You decided to prepare a phosphate buffer from solid sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4) and disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2H

PO4)and you need 1L of the buffer at pH 7.00 with a total phosphate concentration(NaH2PO4+ Na2HPO4) of 0.100 M. Hint:Phosphoric acid (H3PO4), a triprotic acid, has 3 pKa values: 2.14, 6.86, and12.4. Determine the weight in grams of sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4;138g/mol) and disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4;142g/mol) needed to prepare this buffer.

Answer:

For disodium hydrogen phosphate:

5.32g Na2HPO4

For sodium dihydrogen phosphate:

7.65g Na2HPO4

Explanation:

First, you have to put all the data from the problem that you going to use:

-NaH2PO4 (weak acid)

-Na2HPO4 (a weak base)

-Volume = 1L

-Buffer pH = 7.00

-Concentration of [NaH2PO4 + Na2HPO4] = 0.100 M

What we need to find the pKa of the weak acid, in this case NaH2PO4, for that you need to find the Ka (acid constant) of NaH2PO4, and for this we use the pKa of the phosphoric acid as follow:

H3PO4 = H2PO4 + H+    pKa1 = 2.14

H2PO4 = HPO4 + H+       pKa2 = 6.86

HPO4 = PO4 + H+      pKa3 = 12.4

So, for the preparation of buffer, you need to use the pKa that is near to the value of the pH that you want, so the choice will be:

pKa2= 6.86

Now we going to use the Henderson Hasselbalch equation for the pH of a buffer solution:

pH = pKa2 + log [(NaH2PO4)/(Na2HPO4)]

The solution of the problem is attached to this answer.

8. How do you know when kinetic energy is not changing?
Nostrana [21]
Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion so to figure out that it’s not changing is if the object is still moving. If it’s staying still or is at rest, it is presenting potential energy, which is when energy is being stored inside the object.

If you have 16 g of manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate, how much water is required to prepare 0.16 M solution from this amount
Schach [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of water required to prepare given amount of salt is 398.4 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of solution, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

We are given:

Molarity of solution = 0.16 M

Given mass of manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate = 16 g

Molar mass of manganese (II) nitrate tetrahydrate = 251 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.16M=\frac{16\times 1000}{251\times \text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{16\times 1000}{251\times 0.16}=398.4mL

Volume of water = Volume of solution = 398.4 mL

Hence, the amount of water required to prepare given amount of salt is 398.4 mL

8.) If 396 g of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) are produced, what mass of Oxygen<br> (02) reacted? *
Brut [27]

Answer:

264g

Explanation:

C + O2 -> CO2

_g + _g -> 396g

396÷3=132

C (132g) + O2 (264g) -> CO2 (396g)
