Answer: DNA shapes how an organism grows up and the physiology of its blood, bone, and brains. DNA is thus especially important in the study of evolution . The amount of difference in DNA is a test of the difference between one species and another – and thus how closely or distantly related they are.

What concentrations of acetic acid (pKa = 4.76) and acetate would be required to prepare a 0.15 M buffer solution at pH 5.0? Not
Leni [432]

Answer:

Acetic acid 0,055M and acetate 0,095M.

Explanation:

It is possible to prepare a 0,15M buffer of acetic acid/acetate at pH 5,0 using Henderson-Hasselblach formula, thus:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻]/[HA] <em>-Where A⁻ is acetate ion and HA is acetic acid-</em>

Replacing:

5,0 = 4,76 + log₁₀ [A⁻]/[HA]

<em>1,7378 =  [A⁻]/[HA] </em><em>(1)</em>

As concentration of buffer is 0,15M, it is possible to write:

<em>[A⁻] + [HA] = 0,15M </em><em>(2)</em>

Replacing (1) in (2):

1,7378[HA] + [HA] = 0,15M

2,7378[HA] = 0,15M

[HA] = 0,055M

Thus, [A⁻] = 0,095M

That means you need <em>acetic acid 0,055M</em> and <em>acetate 0,095M</em> to obtain the buffer you need.

i hope it helps!

An equimolar mixture of acetone and ethanol is fed to an evacuated vessel and allowedto come to equilibrium at 65°C and 1.00 atm
frutty [35]

The question is incomplete, the table of the question is given below

Answer:

I) xA= 0.34, yA= 0.55

ii) 76.2 mole % vapor

iii) Percentage of vapor volume = 98%

Explanation:

i) xA= 0.34, yA= 0.55

 xA= 0.34, yA= 0.55

ii)      0.50 = 0.55 nv + 0.34 nL

     Therefore, nV =    0.762 mol vapor and nL = 0.238 mol liquid

This shows 76.2 mole % vapor

iii)  ρA= 0.791 g/cm3 and,  ρE = 0.789 g/cm3

Therefore, ρ = 0.790 g/cm3

Now, we have:

MA = 58.08 g/mol and ME= 46.07 g/mol

So Ml = (0.34 x 58.08)+[(1 -0.34) x 46.07] = 50.15 g/mol

1 mol liquid = (0.762 mol vapor/0.238 mol liquid) = 3.2 mol vapor

Liquid volume = Vl= [1 mol x (50.15 g/mol)] / (0.790 g/cm3) = 63.48 cm3

Vapour volume = Vv = 3.2 mol x(22400 cm3/mol) x [(65+273)/273] = 88747 cm3

Therefore, percentage of vapour volume = 88747 / (88747+63.48) = 99.9 %

(a) Given that Ka for acetic acid is 1.8 X 10^-5 and that for hypochlorous acid is 3.0 X 10^-8, which is the stronger acid? (b)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

HOAc is stronger acid than HClO

ClO⁻ is stronger conjugate base than OAc⁻

Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷

Explanation:

Assume 0.10M HOAc => H⁺ + OAc⁻  with Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

=> [H⁺] = √Ka·[Acid] =√(1.8 x 10⁻⁵)(0.10) M = 1.3 x 10⁻³M H⁺

Assume 0.10M HClO => H⁺ + ClO⁻ with Ka = 3 x 10⁻⁸

=> [H⁺] = √(3 x 10⁻⁸)(0.10)M = 5.47 x 10⁻⁵M H⁺

HOAc delivers more H⁺ than HClO and is more acidic.

Kb = Kw/Ka, Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷
