Answer:

Mass = 1.33 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of argon required = ?

Volume of bulb = 0.745 L

Temperature and pressure = standard

Solution:

We will calculate the number of moles of argon first.

Formula:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

By putting values,

1 atm ×0.745 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K× 273.15 K

0.745 atm. L = n × 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.745 atm. L / 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.0332 mol

Mass of argon:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.0332 mol × 39.95 g/mol

Mass = 1.33 g

If you mix 50mL of 0.1 M TRIS acid with 60 mL of0.2 M TRIS base, what will be the resulting pH?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

For TRIS acid:

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol$

For TRIS base:

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol$

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

$[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}$

$[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7$

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Plants and algae that convert sunlight to food energy are called

borishaifa [10]

The correct answer is the first choice given. Plants and algaes are producers. They are called as such since they produce their own food by using the energy from the sun, CO2 and water to form glucose as their food.

The iron content of foods can be determined by dissolving them in acid (forming Fe3+), reducing the iron(III) to iron(II), and t

____ [38]

Answer:

Oxidation half-reaction:

Fe²⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

Reduction half-reaction:

Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ → Ce³⁺(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

Fe²⁺(aq) + Ce⁴⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + Ce³⁺(aq)

The oxidation half-reaction is:

Fe²⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

It is an oxidation because the oxidation state of Fe increases from 2+ to 3+.

The reduction half-reaction is:

Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ → Ce³⁺(aq)

It is a reduction because the oxidation state of Ce decreases from 4+ to 3+.
