What is the pH of a solution that is 0.40 M NaBrO and 0.50 M HBrO (hypobromous acid) (Ka for HBrO = 2.3 x 10^-9)

Pie

Answer

pH=8.5414

Procedure

The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a chemical solution of a weak acid to the numerical value of the acid dissociation constant, Kₐ. In this equation, [HA] and [A⁻] refer to the equilibrium concentrations of the conjugate acid-base pair used to create the buffer solution.

pH = pKa + log₁₀ ([A⁻] / [HA])

Where

pH = acidity of a buffer solution

pKa = negative logarithm of Ka

Ka =acid disassociation constant

[HA]= concentration of an acid

[A⁻]= concentration of conjugate base

First, calculate the pKa

pKa=-log₁₀(Ka)= 8.6383

Then use the equation to get the pH (in this case the acid is HBrO)

$pH=8.6383+\log_{10}(\frac{0.40\text{ M}}{0.50\text{ M}})=8.5414$

For the following reaction, 9.30 grams of glucose (C6H12O6) are allowed to react with 13.8 grams of oxygen gas. glucose (C6H12O6

amid [387]

Answer:

13.7 g of CO₂

Limiting reactant: C₆H₁₂O₆

3.81 g of O₂

Explanation:

We convert the mass of the reactants to moles, in order to find out the limiting reactant and the excess reagent

9.30 g / 180 g/mol = 0.052 moles of glucose

13.8 g / 32 g/mol = 0.431 moles of oxygen

The equation is: C₆H₁₂O₆(s) + 6O₂ (g) → 6CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)

Ratio is 1:6. Let's consider this rule of three:

1 mol of glucose reacts with 6 moles of oxygen

Then, 0.052 moles of glucose must react with (0.052 . 6) /1 = 0.312 moles

We have 0.431 moles of oxygen and we only need 0.312 moles. This means that an amount of oxygen still remains after the reaction is complete:

0.431 - 0.312 = 0.119 moles. We convert the moles to mass:

0.119 mol . 32 g / 1mol = 3.81 g

In conclussion, the limiting reactant is the glucose.

6 moles of oxygen react with 1 mol of glucose

0.431 moles of O₂ will react with (0.431 . 1) /6 = 0.072 moles of glucose

We only have 0.052 moles, so it is ok to say, that glucose is the limiting cause we do not have enough glucose.

Let's verify, the maximum amount of carbon dioxide that can be formed:

1 mol of glucose can produce 6 moles of CO₂

Therefore 0.052 moles of glucose will produce (0.052 . 6) /1 = 0.312 moles

We convert the moles to mass → 0.312 mol . 44 g /1 mol = 13.7 g

What generates electricity

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. Other energy sources include solar photovoltaics and geothermal power.
