What mass of NaC6H5COO should be added to 1.5 L of 0.40 M C6H5COOH solution at 25 °C to produce a solution with a pH of 3.87 giv
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

41 g

Explanation:

We have a buffer formed by a weak acid (C₆H₅COOH) and its conjugate base (C₆H₅COO⁻ coming from NaC₆H₅COO). We can find the concentration of C₆H₅COO⁻ (and therefore of NaC₆H₅COO) using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [C₆H₅COO⁻]/[C₆H₅COOH]

pH - pKa = log [C₆H₅COO⁻] - log [C₆H₅COOH]

log [C₆H₅COO⁻] = pH - pKa + log [C₆H₅COOH]

log [C₆H₅COO⁻] = 3.87 - (-log 6.5 × 10⁻⁵) + log 0.40

[C₆H₅COO⁻] = [NaC₆H₅COO] = 0.19 M

We can find the mass of NaC₆H₅COO using the following expression.

M = mass NaC₆H₅COO / molar mass NaC₆H₅COO × liters of solution

mass NaC₆H₅COO = M × molar mass NaC₆H₅COO × liters of solution

mass NaC₆H₅COO = 0.19 mol/L × 144.1032 g/mol × 1.5 L

mass NaC₆H₅COO = 41 g

2. What are the characteristics of an acid (at least 3)?
arlik [135]

Answer:Acids taste sour, react with metals, react with carbonates, and turn blue litmus paper red. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, do not react with carbonates and turn red litmus paper blue.

Explanation:

  • Sour taste (though you should never use this characteristic to identify an acid in the lab)
  • Reacts with a metal to form hydrogen gas.
  • Increases the H+ concentration in water.

Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s affinity for electrons. Which of the following statements is true? Electronegativity
jekas [21]

Answer: Electronegativity increases as the size of an atom decrease.

Explanation: Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom in a bond to attract electrons to itself.

Electronegativity increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Towards the left of the table, valence shells are less than half full, so these atoms (metals) tend

to lose electrons and have low electronegativity. Towards the right of the table, valence shells are more than half full, so these atoms (nonmetals) tend to gain electrons and have high electronegativity.

Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can’t attract electrons as strongly.

How do the properties of a compound compare to the properties of the elements that make it up? A. the properties of the compound
Rufina [12.5K]

A compound contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio. An element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom. Compounds contain different elements in a fixed ratio arranged in a defined manner through chemical bonds.
