Question 3) A 1.00 L buffer solution is 0.250 M in HF and 0.250 M in LiF. Calculate the pH of the solution after the addition of

0.150 moles of solid LiOH. Assume no volume change upon the addition of base. The Ka for HF is 3.5 × 10-4.

The pH of the solution after adding 0.150 moles of solid LiF is 3.84

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have the chemical equation,

HF (aq)+NaOH(aq)->NaF(aq)+H2O

To find how many moles have been used in this

c= n/V=> n= c.V

nHF=0.250 M⋅1.5 L=0.375 moles HF

Simillarly

nF=0.250 M⋅1.5 L=0.375 moles F

nHF=0.375 moles - 0.250 moles=0.125 moles

nF=0.375 moles+0.250 moles=0.625 moles

[HF]=0.125 moles/1.5 L=0.0834 M

[F−]=0.625 moles/1.5 L=0.4167 M

To determine the problem using the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation

pH=pKa+log ([conjugate base/[weak acid])

Find the value of Ka

pKa=−log(Ka)

pH=−log(Ka) +log([F−]/[HF]

pH= -log(3.5 x 10 ^4)+log(0.4167 M/0.0834 M)

pH=-log(3.5 x 10 ^4)+log(4.996)

pH= -4.54+0.698

pH=-(-3.84)

pH=3.84

The pH of the solution after adding 0.150 moles of solid LiF is 3.84

Alkynes are reduced to trans alkenes by a process called dissolving metal reduction. The reaction uses sodium or lithium metal a
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The movement of the electrons is illustrated in the picture attached to this answer. It is a four-step reaction mechanism.

First STEP: The first step involves the transfer of an electron from sodium to form a radical anion.

Second STEP: This radical anion then removes a proton/hydrogen from ammonia in a bid to neutralize itself (hence the hydrogen becomes bonded to the anion).

Third STEP: The sodium (from NaNH₂ formed) transfers an electron again to produce a vinyl carbanion.

Fourth STEP: The carbanion then removes a proton/hydrogen from ammonia (like in the second step) to form a neutral trans-alkene.

NOTE: The circled numbers denote each step while the mechanism on the left represents the use of any alkyl group (R and R') while the mechanism on the right assumes both alkyl groups are methyl. Hence, 2-butyne started the reaction and the final product was trans-2-butene.

Answer:

No, because Flourine can only form 1 bond, thus backbonding is not obtainable
