The number of mole of HCl needed for the solution is 1.035×10¯³ mole

<h3>How to determine the pKa</h3>

We'll begin by calculating the pKa of the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Equilibrium constant (Ka) = 2.3×10¯⁵
pKa =?

pKa = –Log Ka

pKa = –Log 2.3×10¯⁵

pKa = 4.64

<h3>How to determine the molarity of HCl </h3>

pKa = 4.64
pH = 6.5
Molarity of salt [NaZ] = 0.5 M
Molarity of HCl [HCl] =?

pH = pKa + Log[salt]/[acid]

6.5 = 4.64 + Log[0.5]/[HCl]

Collect like terms

6.5 – 4.64 = Log[0.5]/[HCl]

1.86 = Log[0.5]/[HCl]

Take the anti-log

0.5 / [HCl] = anti-log 1.86

0.5 / [HCl] = 72.44

Cross multiply

0.5 = [HCl] × 72.44

Divide both side by 72.44

[HCl] = 0.5 / 72.4

[HCl] = 0.0069 M

<h3>How to determine the mole of HCl </h3>

Molarity of HCl = 0.0069 M
Volume = 150 mL = 150 / 1000 = 0.15 L

Mole of HCl =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of HCl = 0.0069 × 0.15

Mole of HCl = 1.035×10¯³ mole

<h3>Complete question</h3>

How many moles of HCl need to be added to 150.0 mL of 0.50 M NaZ to have a solution with a pH of 6.50? (Ka of HZ is 2.3 x 10 -5 .) Assume negligible volume of the HCl

Just you think about it, a shower with hot water, you step out and it is cold, this happens because you have a enclosed space with the heat, so you get use to the heat, you step out it is cold. Hope this helped!

For a beryllium-gold voltaic cell containing Be2+(aq) and Au3+(aq) solutions, do the following. (a) Identify the cathode. (Inclu

OLEGan [10]

Answer: Gold act as cathode.

Explanation:

Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:

$E^0{cell}$ = standard electrode potential = $E^0{cathode}-E^0{anode}$

The $E^0$ values have to be reduction potentials.

Reduction potentials for given elements

$E^o_{Be^{2+}/Be}=-1.97V$

$E^o_{Au^{3+}/Au}=+1.40V$

The element Be with negative reduction potential will lose electrons undergo oxidation and thus act as anode.The element Au with positive reduction potential will gain electrons undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.
