Answer:

0.084 M

Explanation:

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a buffer ( a buffer is solution contain a weak acid and it conjugate base; the solution resist change in pH)

pH = pKa + log ( base/acid)

4.9 - 4.76 =log ( base / acid)

10^0.14 =  ( base / acid)

1.38 = (base / acid)

since there is 0.2 M in the buffer solution

the concentration of acid =  \frac{1}{(1+1.38)} × 0.2 = 0.084 M

The original concentration of the acid solution is 6.175 \times 10^-4 mol / L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Concentration is the ratio of solute in a solution to either solvent or total solution. It is expressed in terms of mass per unit volume

                        HBr + NaOH -----> NaBr + H2O

There is a 1:1 equivalence with acid and base.

Moles of NaOH = 72.90 \times 10^-3 \times 0.25

                          = 0.0182 mol.

[ HBr ] = moles of base / volume of a solution

          = 0.0182 / 29.47

          = 6.175 \times 10^-4 mol / L.

Answer:

The combined mass of all the protons and electrons is 24.305.

Explanation:

From the information given about the atom, we can see that the relative atom mass of the element is 24.305.

The relative atomic mass of an atom is the combined mass of all its isotope in proportion of their geonormal abundances. On the periodic table, this mass deals with the amount of protons and neutrons present in a given atom.
