How many grams of NaF should be added to 500 mL of a 0.100 M solution of HF to make a buffer with a pH of 3.2

Answer:

2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2

Explanation:

The mixture of a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF), produce a buffer. To find the pH of a buffer we must use H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer that you want = 3.2, pKa is the pKa of HF = 3.17, and [] could be taken as the moles of A-, the conjugate base (NaF) and the weak acid, HA, (HF). </em>

The moles of HF are:

500mL = 0.500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.0500 moles HF

Replacing:

3.2 = 3.17 + log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

0.03 = log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

1.017152 = [A-] / [0.0500moles]

[A-] = 0.0500mol * 1.017152

[A-] = 0.0536 moles NaF

The mass could be obtained using the molar mass of NaF (41.99g/mol):

0.0536 moles NaF * (41.99g/mol) =

<h3>2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2</h3>

What is the formula ofchromium(III) hydrogensulfate?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Cr (HSO4)3

Explanation:

its molecular weight is 343.20 g/mol

its molecular formula can also be written as CrH3O12S3

molar mass of Cr (HSO4)3 can be calculated by following method;

atomic mass of Cr = 51.9961 u

atomic mass of H = 1 u

atomic mass of S = 32.065 u

atomic mass of O = 16 u

molar mass of Cr(HSO4)3 =  51.9961+ 1.00784×3 + 32.065×3 + 15.999×12

molar mass of Cr(HSO4)3 =51.9961+3.02352+96.195+ 191.988

molar mass of Cr(HSO4)3 = 343.20 g/mol

The ________ ion is represented by the electron configuration [ar]3d2.
Tresset [83]
The Ti 2+ ions is  represented  by  electron  configuration  (Ar)3d2. Titanium is in  atomic  number  22  and  its  electronic  configuration  is  (Ar)3d2 4s2.  Titanium loss two  electron that  is  4s2 electrons  hence the  electronic  configuration ( Ar)3d2.  4s2 is  the  valence electron  hence  it   the  one   which  is  lost  to  form  Ti2+

pH of solution = 13.033

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

2.31 g Ba(OH)₂

250 ml water

Required

pH of solution

Solution

Barium hydroxide is fully ionized, means that Ba(OH)₂ is a strong base

So we use a strong base formula to find the pH

[OH ⁻] = b. Mb where

b = number of OH⁻ /base valence

Mb = strong base concentration

Molarity of Ba(OH)₂(MW=171.34 g/mol) :

\tt M=\dfrac{mol}{L}=\dfrac{2.31~g\div 171.34~g/mol}{0.25~L}\\\\M=0.054

Ba(OH)₂ ⇒ Ba²⁺ + 2OH⁻(b=valence=2)

[OH⁻]= 2 . 0.054

[OH⁻] = 0.108

pOH= - log 0.108

pOH=0.967

pOH+pH=14

pH=14-0.967

pH=13.033
