The molar mass of CO2 can be calculated as follows;
CO2 — 12 + (16x2) = 12+ 32 = 44 g
Therefore molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol
In 44 g of CO2 there’s 1 mol of CO2
Then 1 g of CO2 there’s 1/44 mol of CO2
Therefore in 78.3 g of CO2 there’s — 1/44 x 78.3 =1.78 mol of CO2
Answer:
a. 100.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 100.0 mL of 0.15 M NH₄Cl.
c. 50.0 mL of 0.15 M HF with 20.0 mL of 0.15 M NaOH.
Explanation:
A buffer system is formed in 1 of 2 ways:
- A weak acid and its conjugate base.
- A weak base and its conjugate acid.
Determine whether mixing each pair of the following results in a buffer.
a. 100.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 100.0 mL of 0.15 M NH₄Cl.
YES. NH₃ is a weak base and NH₄⁺ (from NH₄Cl ) is its conjugate base.
b. 50.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl with 35.0 mL of 0.150 M NaOH.
NO. HCl is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base.
c. 50.0 mL of 0.15 M HF with 20.0 mL of 0.15 M NaOH.
YES. HF is a weak acid and it reacts with NaOH to form NaF, which contains F⁻ (its conjugate base).
d. 175.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 150.0 mL of 0.12 M NaOH.
NO. Both are bases.
