Explanation:
According to the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, the relation between pH and
is as follows.
pH = 
where, pH = 7.4 and
= 7.21
As here, we can use the
nearest to the desired pH.
So, 7.4 = 7.21 + 
0.19 = 
= 1.55
1 mM phosphate buffer means
+
= 1 mM
Therefore, the two equations will be as follows.
= 1.55 ............. (1)
+
= 1 mM ........... (2)
Now, putting the value of
from equation (1) into equation (2) as follows.
1.55
= 1 mM
2.55
= 1 mM
= 0.392 mM
Putting the value of
in equation (1) we get the following.
0.392 mM +
= 1 mM
= (1 - 0.392) mM
= 0.608 mM
Thus, we can conclude that concentration of the acid must be 0.608 mM.
Answer:
2 half-lives=0.8
6 half-lives= 0.05
Explanation
Half-lives are constant and always decrease by half, implying that the concentration decreases by half at a consistent rate.
3.2/2= 1.6/2= 0.8 is two half-lives
3.2/2= 1.6/2= 0.8/2= 0.4/2= 0.2/2= 0.1/2=0.05 is six half-lives
Answer:
83.64%.
Explanation:
∵ The percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.
actual yield of CO₂ = 2300 g.
- We need to find the theoretical yield of CO₂:
For the reaction:
<em>CH₄ + 2O₂ → 2H₂O + CO₂,</em>
1.0 mol of CH₄ react with 2 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of H₂O and 1.0 mol of CO₂.
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 1000 g of CH₄ using the relation:
<em>no. of moles of CH₄ = mass/molar mass</em> = (1000 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = <em>62.5 mol.</em>
<u><em>Using cross-multiplication:</em></u>
1.0 mol of CH₄ produces → 1.0 mol of CO₂, from stichiometry.
∴ 62.5 mol of CH₄ produces → 62.5 mol of CO₂.
- We can calculate the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide gas using the relation:
∴ The theoretical yield of CO₂ gas = n*molar mass = (62.5 mol)(44.0 g/mol) = 2750 g.
<em>∵ The percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield)*100.</em>
actual yield = 2300 g, theoretical yield = 2750 g.
<em>∴ the percent yield</em> = (2300 g/2750 g)*100 = <em>83.64%.</em>
