Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, eq. (3), to calculate the pH expected for a buffer solution prepared from this acid and

its conjugate base, assuming: the mass of the weak acid is 0.2 g and the mass of the conjugate base is 0.2 g will be added to 25 mL of water. Also assume the molar mass of the weak acid is 234 and its conjugate base is the sodium salt.

Answer:

pH=4.56

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, given the Henderson-Hasselbach equation, it is possible for us to compute the pH by firstly computing the concentration of the acid and the conjugate base; for this purpose we assume that the volume of the total solution is 0.025 L and the molar mass of the sodium base is 234 - 1 + 23 = 256 g/mol as one H is replaced by the Na:

n_{acid}=\frac{0.2g}{234g/mol}=0.000855mol\\\\n_{base}= \frac{0.2g}{256g/mol}=0.000781mol

And the concentrations are:

[acid]=0.000855mol/0.025L=0.0342M

[base]=0.000781mol/0.025L=0.0312M

Then, considering that the Ka of this acid is 2.5x10⁻⁵, we obtain for the pH:

pH=-log(2.5x10^{-5})+log(\frac{0.0312M}{0.0342M} )\\\\pH=4.60-0.04\\\\pH=4.56

Best regards!

Why do we need to calibrate equipment​
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

to be precise in the calculations

Explanation: for example your cell phone has a gps inside it, the gps is responsible for providing direction data like a compass, if the equipment is not calibrated, the gps will not find the correct direction.

The density (g/L) of CO2 gas at STP ( 273 K, 1.00 atm) is
Triss [41]

The density : 1.96 g/L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Ideal gas Law

Pv=nRT

where  

P = pressure, atm , N/m²  

V = volume, liter  

n = number of moles  

R = gas constant = 0.082 l.atm / mol K (P= atm, v= liter),or 8,314 J/mol K (P=Pa or N/m², v= m³)  

T = temperature, Kelvin  

so for density,

MW CO₂ = 44 g/mol

\tt \rho=\dfrac{P\times MW}{RT}\\\\\rho=\dfrac{1\times 44}{0.082\times 273}\\\\\rho=1.96~g/L
