This problem could be solved easily using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation used for preparing buffer solutions. The equation is written below:
pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]
Where salt represents the molarity of salt (sodium lactate), while acid is the molarity of acid (lactic acid).
Moles of salt = 1 mol/L * 25 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.025 moles salt
Moles of acid = 1 mol/L* 60 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.06 moles acid
Total Volume = (25 mL + 60 mL)*(1 L/1000 mL) = 0.085 L
Molarity of salt = 0.025 mol/0.085 L = 0.29412 M
Molarity of acid = 0.06 mol/0.085 L = 0.70588 M
Thus,
pH = 3.86 + log(0.29412/0.70588)
pH = 3.48
Ok so, remember that t<span>he average atomic mass is what is seen on the periodic table. It is the average mass of all of the isotopes with their frequency taken into account. What you need to do is add the products of the masses and frequencies Just like this:</span>
<span>0.903*267.8 + 0.097*270.9
When you add it the result is what you are looking for</span>
In this item, we are simply to find the ions that may bond and are able to form a formula unit. We are also instructed to give out their name. There are numerous possible combinations of ions to form a compound. Some answers are given in the list below.
1. Na⁺ , Cl⁻ , NaCl ---> sodium chloride (this is most commonly known as table salt)
2. C⁴⁺ , O²⁻ , CO₂ ---> carbon dioxide
3. Al³+ , Cl⁻ , AlCl₃ ----> aluminum chloride
4. Ca²⁺ , Cl⁻ , CaCl₂ ---> calcium chloride
5. Li⁺ , Br⁻ , LiBr ---> lithium bromide
6. Mg³⁺ , O²⁻ , Mg₂O₃ ----> magnesium oxide
7. K⁺ , I⁻ , KI ---> potassium iodide
8. H⁺ , Cl⁻ , HCl --> hydrogen chloride
9. H⁺ , Br⁻ , HBr ----> hydrogen bromide
10. Na⁺ , Br⁻ , NaBr ---> sodium bromide
either c or d but more likely d because food is mainly broken down in your stomach
