What volume of 0.307 m naoh must be added to 200.0ml of 0.425m acetic acid (ka = 1.75 x 10-5 ) to produce a buffer of ph = 4.250
Blababa [14]

The buffer solution target has a pH value smaller than that of pKw (i.e., pH < 7.) The solution is therefore acidic. It contains significantly more protons \text{H}^{+} than hydroxide ions \text{OH}^{-}. The equilibrium equation shall thus contain protons rather than a combination of water and hydroxide ions as the reacting species.

Assuming that x \; \text{L} of the 0.307 \text{mol} \cdot \text{dm}^{-3} sodium hydroxide solution was added to the acetic acid. Based on previous reasoning, x is sufficiently small that acetic acid was in excess, and no hydroxide ion has yet been produced in the solution. The solution would thus contain 0.2000 \times 0.425 - 0.307 \; x = 0.085 - 0.307 \; x moles of acetic acid and 0.307 \; x moles of acetate ions.

Let \text{HAc} denotes an acetic acid molecule and \text{Ac}^{-} denotes an acetate ion. The RICE table below resembles the hydrolysis equilibrium going on within the buffer solution.

\begin{array}{lccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\end{array}

The buffer shall have a pH of 4.250, meaning that it shall have an equilibrium proton concentration of 10^{4.250}\; \text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3}. There were no proton in the buffer solution before the hydrolysis of acetic acid. Therefore the table shall have an increase of 10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3} in proton concentration in the third row. Atoms conserve. Thus the concentration increase of protons by 10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3} would correspond to a decrease in acetic acid concentration and an increase in acetate ion concentration by the same amount. That is:

\begin{array}{lcccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\text{C} & - 10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} \\\text{E} & 0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x& & 10^{-4.250} & & 10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x\end{array}

By definition:

\text{K}_{a} = [\text{H}^{+}] \cdot [\text{Ac}^{-}] / [\text{HAc}]\\\phantom{\text{K}_{a}} = 10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x)

The question states that

\text{K}_{a} = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}

such that

10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x) = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}\\6.16 \times 10^{-5} \; x = 1.48 \times 10^{-6}\\x = 0.0241

Thus it takes 0.0241 \; \text{L} of sodium hydroxide to produce this buffer solution.

cluponka [151]
Plants can reproduce through either sexual or asexual means. Sexual reproduction involves pollination helped by wind and or insects. Asexual reproduction involves tubers, bulbs and runners known as rhizomes and stolons as well as cuttings taken by humans.

Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of solid palmitic acid. Remember that oxygen (O2(g)) is necessary for the
Alina [70]

Answer:

C₁₆H₃₂O₂ (s) + 22O₂(g) → 16CO₂(g) + 16H₂O(g)

Explanation:

In order to determine a combustion reaction we should know that:

Reactants are: X compound and O₂

Products are: CO₂ and H₂O

In this case, the X compound is the solid palmitic acid: C₁₆H₃₂O₂

The balanced equation will be:

C₁₆H₃₂O₂ (s) + 22O₂(g) → 16CO₂(g) + 16H₂O(g)
