Answer:
pH = 8.0
Explanation:
First, we have to calculate the moles of NaOH.
Let's consider the balanced equation.
C₂H₄O₃ + NaOH ⇒ C₂H₃O₃Na + H₂O
The molar ratio C₂H₄O₃: NaOH: C₂H₃O₃Na is 1: 1: 1. So, when 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of NaOH react completely with 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of C₂H₄O₃ they form 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of C₂H₃O₃Na.
The concentration of C₂H₃O₃Na is:
C₂H₃O₃Na dissociates according to the following equation:
C₂H₃O₃Na(aq) ⇒ C₂H₃O₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq)
C₂H₃O₃⁻ comes from a weak acid so it undergoes basic hydrolisis.
C₂H₃O₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ C₂H₄O₃ + OH⁻
If we know that pKa for C₂H₄O₃ is 3.9, we can calculate pKb for C₂H₃O₃⁻ using the following expression:
pKa + pKb = 14
pKb = 14 -3.9 = 10.1
10.1 = -log Kb
Kb = 7.9 × 10⁻¹¹
We can calculate [OH⁻] using the following expression:
[OH⁻] = √(Kb.Cb) <em>where Cb is the initial concentration of the base</em>
[OH⁻] = √(7.9 × 10⁻¹¹ × 0.012M) = 9.7 × 10⁻⁷ M
Now, we can calculate pOH and pH.
pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log (9.7 × 10⁻⁷) = 6.0
pH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 6.0 = 8.0
Answer:
Total pressure 5.875 atm
Explanation:
The equation for above decomposition is
rate constant
Half life
Initial pressure
Pressure after 3572 min = P
According to first order kinematics
solving for P we get
P = 2.35 atm
initial 4.70 0 0
change -2x +2x +x
final 4.70 -2x 2x x
pressure of after first half life = 2.35 = 4.70 - 2x
x = 1.175
pressure of after first half life = 2x = 2(1.175) = 2.35 ATM
Total pressure = 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.175
= 5.875 atm
