Answer:

pH = 10.9

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to say that the undergoing reaction between this buffer and OH⁻ promotes the formation of more CO₃²⁻ because it acts as the base, we can do the following:

n_{CO_3^{2-}}=0.34mol/L*0.250L+0.0585mol=0.1435mol\\\\n_{HCO_3^{-}}=0.34mol/L*0.250L-0.0585mol=0.0265mol

The resulting concentrations are:

[CO_3^{2-}]=\frac{0.1435mol}{0.25L}=0.574M \\

[HCO_3^{-}]=\frac{0.0265mol}{0.25L}=0.106M

Thus, since the pKa of this buffer system is 10.2, the change in the pH would be:

pH=10.2+log(\frac{0.574M}{0.106M} )\\\\pH=10.9

Which makes sense since basic OH⁻ ions were added.

Regards!

the chemical compound C2F4 is used to make PTEE (Teflon). How manyC2F4 molecules are in 485 kilograms of this material?
monitta

Answer:

molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we use the Avogadro's number to compute the molecules of C2F4 whose molar mass is 100 g/mol contained in a 485-kg sample as shown below:

molecules=485kgC_2F_4*\frac{1000gC_2F_4}{1kgC_2F_4} *\frac{1molC_2F_4}{100gC_2F_4}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molecules C_2F_4}{1molC_2F_4}  \\\\molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4

Best regards,
