A chemistry graduate student is given 500. mL of a 0.20 M chloroacetic acid (HCH2ClCO2) solution. Chloroacetic acid is a weak ac

id with Ka= 1.3 x 10^-3. What mass of KCH2ClCO2 should the student dissolve in the HCH2ClCO2 solution to turn it into a buffer with pH = 3.01? You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the KCH2ClCO2 is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

12 g of choloracetic acid

Explanation:

The buffer equilibrium is:

HCH₂ClCO₂ ⇄ CH₂ClCO₂⁻ + H⁺

pka= -log ka =

Ka: 1,3x10⁻³ = [CH₂ClCO₂⁻] [H⁺] / [HCH₂ClCO₂]

By Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

3,01 = 2,89 + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

1,318 = [A⁻] / [HA]

As molar concentration of chloroacetic acid (HA) is 0,20M

[A⁻] = 0,26 mol/L

The volume is 500 mL ≡ 0,5 L

0,26mol/L × 0,5 L = 0,13 moles of chloroacetic acid. In grams:

0,13 mol × (94,5g / 1mol) = <em>12 g of choloracetic acid</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Effectus [21]

Labels must clearly identify the chemical and include information on its hazards, plus instructions and information on its safe storage, handling, use, and disposal.

What does the information on the chemical label indicate?

The chemical label indicates the following information.

Product Identifier: The method used to identify the chemical (in the ingredient disclosure). On the label, include the complete chemical name or number that is used for the hazardous product. Both the label and SDS must have the same information. Abbreviations for chemicals are not accepted.

Signal Words: Assigned to a GHS hazard class and category, "Danger" or "Warning" are used to underline hazards and show the relative level of severity of the hazard.

Danger Statements: Typical expressions that are associated with a hazard class and category and that define the hazard's characteristics. On a label, there must be mention of every danger that applies.

Precautionary Statements: A term that describes actions that should be performed to reduce or eliminate negative effects brought on by exposure to or inappropriate storage of a substance.

Symbols (hazard pictograms): Convey information about environmental, physical, and health hazards that are categorized and allocated to a GHS hazard class.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water is a conductor if it has solutes/ions dissolved in it(tapwater for example)

but pure water is not a good conductor of electricity.

Nails and keychains(made of metal) are conductors of electricity.

rosijanka [135]
Answer: A

Explanation:
The buoyancy force only takes affect when an object is placed in water and floats. This occurs because the density of that object is less than the density of water.
Water is the main liquid used for measuring the density of an object.

Hope this helps! Please tell me if I am wrong :3

how many moles of iodine should be added to 750 grams of carbon tetrachloride to prepare a 0.24 m solution
aleksley [76]

Answer:

0.18 mol

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of carbon tetrachloride (solvent): 750 g
  • Molality of the solution: 0.24 m
  • Moles of iodine (solute): ?

Step 1: Convert the mass of the solvent to kilograms

We will use the relationship 1 kg = 1,000 g.

750g \times \frac{1kg}{1,000g} =0.750kg

Step 2: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molality is equal to the moles of solute divided by the kilograms of solvent. Then,

m = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{kilograms\ of\ solvent} \\moles\ of\ solute = m \times kilograms\ of\ solvent = \frac{0.24mol}{kg}  \times 0.750kg = 0.18 mol
