What force pulls electrons and protons together?

Calculate the pH of the following simple solutions:

IceJOKER [234]

Answer :

(1) pH = 1.27

(2) pH = 13.35

(3) The given solution is not a buffer.

Explanation :

(1) 53.1 mM HCl

Concentration of HCl = $53.1mM=53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

As HCl is a strong acid. So, it dissociates completely to give hydrogen ion and chloride ion.

So, Concentration of hydrogen ion= $53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (53.1\times 10^{-3})$

$pH=1.27$

(2) 0.223 M KOH

Concentration of KOH = 0.223 M

As KOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ion and potassium ion.

So, Concentration of hydroxide ion= 0.223 M

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (0.223)$

$pOH=0.65$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-0.65=13.35$

(3) 53.1 mM HCl + 0.223 M KOH

Buffer : It is defined as a solution that maintain the pH of the solution by adding the small amount of acid or a base.

It is not a buffer because HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. Both dissociates completely.

As we know that the pH of strong acid and strong base solution is always 7.

So, the given solution is not a buffer.

Assume that coal can be represented by the chemical formula C135H96O9NS. If 4.0 tons of coal is burned, what mass of nitrogen is

Schach [20]

Answer:

0.02 tons of NO produced when 4 tons of coal is burned

Explanation:

From the given,

Chemical formula of coal = $C_{134}H_{96}O_{9}NS$

Molecular mass of coal = $(134\times12)+(9\times1)+(9\times16)+14+32\,=1906.1gm$

Let’s calculate the mass of nitrogen in coal

$Percentage\,weight\,of\,nitrogen=\frac{Mass\,of\,nitrogen}{Molecular\,mass\,of coal}$

$Percentage\,weight/,of/,nitrogen=\frac{14}{1906.1}=0.73%$

Amount of coal burnt = 4tons

Amount of NO produced by burning 4tons = $4\,tons\,of\,coal\times \frac{0.73tons}{100\,tons\,of\,coal}=0.0292\,tons$

This nitrogen is converted into NO by reacting with atmospheric oxygen.
