In a hospital laboratory, a 10.0 mL sample of gastric juice (predominantly HCl), obtained several hours after a meal, was titrat

ed with 0.1 M NaOH to neutrality; 7.2 mL of NaOH was required. The patient’s stomach contained no ingested food or drink, thus assume that no buffers were present. What was the pH of the gastric juice?

Answer: 1.14

Explanation:

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=?\\V_1=10.0mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.1M\\V_2=7.2mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times M_1\times 10.0=1\times 0.1\times 7.2\\\\M_1=0.072M

To calculate pH of gastric juice:

molarity of H^+ = 0.072

pH=-log[H^+]

pH=-log(0.072)=1.14

Thus the pH of the gastric juice is 1.14

andriy [413]

Given an equilibrium constant value of 7.2 x 10-4 it is false to say that the reaction proceeds essentially to completion.

<h3>What is the equilibrium constant?</h3>

In a reaction, we can judge using the value of the equilibrium constant weather or not the reaction moves on to completion. If the reaction moves up to completion, it the follows that the value of the equilibrium constant ought to be large.

On the other hand, when we have a case that the equilibrium constant is small and is not so large, then the reaction does not proceed essentially to completion.

Given an equilibrium constant value of 7.2 x 10-4 it is false to say that the reaction proceeds essentially to completion.

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3

51.7ml at 27 Celsius and 90kpa to stp
never [62]
STP is the abbreviation of standard condition for temperature and pressure which is 273.15K temperature and 1.013× 10^5 Pa pressure. Since the pressure and temperature changes, I assume the question would ask about the result of the volume. The temperature used in ideal gas should be Kelvin, so 27 Celcius would be 300.15K.
The calculation would be
PV=T
V=T/P

V2/V1= T2*P1/T1*P2
V2/V1=273.15K*  90^10^3Pa/ 300.15K *  1.013× 10^5 Pa
V2= 0.81904 * 51.7ml
V2= 42.34ml
