<u>Ans: Acetic acid = 90.3 mM and Sodium acetate = 160 mM</u>
Given:
Acetic Acid/Sodium Acetate buffer of pH = 5.0
Let HA = acetic acid
A- = sodium acetate
Total concentration [HA] + [A-] = 250 mM ------(1)
pKa(acetic acid) = 4.75
Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
[A-]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(5-4.75) = 10^0.25 = 1.77
[A-] = 1.77[HA] -----(2)
From (1) and (2)
[HA] + 1.77[HA] = 250 mM
[HA] = 250/2.77 = 90.25 mM
[A-] = 1.77(90.25) = 159.74 mM
<span>A chemist adds 155.0ml of a 4.10 X 10^-5 mmol/L of a zinc oxalate (ZnC2O4)solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in micrograms of zinc oxalate the chemist has added to the flask.
1mmol = 10^-3 mol
Therefore 4.10*10^-5mmol = 4.10*10^-8mol
molar mass ZnC2O4 = 65.39+(2*12.011)+(4*15.99) = 153.372g/mol
You have 4.10*10^-8 mol/litre =153.372 * 4.10*10^-8 = 6.29*10^-6 grams / litre (* see below)
But you have 155ml. Mass of ZnC2O4 = 155/1000*6.29*10^-6 g
Mass is = 9.75*10^-7 grams
1µg = 10^-6 g
You then have 9.75*10^-7/10^-6 = 0.975µg ZnC2O4
(*see below) at this point you could have said:
1µg = 10^-6 g therefore you have a solution of 6.29µg per litre,
155ml = 6.29*155/1000 = 0.975µg ZnC2O4</span>
Answer:
For example, friction between our shoes and the floor stop us from slipping and friction between tyres and the road stop cars from skidding. Friction is sometimes unhelpful. For example, if you don't lubricate your bike regularly with oil, the friction in the chain and axles increases.
Explanation:
The metal is aluminium
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Heat, q = 4680 J
Mass, m = 100g = 0.1kg
ΔT = 52°C
sample = ?
We know:
q = mcΔT
On substituting the value we get:
Thus, the metal is aluminium which has a specific heat capacity of 900 J/kg°C
