The HCl added = 1.25 moles

and the moles of Na2HPO4 = 1 mole

Now when acid is added in the given solution of Na2HPO4

One mole of H+ will react with one mole of Na2HPO4 to given one mole of NaH2PO4

Na2HPO4  + H+  ---> NaH2PO4

Now this one mole formed NaH2PO4 will further react with 0.25 moles of H+ left to form 0.25 moles of  H3PO4 and 0.75 moles of NaH2PO4 will remain in the solution

So this will result into formation of a buffer of phosphoric acid and NaH2PO4

NaH2PO4  + H+  ---> H3PO4

pKa of H3PO4 = 2.1

so pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid] = 2.1 + log [0.75 / 0.25] = 2.58

so the pH will be in between 2.1 to 7.2

How do you calculate the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an element?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The first thing you will need to do is find some information about your element. Go to the Periodic Table of Elements and click on your element. If it makes things easier, you can select your element from an alphabetical listing.

Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

Explanation:

hope this helps, have a good day :-)

In an experiment magnesium ribbon was heated in air. The product was found to be heavier than the original ribbon. Potassium man
KatRina [158]

Burning a magnesium ribbon in the air is an addition reaction while heating potassium manganate 7 is a decomposition reaction.

<h3>Addition and decomposition reactions</h3>

Magnesium burns in air to produce magnesium oxide as follows:

2Mg + O_2 --- > 2MgO

Potassium manganate 7 burns to produce multiple products as follows:

2 KMnO_4 --- > K_2MnO_4 + MnO_2(s) + O_2

Thus, the MgO will be heavier than Mg. On the other hand, MnO_2 will be less heavy than KMnO_4.

A sample of a gas at 25°C has a volume of 150 mL when its pressure is 0.947 atm. What will the temperature of the gas be at a pr
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: The temperature of the gas at a pressure of  0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is 25.16^0C

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 0.947 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 0.987 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 150 ml

V_2 = final volume of gas = 144 ml    

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 25^0C=(25+273.15)K=298.15K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{0.947\times 150}{298.15}=\frac{0.987\times 144}{T_2}

T_2=298.31K=(298.31-273.15)^0C=25.16^0C

The temperature of the gas at a pressure of  0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is 25.16^0C

What is the characteristic of the polar water molecule?
NikAS [45]

A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule. That is, it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged. The molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The bonds between the atoms are called covalent bonds, because the atoms share electrons.
