The pH of a 0.1 M solution of an unknown weak acid is 3.7. What is the pKa of this acid?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Knowing the pH, you know the concentration of protons:

−log[H+]=pH=3.7

[H+]=10−3.7 M

Now, since the weak (monoprotic) acid dissociates into its conjugate base and a proton, the mols of protons are equimolar with the mols of conjugate base---the protons came FROM the weak acid, so the conjugate base that forms must be equimolar with the protons given out to the solvent.

HA⇌A−+H+

Hence, [A−]=[H+] in the same solution volume. Using the equilibrium constant expression, we get:

Ka=[H+]2eq[HA]eq

Don't forget that the HA form of HA had given away protons, so the mols of protons given away to generate A− is subtracted from the mols of (protons in) HA.

=[H+]2eq[HA]i−[H+]eq

=(10−3.7M)20.02M−10−3.7M

Ka=2.0105×10−6 M

Unknown A melts at 113- 114oC. Known compounds 3-Nitroaniline and 4-Nitrophenol both melt at 112-114 oC. If A is mixed with 3-Nitroaniline and the melting point becomes broad and depressed, what must A be __________A) 3-Nitroaniline B) 4-Nitrophenol C) Both

Answers

Answer:

C) Both

Explanation:

Whenever we mix any pure form of a compound with some other form of a compound which is not in the other standard pure state, this results in the melting point of mixture to get dispersed and it becomes broad form.

Thus, when a known compound of 3-Nitroaniline mixes with both 3-Nitroaniline and 4-Nitrophenol, the melting point of the compound becomes depressed and board.

Thus the correct option is (C).

Explanation:

For the first question, we can see that the pressure is constant so we apply Charles law;

V1/T1 =V2/T2

V1T2 = V2T1

V1= 4.5 L

T1= 27 + 273 = 300 K

V2= ?

T2= 127 + 273 = 400 K

V2= V1T2/T1

V2= 4.5 × 400/300

V2= 6L

For question 2, Charles law is also used;

V1/T1 =V2/T2

V1T2 = V2T1

T1= 338 K

V1= 0.480 L

T2= ?

V2= 9.2 L

T2= V2T1/V1

T2= 9.2 × 338/0.480

T2= 6478.3 K

A solution of acetic acid that has a concentration of 0.10 moles per liter has a pH of 2.87. What is the likely pH of a 0.10 mole per liter solution of the conjugate base sodium acetate?
A. 8.97
B. 1.00
C. 2.87
D. 4.74
E. 13.00

Answers

Answer: The correct option is A) 8.97

Explanation:

To calculate the [tex]K_b[/tex] of a reaction, we use the equation:

[tex]K_a\times K_b=10^{-14}[/tex]

where,

[tex]K_a[/tex] = acid dissociation constant of acetic acid = [tex]1.86\times 10^{-5}[/tex]

[tex]K_b[/tex] = base dissociation constant

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex](1.86\times 10^{-5})\times K_b=10^{-14}\\\\K_b=\frac{10^{-14}}{1.86\times 10^{-5}}=5.37\times 10^{-10}[/tex]

To calculate the hydroxide ion concentration of conjugate base, we use the equation:

[tex][OH^-]=\sqrt{K_b\times \text{[Conjugate base]}}[/tex]

where,

[Conjugate base] = 0.10 M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex][OH^-]=\sqrt{(5.37\times 10^{-10})\times 0.1}[/tex]

[tex][OH^-]=7.33\times 10^{-6}[/tex]

To calculate the pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

[tex]pOH=-\log [OH^-][/tex]

[tex]pOH=-\log (7.33\times 10^{-6})[/tex]

[tex]pOH=5.03[/tex]

To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 5.03 = 14

pH = (14 - 5.03) = 8.97

Hence, the correct option is A) 8.97

Stomach acid is approximately 0.10 M HCl. How many mL of stomach acid can be neutralized by one regular antacid tablet that contains 500 mg of solid CaCO3 (100.09 g/mol)?

Answers

Answer:

100 mL

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

First we convert 500 mg of CaCO₃ into mmoles, using its molar mass:

500 mg ÷ 100 mg/mmol = 5 mmol CaCO₃

Then we convert 5 mmoles of CaCO₃ into HCl mmoles, using the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction:

5 mmol CaCO₃ * [tex]\frac{2mmolHCl}{1mmolCaCO_3}[/tex] = 10 mmol HCl

Finally we calculate the volume of a 0.10 M HCl solution (such as stomach acid) that would contain 10 mmoles:

10 mmol / 0.10 M = 100 mL

Given the following values for the change in enthalpy (deltaH) and entropy (deltaS), which of the following processes can occur at 298 K without violating the second Law of Thermodynamics?
(a) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)
(b) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = -125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)
(c) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)
(d) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Answers

Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

(a) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = Delta H – T * DS

Substituting the given values, we get –  

Delta G = -84 -298 *(125/1000) = -121.25  KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

(b) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = -125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G =-84 -298 *(-125/1000) = -46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

(c) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = 84 -298 *(125/1000) = +46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

(d) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = 84 -298 *(-125/1000) = + 121.25  KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

A 14.570 g sample of CaCl2 was added to 12.285 g of K2CO3 and mixed in water. A 3.494 g yield of CaCO3 was obtained.
What is the limiting reagent?
-CaCO3
-K2CO3
-CaCl2

Calculate the percent yield of CaCO3.
yield of CaCO3= %

Answers

Answer:

Limiting reagent is the potassium carbonate.

Percent yield of calcium carbonate is: 39.3 %

Explanation:

The reaction is:

CaCl₂ + K₂CO₃ → CaCO₃ + 2KCl

Formula for percent yield is:

(Produced yield / Thoeretical yield) . 100

Firstly we determine the moles of each reactant, in order to say what is the limiting reagent: ratio is 1:1.

1 mol of chloride need 1 mol of carbonate.

14.570 g . 1 mol /110.98 g = 0.131 moles of CaCl₂

12.285 g . 1 mol / 138.2g = 0.0889 moles of carbonate.

Limiting reagent is carbonate. For 0.131 moles of CaCl₂ we need the same amount of carbonate and we have less moles.

Ratio is also 1:1, with calcium carbonate.

1 mol of potassium carbonate produces 1 mol of calcium carbonate

then, 0.0889 moles will produce the same amount of CaCO₃

We convert moles to mass: 0.0889 mol . 100.08g /mol = 8.89 g

That's the theoretical yield; to find the percent yield:

(3.494 g / 8.89g) . 100 = 39.3%

When the following oxidation-reduction reaction in acidic solution is balanced, what is the

Rb(s) + Sr2+ (aq) → Rb+(aq) + Sr(s)

Answers

Answer:

2Rb(s) + Sr^+(aq) → 2Rb^+ (aq) + Sr(s)

Explanation:

In a redox reaction, we must ensure that the number of electrons gained equals the number of electrons lost in the reduction and oxidation half reaction equations respectively.

Having that in mind;

Oxidation half reaction;

2Rb(s) ---->2Rb^+(aq) + 2e

Reduction half equation;

Sr^2+(aq) + 2e---> Sr(s)

Hence, the overall redox reaction equation is;

2Rb(s) + Sr^+(aq) → 2Rb^+ (aq) + Sr(s)

As it is given that the initial concentration of sulfuric acid is 0.010 M.

Hence, the ICE table for first dissociation of sulfuric acid is as follows.

               

Initial:         0.010                       0        0

Change:     -0.010                +0.010    +0.010

Equilibrium:    0                    0.010        0.010

When second dissociation of sulfuric acid occurs which is partial then the ICE table will be as follows.

                           

Initial:                 0.010                    0        0.010

Change:              -x                       +x          +x

Equilibrium:       0.010 - x              x            0.010 + x

Since, it is given that . Hence, formula  for  is as follows.

             

               

                     

                 

                               x = 0.0045

Hence, by using the equilibrium concentrations from the table and value of x we get the following.

    = x,        

                   = 0.0045 M

    = 0.010 - x

                     = 0.010 - 0.0045

                     = 0.0055 M

     = 0.010 + x

                   = 0.010 + 0.0045

                   = 0.0145 M

13. The attraction between water molecules and an Na+
ion or a Cl- ion occurs because water molecules are
A) linear
B) symmetrical
C) polar
D) nonpolar

Answers

Answer:

C) Polar

Explanation:

The correct answer is polar

The attraction of sodium and chloride ions by the water is mediated by the polar nature of water. Thus, option C is correct.

What is polarity?

The polarity is given as the formation of the partial positive and negative charge over the species in the ionization process.

Water molecule is having one hydrogen bounded with 2 oxygen atoms, and oxygen being more electronegative develops a partial negative charge, while hydrogen develops a partial positive charge.

The positive charge hydrogen and the negative charge oxygen attracts the opposite charge sodium and chloride ions. Thus, the attraction is mediated due to the polar nature of water. Hence, option C is correct.

Assume you find four bottles in an empty laboratory, each containing a liquid. The labels that were on these bottles have fallen off and are strewn about the bench top. Therefore, you know the contents of the four bottles, but do not know which bottle belonged to which compound. The names on the labels are given below:

trans-1,2-dichloroethylene,
cis-1,2-dichloroethylene,
cyclooctane,
and acetic acid.

Without determining the boiling point, would you be able to identify the contents of each bottle using solubility and polarity (with H2O) information? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

No, I can not identify the contents of each bottle using solubility and polarity (with H2O) information

Explanation:

While it is true that polar substances dissolve in water and nonpolar substances do not dissolve in water, the task here is to specifically identify the contents of each of the bottles.

Solubility in water can not tell us exactly what liquid is which substance. For instance, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene and cyclooctane are all insoluble in water. The fact that they do not dissolve in water does not tell us which liquid is which compound.

Even though acetic acid is miscible with water, it is not a conclusive prove that the liquid is acetic acid since other polar organic compounds are also miscible in water.

It is only by determining the boiling point of each substance that I can conclusively identify the contents of each bottle since boiling point is an intrinsic property of substances.

Identical wire loops are dipped into Liquid X and Liquid Y, so that a film of liquid forms across the loops (like the bubble solution on a child's bubble blowing wand). The width of each loop is increased slowly and the forces FX and FY needed to make the loops 5% wider are measured.

a. FX will be greater than F Y
b. FX will be less than FY
c. FX will be equal to FY
d. It's impossible to predict whether F X or FY will be greater without more information.

Answers

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

Assuming that Liquid X is considered to possess a greater viscosity as well as higher surface tension than liquid Y. Then, liquid X will tend to harbour more pressure inside the liquid.

In addition to that, the greater the surface tension, the greater the force required to expand the liquid's surface area.

This in turn makes the force required to make the loop 5% wider to be greater in FX rather than FY.

Thus, option a is the correct answer.
