Answer

Protect your head and neck with a large book, a pillow, or your arms. The goal is to prevent injuries from falling down or from objects that might fall or be thrown at you.
If you are able, seek shelter under a sturdy table or desk. Stay away from outer walls, windows, fireplaces, and hanging objects.
If you are unable to move from a bed or chair, protect yourself from falling objects by covering up with blankets and pillows.
If you are outside, go to an open area away from trees, telephone poles, and buildings, and stay there.

Answer:

If you're indoors, stay inside. If you're outside, stay outside. If you're indoors, stand against a wall near the center of the building, stand in a doorway, or crawl under heavy furniture (a desk or table). Stay away from windows and outside doors.

Find the pH during the titration of 20.00 mL of 0.1000 M butanoic acid, CH3CH2CH2COOH (K a = 1.54 × 10 − 5), with 0.1000 M NaOH

Zina [86]

Here is the full question

Find the pH during the titration of 20.00 mL of 0.1000 M butanoic acid, CH3CH2CH2COOH (K a = 1.54 × 10 − 5), with 0.1000 M NaOH solution after the following additions of titrant (total volume of added base given):

a) 10.00 mL

pH = <u> </u>

b) 20.10 mL

pH = <u> </u>

c) 25.00 mL

pH = <u> </u>

<u />

Answer:

pH = 4.81

pH = 10.40

pH = 12.04

Explanation:

a)

Number of moles of butanoic acid

= $20.00 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL} * \frac{0.1000 \ mol}{ L}$

= 0.002000 mol

Number of moles of NaOH added

= $10.00 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL }* \frac{0.1000 \ mol }{L}$

= 0.001000 mol

pKa of butanoic acid = - log Ka

= - log ( 1.54 × 10⁻⁵)

= 4.81

Equation for the reaction is expressed as follows:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ -----> CH₃CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

The ICE Table is expressed as follows:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ -----> CH₃CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

Initial 0.002000 0.001000 0

Change - 0.001000 - 0.001000 + 0.001000

Equilibrium 0.001000 0 0.001000

Total Volume = (20.00 + 10.00 ) mL

= 30.00 mL = 0.03000 L

Concentration of [CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH] = $\frac{0.001000 \ mol}{ 0.03000 \ L }$

= 0.03333 M

Concentration of [CH₃CH₂COO⁻] = $\frac{0.001000 \ mol}{ 0.03000 \ L}$

= 0.03333 M

By Henderson- Hasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log $\frac{conjugate \ base}{acid }$

pH = pKa + log $\frac{CH_3CH_2CH_2COO^-}{CH_3CH_2CH_2COOH}$

PH = 4.81 + log $\frac{0.03333}{0.03333}$

pH = 4.81

Thus; the pH of the resulted buffer solution after 10.00 mL of NaOH was added = 4.81

b )

After the equivalence point, we all know that the pH of the solution will now definitely be determined by the excess H⁺

Number of moles of butanoic acid

= $20.00 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL} * \frac{0.1000 \ mol}{ L}$

= 0.002000 mol

Number of moles of NaOH added

= $20.10 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL} * \frac{0.1000 \ mol}{ L}$

= 0.002010 mol

Following the previous equation of reaction , The ICE Table for this process is as follows:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ -----> CH₃CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

Initial 0.002000 0.002010 0

Change - 0.002000 -0.002000 + 0.002000

Equilibrium 0 0.000010 0.002000

We can see here that the base is present in excess;

NOW, number of moles of base present in excess

= ( 0.002010 - 0.002000) mol

= 0.000010 mol

Total Volume = (20.00 + 20.10 ) mL

= 40.10 mL × $\frac{1 \ L}{1000 \ mL }$

= 0.04010 L

Concentration of acid [OH⁻] = $\frac{0.000010 \ mol}{0.04010 \ L }$

= $2.494*10^{-4} M$

Using the ionic product of water:

$[H_3O^+] = \frac{K \omega }{[OH^-]}$

where

$K \omega = 10^{-14}$

$[H_3O^+] = \frac{1.0*10^{-14}}{2.494*10^{-14}}$

= $4.0*10^{-11}M$

pH = - log $[H_3O^+}]$

pH = - log [ $4.0*10^{-11}M$ ]

pH = 10.40

Thus, the pH of the solution after the equivalence point = 10.40

c)

After the equivalence point, pH of the solution is determined by the excess H⁺.

Number of moles of butanoic acid

= $20.00 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL} * \frac{0.1000 \ mol}{ L}$

= 0.002000 mol

Number of moles of NaOH added

= $25.00 \ mL * \frac{L}{1000 \ mL} * \frac{0.1000 \ mol}{ L}$

= 0.002500 mol

From our chemical equation; The ICE Table can be illustrated as follows:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ -----> CH₃CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

Initial 0.002000 0.002500 0

Change - 0.002000 -0.002000 +0.002000

Equilibrium 0 0.000500 0.002000

Base is present in excess

Number of moles of base present in excess = [ 0.002500 - 0.002000] mol

= 0.000500 mol

Total Volume = ( 20.00 + 25.00 ) mL

= 45.00 mL

= 45.00 × $\frac{1 \ L}{1000 \ mL }$

= 0.04500 L

Concentration of acid [OH⁻] = $\frac{0.0005000 \ mol}{ 0.04500 \ L }$

= 0.01111 M

Using the ionic product of water $[H_3O^+] = \frac{K \omega }{[OH^+]}$

= $\frac{1.0*10^{-14}}{0.01111}$

= $9.0*10^{-13}$ M

pH = - log $[H_3O^+}]$

pH = - log [ $9.0*10^{-13}M$ ]

pH = 12.04

Thus, the pH of the solution after the equivalence point = 12.04

Give evidence to support or dispute: “In nature, the chance of finding one isotope of an element is the same for all elements.”

alekssr [168]

Answer:

False, isotopes have different occurrence percentages, so the changes are different.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since it is false that the isotopes of all the elements can be found with the same chance (occurrence) we can consider the following facts:

1. Carbon atom has two major occurring isotopes: C-12 (98.93%) and C-13 (1.07%).

2. Bromine atom has two major occurring isotopes: Br-79 (50.69%) and Br-81 (49.31%).

3. Calcium has four major occurring isotopes: Ca-40 (96.941%), Ca-42 (0.647%), Ca-43 (0.135%) and Ca-44 (2.086%).

Which show us that the chances of finding any isotope differ among elements.

Regards.
