What is the pH when 10.0 mL of 0.20 M potassium hydroxide is added to 30.0 mL of 0.10 M cinnamic acid, HC9H7O2 (Ka = 3.6 × 10–5)
astra-53 [7]

Answer:-

Solution:- As is clear from the given Ka value, Cinnamic acid is a weak acid. let's calculate the moles of acid and KOH added to it from their given molarities and mL.

For KOH,  10.0mL(\frac{1L}{1000mL})(\frac{0.20mol}{1L})

= 0.002 mol

For Cinnamic acid,  30.0mL(\frac{1L}{1000mL})(\frac{0.10mol}{1L})

= 0.003 mol

Acid and base react as:

HC_9H_7O_2(aq)+KOH(aq)\rightleftharpoons KC_9H_7O_2(aq)+H_2O(l)

The reaction takes place in 1:1 mol ratio. Since the moles of acid are in excess, the acid is still remaining when all the kOH is used.

0.002 moles of KOH react with 0.002 moles of Cinnamic acid to form 0.002 moles of potassium cinnamate. Excess moles of Cinnamic acid = 0.003 - 0.002 = 0.001

As the solution have weak acid and it's salt(or we could say conjugate base), it is a buffer solution and the pH of the buffer solution could easily be calculated using Handerson equation:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{base}{acid})

pKa could be caluted from given Ka value using the formula:

pKa = - log Ka

pKa=-log3.6*10^-^5

pKa = 4.44

let's plug in the values in Handerson equation and calculate the pH:

pH=4.44+log(\frac{0.002}{0.001})

pH = 4.44+0.30

pH = 4.74

So, the first choice is correct, pH is 4.74.

In the formation of potassium chloride, the product, KCl, has less energy than the reactants, K and Cl2. This reaction is .
k0ka [10]

if the product has lesser energy than the reactants it means enthalpy change value is positive.so it is endothermic reaction where the heat is absorbed.so kcl will formation will have positive enthalpy change .

A 70.0-g piece of copper metal at 54.0 °C is placed in 50.0 g of water at 26.0 °C. If the final temperature of the water and met
KatRina [158]

The specific heat in, J /g °C of copper is 0.386J/g°C

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY OF A SUBSTANCE:

  • The specific capacity of a substance can be calculated using the following formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat absorbed or released (J)

m = mass of substance (g)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

For a colorimeter, the following equation applies:

m.c.∆T (water) = - m.c.∆T (metal)

  • For water:

m = 50g

c = 4.184 J/g°C

∆T = 29.2 - 26°C = 3.2°C

  • For copper:

m = 70g

c = ?

∆T = 29.2 - 54°C = -24.8°C

m.c.∆T (water) = - m.c.∆T (metal)

50 × 4.184 × 3.2 = -(70 × c × -24.8)

669.44 = 1736c

c = 669.44 ÷ 1736

c = 0.386J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat in, J /g °C of copper is 0.386J/g°C
