Answer:

group # = # valence electrons

group 2= 2 valence electrons

Explanation:

Mg is in group #2 and subsequently has 2 valence electrons (electrons on the outermost shell)

Calculate the change in pH of a 1.00 L of a buffered solution preparing by mixing 0.50 M acetic acid (Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5) and 0.50
tankabanditka [31]

The change in pH of a 1.00 L of a buffered solution preparing by mixing 0.50 M acetic acid (Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5) and 0.50 M sodium acetate when 0.010 mole of NaOH is added is 4.75

when the same amount 0.010 mole of NaOH was added to 1.00 L of water the pH = 12

Explanation:

given that:

concentration of acetic acid = 0.50 M

Concentration of base sodium acetate = 0.50 M

ka = 1.8 x 10^-5)

pka = -log [ka]

pka = 4.74

From Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

pH = pKa + log \frac{[base]}{[acid]}

pH = 4.74 + Log \frac{[0.5]}{[0.5]}

pH = 4.74 + 0

pH = 4.74

Number of moles of NaOH = 0.010 moles

volume 1 litre

molarity = 0.010 M

Moles of acetic acid and sodium acetate before addition of NaOH

FORMULA USED:

molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume in litres}

acetic acid,

0.5 = number of moles

0.5 is the number of moles of sodium acetate.

number of moles of NaOH  0.010 moles

NaOH reacts in 1:1 molar ratio with acetic acid so

number of moles in acetic acid = 0.5 - 0.010 = 0.49

number of moles in sodium acetate = 0.5 +0.010 = 0.51

new pH

pH = pKa + log \frac{[base]}{[acid]}

pH= 4.74 + log[0.51] - log[0.49]

pH= 4.75

PH of NaOH of 0.01 M (BASE)

pOH = -Log[0.01]

pOH         = 2

pH can be calculated as

14= pH +pOH

pH= 14-2

pH = 12

NeTakaya

Explanation:

pv = nRT

n= PV/RT

n =0.553×1.90/0.0821×294

n=1.0507/24.1374

n=0.0435mol

Calculate the molar mass of each of the following:
Allushta [10]

Explanation:

Molar mass

The mass present in one mole of a specific species .

The molar mass of a compound , can easily be calculated as the sum of the all the individual atom multiplied by the number of total atoms .

(a) S₈

Molar mass of of the atoms are -

sulfur, S = 32 g/mol.

Molar mass of  S₈ = 8 * 32 g/mol.  = 256 g/mol.

(b) C₂H₁₂

Molar mass of of the atoms are -

Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol

Carbon , C = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of C₂H₁₂ = ( 2 * 12 ) + (12 * 1 ) = 36 g /mol

(c) Sc₂(SO₄)₃

Molar mass of of the atoms are -

sulfur, S = 32 g/mol.

oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.

scandium , Sc = 45 g/mol.

Molar mass of Sc₂(SO₄)₃ = (2 * 45 ) + ( 3 *32 ) + ( 12 * 16 ) = 378 g /mol  

(d) CH₃COCH₃ (acetone)

Molar mass of of the atoms are -

Carbon , C = 12 g/mol

oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.

Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol

Molar mass of CH₃COCH₃ (acetone) = (3 * 12 ) + ( 1 * 16 ) + ( 6 * 1 ) = 58g/mol

(e) C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose)

Molar mass of of the atoms are -

Carbon , C = 12 g/mol

oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.

Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol

Molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) = ( 6 * 12 ) + ( 12 * 1 ) + ( 6 * 16 ) = 108g/mol.
