I would go with neither
Hope this helps
Naproxen is known to be a weak acid. In order to calculate
its ka and pka, use the equation of getting the ph of weak acid which is ph=
-1/2 log [(Ka)(Mwa)]. The Ka value is 3.18x10^-5. The pKa can be obtained
through pKa = - log Ka. The pKa is 4.5.
Answer:
398 mL
Explanation:
Using the equation for molarity,
C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ where C₁ = concentration before adding water = 8.61 mol/L and V₁ = volume before adding water, C₂ = concentration after adding water = 1.75 mol/L and V₂ = volume after adding water = 500 mL = 0.5 L
V₂ = V₁ + V' where V' = volume of water added.
So, From C₁V₁ = C₂V₂
V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁
= 1.75 mol/L × 0.5 L ÷ 8.61 mol/L
= 0.875 mol/8.61 mol/L
= 0.102 L
So, V₂ = V₁ + V'
0.5 L = 0.102 L + V'
V' = 0.5 L - 0.102 L
= 0.398 L
= 398 mL
So, we need to add 398 mL of water to the nitric solution.
