HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
so:
![\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]} = 1.5 x 10^{-5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BA%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BHA%5D%7D%20%3D%201.5%20x%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%20%20)
and now:
= 1.5 x 10⁻⁵
x is considered very small compared to 0.15
x² = 2.25 x 10⁻⁶
x = 1.5 x 10⁻³
So [H⁺] = 1.5 x 10⁻³
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (1.5 x 10⁻³) = 2.83
Answer:
54 grams ammonium chloride and 40 grams sodium hydroxide
Explanation:
A buffer is a solution that contains either a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt, the solution is resistant to changes in pH. This means that, a buffer is an aqueous solution of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
A Buffer is used to maintain a stable pH in a solution, buffers can neutralize small quantities of additional acid of base. For any buffer solution, there is always a working pH range and a set amount of acid or base that can be neutralized before the pH will change. The amount of acid or base that can be added to a buffer before changing its pH is called its buffer capacity.
A good buffer mixture is supposed to have about equal concentrations of its both components. It is a rule of thumb therefore, that a buffer solution has generally lost its usefulness when one component of the buffer pair is less than about 10% of the other component.
The implication of this is that the ammonium chloride and sodium hydroxide should be of approximately the same concentration. If the masses are dissolved as shown in the answer, then we will have 1molL-1 of each component of the buffer in accordance with the rule of thumb stated above.
Answer:
XY₂Z₄
2.35 mol Z
Explanation:
A sample of the compound contains 0.221 mol X, 0.442 mol Y, and 0.884 mol Z. We can find the simplest formula (empirical formula) by <em>dividing all the numbers of moles by the smallest one</em>.
X: 0.221/0.221 = 1
Y: 0.442/0.221 = 2
Z: 0.884/0.221 = 4
The simplest formula is XY₂Z₄.
The molar ratio of X to Z is 1:4. The moles of Z in a sample that contained 0.588 moles of X is:
0.588 mol X × (4 mol Z/1 mol X) = 2.35 mol Z
The answer is A. The pH decreases
Answer:
Hey
It should be Atomic theory,
First proposed in the 15th centery by Aristotle, it states that all matter is made of <em><u>induvisable particles called atoms...</u></em>
