = 0.6065 </span></span>
x =
1.65<span>
The required ratio of C2H3O2 /HC2H3O2 <span>
is 1:1.65 or 3:5. </span></span>
<u>Answer:</u> The initial pH of the HCl solution is 3
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

where,
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1 mole of HCl produces 1 mole of
ions and 1 mole of
ions
To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:
![pH=-\log[H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5BH%5E%2B%5D)
We are given:
![[H^+]=0.001M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D0.001M)
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the initial pH of the HCl solution is 3
Answer:
Mole Fraction (H₂O) = 0.6303
Mole Fraction (C₂H₅OH) = 0.3697
Explanation:
(Step 1)
Calculate the mole value of each substance using their molar masses.
Molar Mass (H₂O): 2(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol
Molar Mass (H₂O): 18.014 g/mol
200.0 g H₂O 1 mole
--------------------- x ------------------ = 11.10 moles H₂O
18.014 g
Molar Mass (C₂H₅OH): 2(12.011 g/mol) + 6(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol
Molar Mass (C₂H₅OH): 46.068 g/mol
300.0 g C₂H₅OH 1 mole
---------------------------- x -------------------- = 6.512 moles C₂H₅OH
46.068 g
(Step 2)
Using the mole fraction ratio, calculate the mole fraction of each substance.
moles solute
Mole Fraction = ------------------------------------------------
moles solute + moles solvent
11.10 moles H₂O
Mole Fraction = -------------------------------------------------------------
11.10 moles H₂O + 6.512 moles C₂H₅OH
Mole Fraction (H₂O) = 0.6303
6.512 moles C₂H₅OH
Mole Fraction = -------------------------------------------------------------
11.10 moles H₂O + 6.512 moles C₂H₅OH
Mole Fraction (C₂H₅OH) = 0.3697
Explanation:
A chemical reaction equation that contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is known as a balanced chemical reaction equation.
For example, 
Here, number of reactant molecules are as follows.
Na = 2
S = 2
Cd = 1
O = 4
Number of product molecules are as follows.
Na = 2
S = 2
Cd = 1
O = 4
As there are already equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Hence, the reaction equation is balanced.
Also, in this reaction both
and
are present as aqueous solution. And, CdS is the precipitate that is formed as it is the insoluble solid that forms.
is present in aqueous state.
