A cylinder is labeled \"PENTANE.\" When the gas inside the cylinder is monochlorinated, five isomers of formula C5H11Cl result.

Was the gas pure n-pentane, pure isopentane, pure neopentane, or a mixture of two or all three of these?

Answer:

a mixture of two these

Explanation:

The number of isomeric monochlorides depends on the structure and number of equivalent hydrogen atoms in each isomer of pentane.

n-pentane has three different kinds of equivalent hydrogen atoms leading to three isomeric monochlorides formed.

Isopentane has four different types of equivalent hydrogen atoms hence four isomeric monochlorides are formed.

Lastly, neopentane has only one type of equivalent hydrogen atoms that yields one mono chlorination product.

Hence the cylinder must contain a mixture of isopentane and neopentane which yields four and one isomeric monochlorides giving a total of five identifiable monochloride products as stated in the question.

How many grams of NaF should be added to 500 mL of a 0.100 M solution of HF to make a buffer with a pH of 3.2
Korolek [52]

Answer:

2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2

Explanation:

The mixture of a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF), produce a buffer. To find the pH of a buffer we must use H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer that you want = 3.2, pKa is the pKa of HF = 3.17, and [] could be taken as the moles of A-, the conjugate base (NaF) and the weak acid, HA, (HF). </em>

The moles of HF are:

500mL = 0.500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.0500 moles HF

Replacing:

3.2 = 3.17 + log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

0.03 = log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

1.017152 = [A-] / [0.0500moles]

[A-] = 0.0500mol * 1.017152

[A-] = 0.0536 moles NaF

The mass could be obtained using the molar mass of NaF (41.99g/mol):

0.0536 moles NaF * (41.99g/mol) =

<h3>2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2</h3>
