Hello!

To solve this problem we are going to use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation and clear for the molar ratio. Keep in mind that we need the value for Acetic Acid's pKa, which can be found in tables and is 4,76:

 pH=pKa + log ( \frac{[CH_3COONa]}{[CH_3COOH]} )

\frac{[CH_3COOH]}{[CH_3COONa}= 10^{(pH-pKa)^{-1}}=10^{(4-4,76)^{-1}}=5,75

So, the mole ratio of CH₃COOH to CH₃COONa is 5,75

Have a nice day!

What is the volume of 0.250 m hydrochloric acid required to react completely with 20.0 ml of 0.250 m ca(oh)2?
Soloha48 [4]
The balanced equation for the above neutralisation reaction is as follows;
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HCl ----> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O
Stoichiometry of Ca(OH)₂ to HCl is 1:2
number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted - 0.250 mol/L x 20.0 x 10⁻³ L = 5.00 x 10⁻³ mol
according to molar ratio of 1:2
number of HCl moles required = 2 x number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted
number of HCl moles = 5.00 x 10⁻³ x 2 = 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol
molarity of HCl solution - 0.250 M
there are 0.250 mol  in volume of 1 L
therefore 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol in - 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol  / 0.250 mol/L = 40.0 mL 
40.0 mL of 0.250 M HCl is required

calculate the heat required in joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of -20 c to liquid water at the normal
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to convert ice to ice at 0⁰C

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 18 x 2.09 x 20

= 752.4 J .

heat required to convert ice at 0⁰C to water at 0⁰C

mass x latent heat of fusion

= 18 x 336

= 6048 J

Heat required to increase the temperature of water to 100⁰C

= 18 x 4.2 x 100

= 7560 J

Total heat required

7560 + 6048 + 752.4

= 14360.4 J
