Give me a thanks I been helped a lot of people and non of them is thanks me.

<span>Gold have a single outer electron. This seems disadvantageous, energy-wise, until you look at the orbitals the electrons are in. The lone electron is in an S-orbital. This orbital is thus half full (since s-orbitals can contain 2 electrons), whereas all the other inner orbitals in silver and gold are filled, and hence exceptionally stable. After a full orbital, the next most stable orbital is a half full one. </span>

You have 500.0 ml of a buffer solution containing 0.30 m acetic acid (ch3cooh) and 0.20 m sodium acetate (ch3coona). what will t
Nataly [62]
First, we should get moles acetic acid = molarity * volume

                                                                =0.3 M * 0.5 L

                                                                =  0.15 mol

then, we should get moles acetate = molarity * volume

                                                           = 0.2 M * 0.5L

                                                           = 0.1 mol

then, we have to get moles of OH- which added:

moles OH- = molarity  * volume

                   = 1 M    * 0.02L

                  = 0.02 mol

when the reaction equation is:


                 CH3COOH  +  OH-  → CH3COO-   +  H2O


moles acetic acid after adding OH- = (0.15-0.02) 
                                             
                                                            =  0.13M                                       

moles acetate after adding OH- =  (0.1 + 0.02)

                                                      =   0.12 M

Total volume = 0.5 L + 0.02 L= 0.52 L

∴[acetic acid] = moles acetic acid after adding OH- / total volume

                        = 0.13mol / 0.52L

                       = 0.25 M

and [acetate ) = 0.12 mol / 0.52L
 
                        = 0.23 M

by using H-H equation we can get PH:

PH = Pka + ㏒[salt/acid]

when we have Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5

∴Pka = -㏒Ka 

        = -㏒ 1.8 x 10^-5

       = 4.7

So by substitution:

∴ PH = 4.7 + ㏒[acetate/acetic acid]

         = 4.7 + ㏒(0.23/0.25)

        = 4.66
