The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
Calculate the pH of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.370 mol of formic acid (HCO₂H) and 0.230 mol of sodium formate (NaCO₂H) in water sufficient to yield 1.00 L of solution. The Ka of formic acid is 1.77 × 10⁻⁴
a) 2.099
b) 10.463
c) 3.546
d) 2.307
e) 3.952
<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 3.546
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Moles of formic acid = 0.370 moles
Moles of sodium formate = 0.230 moles
Volume of solution = 1 L
To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:
![pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3DpK_a%2B%5Clog%28%5Cfrac%7B%5Bsalt%5D%7D%7B%5Bacid%5D%7D%29)
![pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[HCOONa]}{[HCOOH]})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3DpK_a%2B%5Clog%28%5Cfrac%7B%5BHCOONa%5D%7D%7B%5BHCOOH%5D%7D%29)
= negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of formic acid = 3.75
![[HCOOH]=\frac{0.370}{1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BHCOOH%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B0.370%7D%7B1%7D)
pH = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the pH of the solution is 3.546
<span>Anthracite is also referred to as hard coal because it is so hard and pure. It is very hard and highly compacted with variety of coal that has submetallic luster. It has highest carbon content, the lowest impurities, and highest density of energy of all the coal deposits.</span>
The pure substance of water mixes with the waste. The waste does not dissolve into the water, therefore it is a mixture.
Answer: The final concentration when 5 ml of a 2.5M copper sulphate solution is diluted to 750 ml is 0.017 M
Explanation:
According to the dilution law,
where,
= molarity of stock
solution = 2.5 M
= volume of stock
solution = 5 ml
= molarity of diluted
solution = ?
= volume of diluted
solution = 750 ml
Putting in the values we get:
Therefore the final concentration when 5 ml of a 2.5M copper sulphate solution is diluted to 750 ml is 0.017 M
Answer:
Explanation:
When air masses will move over cold location then bottom layer of air cools and become more dense. Due to its high density it is trapped near the ground then it flow towards the equator.
When it moves over hot location then bottom layer gets hot and lighter. Then it moves towards poles.
It changes the temperature and humidity of the climate. making hoter region coll and cooler region a bit hot.
