A buffer solution is composed of 7.50 mol of acid and 4.75 mol of the conjugate base. If the pKa of the acid is 4.90 , what is t

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is: pH= 4.70

Explanation:

We use the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach equation</em> in order to calculate the pH of a buffer solution:

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

Given:

pKa= 4.90

[conjugate base]= 4.75 mol

[acid]= 7.50 mol

We calculate pH as follows:

pH = 4.90 + log (4.75 mol/7.50 mol) = 4.90 + (-0.20) = 4.70

Explain why there was a reaction between zinc metal and a salt solution of copper sulphate please help me

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

When zinc is added to copper sulphate (CUSO4) solution due to more reactivity of zinc, cooper is replaced by the zinc and forms zinc sulphate. During the process, the colour of the solution changes from blue to colourless.
