Tris {(hoch2)3cnh2} is one of the most common buffers used in biochemistry. a solution is prepared by adding enough tris and 12

m hcl(aq) to give 1.00 l of solution with [tris] = 0.30 m and [trish+] = 0.60 m. what is the ph of this buffered system if the pkb is 5.92?

<u>Given:</u>

Buffer system : Tris/TrisH+

[Tris] = 0.30 M

[TrisH+] = 0.60 M

pKb = 5.92

<u>To determine:</u>

pH of the buffer

<u>Explanation:</u>

The pH of a buffer can be obtain using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log[Base]/[Acid]

In this case the conjugate base = [Tris]

Acid = [TrisH+]

Now, pKa = 14-pKa = 14-5.92 = 8.08

pH = 8.08 + log[0.30]/[0.60] = 7.778

Ans: pH of the buffer = 7.78

Given that,

The concentration of TRIS = 0.30 M

The concentration of TRIS+ = 0.60 M

Kb = 1.2 x 10^-6

pKb = -log Kb = - log (1.2 x 10^-6) = 5.920

Now, by using the Hendersonn equation,

pH = pKa + log TRIS+/TRIS = 5.920 + log (0.60/0.30) = 6.221

<span>pOH=14-pH=14-6.221 = 7.779</span>

What is the % dissociation of a solution of acetic acid if at equilibrium the solution has a pH = 4.74 and a pKa = 4.74?
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

\% diss = 50\%

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when considering weak acids which have an associated percent dissociation, we first need to set up the ionization reaction and the equilibrium expression:

HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-\\\\Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

Now, by introducing x as the reaction extent which also represents the concentration of both H+ and A-, we have:

Ka=\frac{x^2}{[HA]_0-x} =10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}

Thus, it is possible to find x given the pH as shown below:

x=10^{-pH}=10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}M

So that we can calculate the initial concentration of the acid:

\frac{(1.82x10^{-5})^2}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1.82x10^{-5}\\\\\frac{1.82x10^{-5}}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1\\\\

[HA]_0=3.64x10^{-5}M

Therefore, the percent dissociation turns out to be:

\% diss=\frac{x}{[HA]_0}*100\% \\\\\% diss=\frac{1.82x10^{-5}M}{3.64x10^{-5}M}*100\% \\\\\% diss = 50\%

Best regards!

MethaneProteinAlcohol can be found in beer, wine and liquor.
artcher [175]
The correct answer is alcohol. It is the common component in beer, wine and any liquor. Usually, alcohol is produced by fermentation of organic products containing glucose to produce alcohol, specifically ethanol, as the important product and the by-products water and carbon dioxide.

A sucrose solution is prepared to a final concentration of 0.250 M . Convert this value into terms of g/L, molality, and mass %.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

A. 85.6 g

= 0.0856 kg.

B. 0.00027 mol/g

= 0.27 mol/kg.

C. 8.39 %

Explanation:

Given:

Molar concentration = 0.25 M

Molar weight of sucrose = 342.296 g/mol

Density of solution = 1.02 g/mL

Mass of water = 934.4 g.

Density in g/l = 1.020 g/ml * 1000ml/1 l

= 1020 g/l

Mass of solution in 1 l of solution = 1020 g

Mass of solution = mass of solvent + mass of solute

Mass of sucrose = 1020 - 934.4

= 85.6 g of sucrose in 1 l of solution.

A.

Density of sucrose = mass/volume

= molar mass/molar concentration

= 342.296 * 0.25

= 85.6 g/l

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 85.6/342.296

= 0.25 mol

B.

Molality = number of moles of solute/mass of solvent

= 0.25/934.4

= 0.00027 mol/g

C.

% mass of sucrose = mass of sucrose/total mass of solution * 100

= 85.6/1020 * 100

= 8.39 %
