Because plastic products are durable, they can last for a long time. This makes them affordable because they do not have to be replaced often. On the other hand, the popular use of plastics means that many plastics are thrown away. Plastics litter the ocean, causing harm to marine birds and mammals. Plastic breaks down into plastic dust, which can last for up to a thousand years.

What is the pH of a mixture of 0.042 M NaH2PO4 and 0.058 M Na2HPO4? Hint: The pKa of phosphate is 6.86.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The pH value of the mixture will be 7.00

Explanation:

Mono and disodium hydrogen phosphate mixture act as a buffer to maintain pH value around 7. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation is used to determine the pH value of a buffer mixture, which is mathematically expressed as,

pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Base]}{[Acid]})

According to the given conditions, the equation will become as follow

pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Na_{2}HPO_{4} ]}{[NaH_{2}PO_{4}]})

The base and acid are assigned by observing the pKa values of both the compounds; smaller value means more acidic. NaH₂PO₄ has a pKa value of 6.86, while Na₂HPO₄ has a pKa value of 12.32 (not given, but it's a constant). Another more easy way is to the count the acidic hydrogen in the molecular formula; the compound with more acidic hydrogens will be assigned acidic and vice versa.

Placing all the given data we obtain,

pH=6.86 + log(\frac{0.058}{0.042})

pH=7.00

A mixture of gases at a total pressure of 95 kPa contains N₂, CO₂, and O₂. The partial pressure of the CO₂ is 24 kPa and the par
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

23 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

Explanation:

In a mixture of gases, the sum of partial pressure of each gas that contains the mixture = Total pressure

Total pressure = Partial pressure N₂ + Partial pressure CO₂ + Partial pressure O₂

95 kPa = 48 kPa + 24 kPa + Partial pressure O₂

95 kPa - 48 kPa - 24 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

23 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

A solution is made by combining 500 mL of 0.10 M HF (Ka=7.2 x 10^-4) with 300 mL of 0.15 M NaF. What is the pH of the resulting
n200080 [17]

Answer:

b) 3.10

Explanation:

HF ⇄ H + + F

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

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

Where;

pKa = Dissociation constant = -log Ka

Hence, pKa of HF = -log 7.2 x 10^-4 = 3.14266

[A-] = concentration of conjugate base after dissociation = moles of base/total volume

          = 0.15 x 0.3/0.8

               = 0.05625 M

[HA] = concentration of the acid = moles of acid/total volume

             = 0.10 x 0.5/0.8

                    = 0.0625 M

Note: <em>Total volume = 500 + 300 = 800 mL = 0.8 dm3</em>

pH = 3.14266 + log [0.05625/0.0625]

      = 3.14267 + (-0.04575749056)

           = 3.09691250944

<em>From all the available options below:</em>

<em>a) 2.97 </em>

<em>b) 3.10 </em>

<em>c) 3.19 </em>

<em>d) 3.22 </em>

<em>e) 3.32</em>

The correct option is b.
