Determine the [OH−] of a solution that is 0.115 M in CO32−. For carbonic acid (H2CO3), Ka1=4.3×10−7 and Ka2=5.6×10−11.
lianna [129]

Answer:

[OH⁻] = 4.3 x 10⁻¹¹M in OH⁻ ions.

Explanation:

Assuming the source of the carbonate ion is from a Group IA carbonate salt (e.g.; Na₂CO₃), then 0.115M Na₂CO₃(aq) => 2(0.115)M Na⁺(aq) + 0.115M CO₃²⁻(aq). The 0.115M CO₃²⁻ then reacts with water to give 0.115M carbonic acid; H₂CO₃(aq) in equilibrium with H⁺(aq) and HCO₃⁻(aq) as the 1st ionization step.

Analysis:

            H₂CO₃(aq)     ⇄     H⁺(aq)    +    HCO₃⁻(aq); Ka(1) = 4.3 x 10⁻⁷

C(i)          0.115M                      0                  0

ΔC              -x                        +x                  +x

C(eq)    0.115M - x                   x                    x

            ≅ 0.115M

Ka(1) = [H⁺(aq)][HCO₃⁻(aq)]/[H₂CO₃(aq)] = [(x)(x)/(0.115)]M = [x²/0.115]M

= 4.3 x 10⁻⁷  => x = [H⁺(aq)]₁ = SqrRt(4.3 x 10⁻⁷ · 0.115)M = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴M in H⁺ ions.

In general, it is assumed that all of the hydronium ion comes from the 1st ionization step as adding 10⁻¹¹ to 10⁻⁷ would be an insignificant change in H⁺ ion concentration. Therefore, using 2.32 x 10⁻⁴M in H⁺ ion  concentration, the hydroxide ion concentration is then calculated from

[H⁺][OH⁻] = Kw => [OH⁻] = (1 x 10⁻¹⁴/2.32 x 10⁻⁴)M = 4.3 x 10⁻¹¹M in OH⁻ ions.

________________________________________________________

NOTE: The 2.32 x 10⁻⁴M  value for [H⁺] is reasonable for carbonic acid solution with pH ≅ 3.5 - 4.0.

In a constant‑pressure calorimeter, 60.0 mL of 0.300 M Ba ( OH ) 2 was added to 60.0 mL of 0.600 M HCl . The reaction caused the
densk [106]

Answer:

Q sln = 75.165 J

Explanation:

a constant pressure calorimeter:

  • Q sln = mCΔT

∴ m sln = m Ba(OH)2 + m HCl

∴ molar mass Ba(OH)2 = 171.34 g/mol

∴ mol Ba(OH)2 = (0.06 L)(0.3 mol/L) = 0.018 mol

⇒ mass Ba(OH)2 = (0.018 mol)(171.34 g/mol) = 3.084 g

∴ molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol

∴ mol HCl = (0.06 L)(0.60 mol/L) = 0.036 mol

⇒ mass HCl = (0.036 mol)(36.46 g/mol) = 1.313 g

⇒ m sln = 3.084 g + 1.313 g = 4.3966 g

specific heat (C):

∴ C sln = C H2O = 4.18 J/g°C

∴ ΔT = 26.83°C - 22.74°C = 4.09°C

heat absorbed (Q):

⇒ Q sln = (4.3966 g)(4.18 J/g°C)(4.09°C)

⇒ Q sln = 75.165 J
