A student prepares a lactic acid-sodium lactate buffer solution by mixing 40.mL of 0.50MHC3H5O3(aq) with 200.mL of 1.0M NaC3H5O3

(aq) . The pKa of HC3H5O3 is 3.08. What is the pH of the resulting solution?

Answer:

pH=3.38

Explanation:

We are given the concentrations of the weak acid and its conjugate base so we need to use the henderson hasslebalch equation

pH=pKa + log (concentration A-/concentration of HA)

A- : conjugate base NaC3H5O3

HA: weak acid HC3H5O3

so if we plug in what we are given

pH= 3.08 + log (1M/.5M)

pH= 3.38

What is the density of an object that has a volume of 66.528 centimeters and a mass of 38.3 grams?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.58 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question we have

density =  \frac{ 38.3}{66.528}  \\  = 0.575697450...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.58 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

Describe an experiment to show that water contains hydrogen and oxygen only​
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Electrolysis

Explanation:

The electrolysis of water is one such experiment that shows that water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen atoms only in the ratio of 2 to 1.

In the electrolysis of water, electricity is passed through acidified water to cause it to decompose.

The electrolysis of water is also known as the electrolysis of dilute tetraoxosulphate  (VI) acid.

At the cathode, H⁺ ions are discharged and hydrogen gas is liberated:

               2H⁺       +     2e⁻     →        H₂

At the anode, both the sulfate ion and hydroxyl ions migrate to this electrode. Only the OH⁻ is selected for preferential discharge due to its lower position in that activity series.

         4OH⁻  →   2H₂O    +    O₂     +     4e⁻

Oxygen gas is produced at the anode.

This electrolysis demonstrates the volumetric composition of water that is, 2 volumes of hydrogen at the cathode and 1 volume of oxygen at the anode.
