Calculate the ph of a dilute solution that contains a molar ratio of potassium acetate to acetic acid (pka ???? 4.76) of (a) 2:1

givi [52]

According to Hasselbach-Henderson equation:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}$

Here, $[A^{-}]$ is concentration of conjugate base and [HA] is concentration of acid.

In the given problem, conjugate base is $CH_{3}COOK$ and acid is $CH_{3}COOH$ thus, Hasselbach-Henderson equation will be as follows:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}$ ...... (1)

(a) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 2:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=2$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{2}{1}=5.06$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.06.

(b) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:3 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{3}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{3}=4.28$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.28.

(c)Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 5:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{5}{1}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{5}{1}=5.45$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.45.

(d) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=1$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{1}=4.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.76.

(e) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:10 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{10}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{10}=3.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 3.76.

Is vapor pressure and atmospheric pressure the same thing? If not, how?

Marat540 [252]

The air pressure is a measure of the pressure of the air. The vapour pressure of a liquid, say, water, is a function of its temperature and does not depend on the air pressure. ... Its vapour pressure is higher than atmospheric pressure so its temperature is higher than the boiling point of water.

quester [9]

An error in estimation could arise owing to;

1) Inaccurate measurement of the volumes of the solutions

2) When the reaction vessels are not properly cleaned

<h3>What is error in an experiment?</h3>

Error could occur in an experiment when values are misread. The error could be random error or a systematic error.

The major ways in which an error can occur in the estimation of concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar are;

1) Inaccurate measurement of the volumes of the solutions

2) When the reaction vessels are not properly cleaned

In the following reaction, identify the oxidized species, reduced species, oxidizing agent, and reducing agent. Be sure to answe

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer :

$Cl_2$ is reduced species.

$KI$ is oxidized species.

$Cl_2$ is oxidizing agent.

$KI$ is reducing agent.

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The balanced redox reaction is :

$Cl_2(aq)+2KI(aq)\rightarrow 2KCl(aq)+I_2(aq)$

The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:

Oxidation reaction : $2I^-\rightarrow I_2+2e^-$

Reduction reaction : $Cl_2^++2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl^-$

From this we conclude that the $'KI'$ is the reducing agent that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets oxidized and $'Cl_2'$ is the oxidizing agent that gain an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets reduced.

Thus, $Cl_2$ is reduced species.

$KI$ is oxidized species.

$Cl_2$ is oxidizing agent.

$KI$ is reducing agent.

A student has a solution of sodium nitrate and believes it is saturated. Which statement provides the best evidence that the sol

zheka24 [161]

It is easiest to tell if a solution is saturated if there is residue on the bottom. If it crystallized, the solution is saturated. If it is a supersaturated solution, there will not be crystallization unless more of the solute is added, at which point all of it will crystallize.
