The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus
Answer:
[Acetic acid] = 0.07 M
[Acetate] = 0.13 M
Explanation:
pH of buffer = 5
pKa of acetic acid = 4.76
![pH=p_{Ka} + log\frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3Dp_%7BKa%7D%20%2B%20log%5Cfrac%7B%5BSalt%5D%7D%7B%5BAcid%5D%7D)
Now using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation
![5=4.76 + log\frac{[Acetate]}{[Acetic\;acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5%3D4.76%20%2B%20log%5Cfrac%7B%5BAcetate%5D%7D%7B%5BAcetic%5C%3Bacid%5D%7D)
![log\frac{[Acetate]}{[Acetic\;acid]} = 0.24](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=log%5Cfrac%7B%5BAcetate%5D%7D%7B%5BAcetic%5C%3Bacid%5D%7D%20%3D%200.24)
....... (1)
It is given that,
[Acetate] + [Acetic acid] = 0.2 M ....... (2)
Now solving both the above equations
[Acetate] = 1.74[Acetic acid]
Substitute the concentration of acetate ion in equation (2)
1.74[Acetic acid] + [Acetic acid] = 0.2 M
[Acetic acid] = 0.2/2.74 = 0.07 M
[Acetate] = 0.2 - 0.07 = 0.13 M
The grams that would be produced from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol is 7.923grams
calculation
Step 1: write the chemical equation for the reaction
CH3CH2CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH → CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 +H2O
step 2: find the moles of butanoic acid
moles= mass/ molar mass
= 7.70 g/ 88 g/mol=0.0875 moles
Step 3: use the mole ratio to determine the moles of ethyl butyrate
moles ratio of CH3CH2CH2COOH :CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 is 1:1 therefore the moles of CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 = 0.0875 x78/100=0.0683moles
step 4: find mass = moles x molar mass
= 0.0683 moles x116 g/mol=7.923grams
