You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 4.97. You already have a solution that contains 10. mmol (millimoles) of

acetic acid. How many millimoles of acetate (the conjugate base of acetic acid) will you need to add to this solution?

Answer:

16.9 mmoles are needed to add to the solution

Explanation:

To solve this, we can apply the Henderson Hasselbach equation:

Acetic acid → CH₃COOH

CH₃COOH  +  H₂O  ⇄  CH₃COO⁻   +  H₃O⁺             Ka

That is the acid base equilibrium, to determine the amount:

pKa of acetic acid is 4.74

Henderson Hasselbach formula is:

pH = pKa + log (base/acid)

We replace  →  4.97 = 4.74 + log (B / 10mmoles)

Let's verify mmoles of B

4.97 - 4.74 = log (B/10)

0.23 =  log (B/10)

10^(0.23) = 10^(log (B/10)

1.698 = B/10

B = 1.698 . 10 → 16.9 mmoles

Allisa [31]

The prediction is that B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

<h3>What is zinc?</h3>

This is known as a chemical element, of the periodic table, that is essential to life and is one of the most widely used metals. Zinc is of considerable commercial importance.

Without the salt bridge, positive and negative charges will build up around the electrodes causing the reaction to stop.

Hence, we know that the purpose of the salt bridge is to keep the solutions electrically neutral and allow the free flow of ions from one cell to another.
