How many grams of sodium acetate ( molar mass = 83.06 g/mol ) must be added to 1.00 Liter of a 0.200 M acetic acid solution to m
Pie

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sodium acetate that must be added is 30.23 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Molarity of acetic acid solution = 0.200 M

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.200M=\frac{\text{Moles of acetic acid}}{1L}\\\\\text{Moles of acetic acid}=(0.200mol/L\times 1L)=0.200mol

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{salt}]}{[\text{acid}]})  

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

We are given:

pK_a = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of acetic acid = 4.74

[CH_3COONa]=?mol  

[CH_3COOH]=0.200mol

pH = 5.00

Putting values in above equation, we get:

5=4.74+\log(\frac{[CH_3COONa]}{0.200})

[CH_3COONa]=0.364mol

To calculate the mass of sodium acetate for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of sodium acetate = 83.06 g/mol

Moles of sodium acetate = 0.364 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.364mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sodium acetate}}{83.06g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sodium acetate}=(0.364mol\times 83.06g/mol)=30.23g

Hence, the mass of sodium acetate that must be added is 30.23 grams

What is the sequence of energy transformations that occur in a nuclear reactor?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

option (B) is correct

Explanation:

In case of nuclear reactors first the nuclear energy is emitted due to the nuclear fission of heavy elements.

This nuclear energy is emitted in the form of heat energy.

This heat energy is used to rotate the turbines, that means it is converted in the form of mechanical energy and then finally this mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.
