An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg of sodium phenate. What is the ph of the solution. The pka of phenol = 9.98. Mw of phenol and sodium phenate are 94 g/mol and 116 g/mol, respectively.
Volume of solution = 55 gallons = 208.2 L [ 1 gallon = 3.78 L]
moles of phenol = mass / molar mass = 4000 g / 94 = 42.55 moles
moles of sodium phenate = mass / molar mass = 1500 / 116 = 12.93 moles
pKa of phenol = 9.98
We know that the pH of buffer is calculated using Hendersen Hassalbalch's equation
pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]
volume is same for both the sodium phenate and phenol has we can directly take the moles of each in the formula
pH = 9.98 + log [12.93 / 42.55] = 9.46
Answer:
B
Explanation:
When water is at the surface of the ground, it evaporates and goes back to the clouds for which causes it to rain therefore returning water back.
<h3>Al + O2 -> Al2O3</h3>
Balance it:
<h3>2Al + 3O2 -> 2Al2O3</h3><h3 />
So you need 2 Al and 3 O2 to make 2 Al2O3 (aluminum oxide).
I'm going to assume you have all the O2 you need.
Since 2 mols of Al is needed to make 2 mols of the product, it's a 1:1 ratio. You get as much aluminum oxide for as much aluminum you burn.
So 12.5 mols if there is not a lack of the O2.
Answer:
Conducts electricity
Explanation:
an acid or base which strongly conducts electricity contains a large number of ions and is called a strong acid or base and an acid or base which conducts electricity only weakly contains a few ions and his called a weaker acid base
