Answer:
Explanation:
A buffer is defined as an aqueous mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.
In the systems:
H₂CO₃(aq) and KHCO₃(aq): Carbonic acid, H₂CO₃, is a weak acid that, in solution with its conjugate pair, HCO₃⁻ make a <em>buffer system.</em>
NaCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): NaCl is a salt and NaOH is a strong base. Thus, this system <em>is not </em> a buffer system.
H₂O(l) and HCl(aq): Water is a solvent and HCl a strong acid. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
HCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): HCl is a strong acid and NaOH a strong base. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
NaCl(aq) and NaNO₃(aq): Both NaCl and NaNO₃ are salts and this system <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
This is what I got. Hope it helps :)
I think it is called a loess. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO
b) [HClO} = 0.015
c) pH = 4.64
d) pKa = ?
<u>2) Strategy:</u>
With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.
<u>3) Solution:</u>
a) pH
b) Equilibrium equation: HClO (aq) ⇄ ClO⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq)
c) Equilibrium constant: Ka = [ClO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HClO]
d) From the stoichiometry: [CLO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M
e) By substitution: Ka = (2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M)² / 0.015M = 3.50 × 10⁻⁸ M
f) By definition: pKa = - log Ka = - log (3.50 × 10 ⁻⁸) = 7.46
<h3>Al + O2 -> Al2O3</h3>
Balance it:
<h3>2Al + 3O2 -> 2Al2O3</h3><h3 />
So you need 2 Al and 3 O2 to make 2 Al2O3 (aluminum oxide).
I'm going to assume you have all the O2 you need.
Since 2 mols of Al is needed to make 2 mols of the product, it's a 1:1 ratio. You get as much aluminum oxide for as much aluminum you burn.
So 12.5 mols if there is not a lack of the O2.
