Answer:

Mole fraction of alcohols in liquid phase x_1=0.2727\& x_2=0.7273.

Mole fraction of alcohols in vapor phase y_1=0.1468\& y_2=0.8516.

Explanation:

The total vapor pressure of the solution = p =38.6 Torr

Partial vapor pressure of the  n-propyl alcohol =p^{o}_1=21.0 Torr

Partial vapor pressure of the isopropyl alcohol =p^{o}_2=45.2 Torr

p=x_1\times p^{o}_1+x_2\times p^{o}_2  (Raoult's Law)

p=x_1\times p^{o}_1+(1-x_1)\times p^{o}_2

38.6 Torr=x_1\times 21.0 Torr+(1-x_1)\times 45.2 Torr

x_1=0.2727

x_2=1-0.2727=0.7273

x_1\& x_2 is mole fraction in liquid phase.

Mole fraction of components in vapor phase y_1\& y_2

p_1=y_1\times p (Dalton's law of partial pressure)

y_1=\frac{p_1}{38.6 Torr}=\frac{p^{o}_1\times x_1}{38.6 Torr}

y_1=\frac{21.0 Torr\times 0.2727}{38.6 Torr}=0.1468

y_1=\frac{p_2}{38.6 Torr}=\frac{p^{o}_2\times x_2}{38.6 Torr}

y_2=\frac{45.2 Torr\times 0.7273}{38.6 Torr}=0.8516

Mole fraction of alcohols in vapor phase y_1=0.1468\& y_2=0.8516

Which layer is the oldest layer? How can you tell? ​
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The principle of superposition states that the oldest rock units are at rock bottom , and therefore the youngest are at the highest . Based on this, layer C is oldest, followed by B and A. So the full sequence of events is as follows: Layer C formed.

A formic acid buffer solution contains 0. 20 m h c o o h hcooh and 0. 24 m h c o o − hcoox−. the pka of formic acid is 3. 75. wh
irina1246 [14]

A buffer solution contains an equivalent amount of acid and base. The pH of the solution with an acid dissociation constant (pKa) value of 3.75 is 3.82.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

The amount of hydrogen or the proton ion in the solution is expressed by the pH. It is given by the sum of pKa and the log of the concentration of acid and bases.

Given,

Concentration of salt [HCOO⁻] = 0.24 M

Concentration of acid [HCOOH] = 0.20 M

The acid dissociation constant (pKa) = 3.75

pH is calculated from the Hendersons equation as,

pH = pKa + log [salt] ÷ [acid]

pH = 3.75 + log [0.24] ÷ [0.20]

= 3.75 + log (1.2)

= 3.75 + 0.079

= 3.82

Therefore, 3.82 is the pH of the buffer.
