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>

At which type of tectonic plate boundary is a volcano least likely to occur?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

A divergent boundary is when the plates move apart from each other. When the plates part, magma from under either plate rises and forms a volcano. A hotspot is the third place a volcano can form. This particular type is the least common.

How many moles are in 4.3 x 10 ^22 molecules of Na3PO4
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

0.071 moles of Na₃PO₄ .

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of Na₃PO₄ = 4.3× 10²² molecules

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

4.3× 10²² molecules × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.71× 10⁻¹ mol

0.071 mol

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

"It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance"
