the ionization constant, Ka, for and indicator, HIn, is 1.0x10^-8. The color of the unionized form is red and the color of the i

onized form is yellow. What is the color of the indicator in a solution whose pH is 4.6? (Hint: the color of an indicator can be estimated by considering the ratio of [HIn]/[In]. If the ratio is equal to or greater than 10, the color will be that of the unionized form. If the ratio is equal to or smaller than 0.1, the color will be that of the ionized form.

What is the ph of a buffer prepared by adding 0.809 mol of the weak acid ha to 0.608 mol of naa in 2.00 l of solution? The disso
Anarel [89]

The pH of the buffer is 6.1236.

Explanation:

The strength of any acid solution can be obtained by determining their pH. Even the buffer solution strength of the weak acid can be determined using pH. As the dissociation constant is given, we can determine the pKa value as the negative log of dissociation constant value.

pKa=-log[H] = - log [ 5.66 * 10^{-7}]\\ \\pka = 7 - log (5.66)=7-0.753=6.247\\\\pka = 6.247

The pH of the buffer can be known as

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

The concentration of [A^{-}] = Moles of [A]/Total volume = 0.608/2 = 0.304 M\\

Similarly, the concentration of [HA] = \frac{Moles of HA}{Total volume} = \frac{0.809}{2} = 0.404

Then the pH of the buffer will be

pH = 6.247 + log [ 0.304/0.404]

pH = 6.247 + log 0.304 - log 0.404=6.247-0.517+0.3936=6.1236

So, the pH of the buffer is 6.1236.

In the reaction below, how many grams of h2o(g) are produced when 2.1 grams o2(g) are consumed? c4h6(g) + o2(g) → co2(g) + h2o(g
amm1812
The balanced equation that illustrates the reaction is:
2C4H6 + 11O2 ......> 8CO2 + 6H2O 

number of moles = mass / molar mass 
number of moles of oxygen = 2.1 / 32 = 0.065625 moles

Now, from the balanced equation, we can note that:
11 moles of oxygen are required to produce 6 moles of water.
Therefore:
0.065625 moles of oxygen will produce:
(0.065625*6) / 11 = 0.03579 moles of water

number of moles = mass / molar mass
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of water = 0.03579 * 18 = 0.644 grams
