You need to prepare 1 L of the citric acid/citrate buffer. You have chosen to use Method 1 (see lab presentation). Calculate the

pH of a solution prepared by mixing 300 mL of 0.45 M citric acid acid and 100 mL of 0.65 M NaOH plus water to a final volume of one liter. The Ka of citric acid is 7.24 x 10-4.

Answer:

3.11 is the pH of the buffer

Explanation:

The pH of a buffer is obtained using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [Conjugate base] / [Weak acid]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer, pKa = -log Ka = 3.14 for the citric buffer and [] could be taken as the moles of each species.</em>

The citric acid,HX (Weak acid), reacts with NaOH to produce sodium citrate, NaX (weak base) and water:

HX + NaOH → H2O + NaX

That means the moles of NaOH added = Moles of sodium citrate produced

And the resulitng moles of HX = Initial moles - Moles NaOH added

<em>Moles HX and NaX:</em>

Moles NaOH = 0.100L * (0.65mol / L) = 0.065 moles NaOH = Moles NaX

Moles HX = 0.300L * (0.45mol / L) = 0.135 moles HX - 0.065 moles NaOH = 0.070 moles HX

Replacing in H-H equation:

pH = 3.14 + log [0.065mol] / [0.070mol]

pH = 3.11 is the pH of the buffer

5) Determine the mass if lithium hydroxide that is produced when 12.87 g of lithium
netineya [11]

Answer: 26.54 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of lithium nitride}=\frac{12.87g}{34.83g/mol}=0.369moles

Li_3N+3H_2O\rightarrow 3LiOH+NH_3  

Li_3N is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and H_2O is the excess reagent

According to stoichiometry :

As 1 moles of Li_3N give = 3 moles of LiOH

Thus 0.369 moles of O_2 give =\frac{3}{1}\times 0.369=1.108moles  of LiOH

Mass of LiOH=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.108moles\times 23.95g/mol=26.54g

Thus  26.54 g of LiOH will be produced from the given mass.

Calculate the volume of the gas when the pressure of the gas is 1.60 atm at a temperature of 298 K. There are 160. mol of gas in
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

2445 L

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 1.60 atm

Temperature = 298 K

Volume = ?

n =  160 mol

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 08206 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

1.60 atm × V = 160 mol × 0.08206 L.atm/K.mol × 298 K  

<u>⇒V = 2445.39 L</u>

Answer to four significant digits, Volume = 2445 L
