Equal molar quantities of Ca2 and EDTA (H4Y) are added to make a 0.010 M solution of CaY2- at pH 10. The formation constant for

CaY2- is 5.0 x 1010 and the fraction of unprotonated EDTA (Y4-) is 0.35 at pH10. Calculate the concentration of free Ca2 in this solution.

Answer:

the concentration of free Ca2⁺ in this solution is 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Ca^{2+ + y^{4- ⇄  CaY^{2-

Formation constant Kf

Kf = CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][y^{4-] ) = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

Now,

[y^{4-] = \alpha _4CH_4Y; ∝₄ = 0.35

so the equilibrium is;

Ca^{2+ + H_4Y ⇄  CaY^{2- + 4H⁺

Given that; CH_4Y = Ca^{2+     { 1 mol Ca^{2+  reacts with 1 mol H_4Y  }

so at equilibrium, CH_4Y = Ca^{2+ = x

∴

Ca^{2+ + y^{4- ⇄  CaY^{2-

x        + x         0.010-x

since Kf is high, them x will be small so, 0.010-x is approximately 0.010

so;

Kf = CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][y^{4-] ) =  CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][\alpha _4CH_4Y] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ CaY^{2- / ( [Ca^{2+][\alpha _4CH_4Y] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ 0.010 / ( [x][ 0.35 × x] )  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ 0.010 / 0.35x²  = 5.0 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 0.010 / ( 0.35 × 5.0 × 10¹⁰ )

⇒ x² = 0.010 / 1.75 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 0.010 / 1.75 × 10¹⁰

⇒ x² = 5.7142857 × 10⁻¹³

⇒ x = √(5.7142857 × 10⁻¹³)

⇒ x = 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Therefore, the concentration of free Ca2⁺ in this solution is 7.559 × 10⁻⁷

Which gas law (choices are Charles' Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, or Boyle's Law) explains each scenario:________.
posledela

Answer:

A.  Boyle's Law

B.  Charles' Law

C. Gay-Lussac's Law

Explanation:

An air bag inflates due to the decomposition of sodium azide or NaN₃ to completely fill the bag with nitrogen gas which is an example of Boyle's law, which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume, hence due to the estricted volume of the airbag, the pressure of the nitrogen gas in the bag increses protecting the occupants of a cr from injuries in a crash

Helium balloon decrease in sice in a freezer is an example of Charlles law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is nverslely proportionl to its temperature at constant pressure

A can of spray paint will explode if tossed into a fire is an example of Gay-Lussac's Law which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature hence the increased pressure causes the can ti explode

A sample of carbon dioxide is contained in a 250.0 mL flask at 0.930 atm and 15.4 °C. How many molecules of gas are in
Yanka [14]

Answer:

We are given:

Volume (V) = 0.25 L

Pressure (P) = 0.93 atm

Temperature (T) = 15.4°C  OR   288.4 K

<u>Solving for the number of moles of CO₂:</u>

From the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

replacing the variables

0.93 * 0.25 = n (0.082)(288.4)

n = 0.00983 moles

<u>Number of molecules:</u>

Number of moles=  0.00983

number of molecules in 1 mole = 6.022 * 10²³

Number of molecules in 0.00983 moles = 0.00983 * 6.022 * 10²³

Number of molecules = 5.91 * 10²¹
