The pKa of formic acid is 3.75. At pH of 5.00, _______ .

The pKa of formic acid is 3.75. At pH of 5.00, b) [formate] > [formic acid].

Formic acid is a weak acid. Thus, together with its conjugate base (formate) they form a buffer system. We can calculate the pH of a buffer system using Henderson-Hasselbach's equation.

pH = pKa + log \frac{[formate]}{[formic\ acid]} \\\\5.00 = 3.75 + log \frac{[formate]}{[formic\ acid]}\\\\\frac{[formate]}{[formic\ acid]}  = 17.8

As expected, at a pH above the pKa, the concentration of formate is higher than that of the formic acid.

The pKa of formic acid is 3.75. At pH of 5.00, b) [formate] > [formic acid].

5F248+ 2NH3(8) ► NF418 + 6HF
mylen [45]

Answer:

14.2L at STP

Explanation:

Based on the problem, 2 moles of NH3 produce 6 moles of HF. To solve this question we have to convert the mass of NH3 to moles. With the chemical equation find the moles of HF and using PV = nRT find the liters of HF:

<em>Moles NH3 -Molar mass: 17.031g/mol-</em>

3.6g NH3 * (1mol / 17.031g) = 0.211 moles NH3

<em>Moles HF:</em>

0.211 moles NH3 * (6mol HF / 2mol NH3) = 0.634 moles HF

<em>Volume HF</em>

PV = nRT; V = nRT/P

<em>Where V is volume in liters, n are moles of the gas = 0.634 moles, R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK, T is absolute temperature = 273.15K at STP and P is pressure = 1atm at STP.</em>

Replacing:

V = 0.634moles*0.082atmL/molK*273.15K / 1atm

V = 14.2L at STP

When the concentrations of CO2 and H2CO3 are both horizontal lines then the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.

<h3>What is rate of reaction?</h3>

The term rate of reaction refers to how fast or slow a reaction proceeds. Recall that the rate  of reaction is measured from the rate of disappearance of reactants or the rate of appearance of products.

When the [CO2] and [H2CO3 ] are both horizontal lines, the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.

Let us recall that the reaction is reversible hence addition of H2CO3  will increase the concentration of H2CO3, the reverse reaction would be favored.
