Answer:

0.034 M is the molarity of sodium acetate needed.

Explanation:

The pH of the buffer solution is calculated by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:  

pH = pK_a + \log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

Where:  

pK_a= Negative logarithm of the dissociation constant of a weak acid  

[Ac^-] = Concentration of the conjugate base  

[HA] = Concentration of the weak acid

According to the question:

HAc(aq)\rightleftharpoons Ac^-(aq)+H^+(aq)

The desired pH of the buffer solution = pH = 5.27

The pKa of acetic acid = 4.74

The molarity of acetic acid solution = [HAc] = 0.01 M

The molarity of acetate ion =[Ac^-] = ?

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:  

5.27= 4.74 + \log \frac{[Ac^-]}{[0.01 M]}

[Ac^-]=0.0339 M\approx 0.034M

Sodium acetate dissociates into sodium ions and acetate ions when dissolved in water.

NaAc(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+Ac^-(aq)\\

[Ac^-]=[Na^+]=[NaAc]= 0.034M

0.034 M is the molarity of sodium acetate needed.

When considering metal complexation with EDTA, if you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher ____________ will react wi
DENIUS [597]

If you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher <u>Number of free ions</u> will react with EDTA first

<h3>What is EDTA ?</h3>

EDTA is a type of chemical which binds certain metal ions such as calcium and magnesium. some of the functions of EDTA  includes:

  • Preventing blood clotting of blood samples
  • prevention of the formation of Biofilm by bacterias

The EDTA will readily react with metals which have a hiogher number of free ions that it can bind with.

Hence we can conclude that If you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher <u>Number of free ions</u> will react with EDTA first.

How the molecule’s properties affect the physical properties of a molecule
Lilit [14]

The intermolecular forces, such as hydrogen bonds or van der Waals attractions, which draw one molecule to its neighbors, govern a substance's physical properties. Due to the relatively weak intermolecular forces of attraction, molecular substances typically take the form of gases, liquids, or low melting point solids.

<h3>How do the intermolecular forces affect physical properties?</h3>

The forces that bind two molecules together are known as intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces have an impact on physical properties. Strong and weak forces both exist; the stronger the force, the more energy is needed to separate the molecules from one another. As intermolecular forces increase melting, boiling, and freezing points rise.

The following intermolecular forces are listed in order of strength:

  • Van der Waals dispersion forces
  • Van der Waals dipole-dipole interactions
  • Hydrogen bonding
  • Ionic bonds

It would take very little energy to separate two molecules if they are connected by van der Waals dispersion forces. On the other hand, it requires a lot more energy to separate two molecules that are joined together by ionic bonds.
