How many liters of water do we need to add to 5.00 moles to get a 0.648 M solution?
Tanya [424]

Answer: This is a typical acid/base equilibrium problem, that involves the use of logarithms.

Explanation:We assume that both nitric acid and hydrochloric acid dissociate to give stoichiometric

H

3

O

+

.

Moles of nitric acid:

26.0

−

⋅

L

8.00

L

=

.

And, moles of hydrochloric acid:

88.0

5.00

L

⋅

m

H

C

l

(

q

)

.

This molar quantity is diluted to

1.00

L

. Concentration in moles/Litre =

(

0.208

0.440

)

⋅

m

o

l

L

=

0.648

⋅

L

.

Now we know that water undergoes autoprotolysis:

H

O

(

⇌

H

+

O

H

−

. This is another equilibrium reaction, and the ion product

[

H

[

O

H

]

=

K

w

. This constant,

K

w

=

−

at

So

[

H

=

[

=

[

H

=

0.648

p

H

=

log

[

H

=

(

=

?

Alternatively, we know further that

p

H

p

H

=

. Once you have

p

H

,

p

O

H

is easy to find. Take the antilogarithm of this to get

[

O

H

−

]

.

leva [86]

Answer:

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer?</em>

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. TRUE. The conjugate base neutralizes the excess of hydrogen protons.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE.

c. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. FALSE. This is a basic buffer solution.

d. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. FALSE. The weak acid will react with the hydroxyl ions from the added base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. TRUE. These hydrogen protons will form water.

f. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. FALSE. It will accept hydrogen protons.
