You prepared the buffer by adding about 0.2 g of each of the weak acid and its conjugate base to 25.0 mL of water. The goal was

to produce a buffer near its point of maximum buffer capacity where [WA] = [CB]. An alternative approach could have been to dissolve about 0.4 g of the weak acid in water, and then add enough NaOH to convert half the weak acid into its conjugate base. How many mL of 0.10 M NaOH would have been needed to achieve this result?

Answer:

To achieve the desired outcome, 8.55 mL of NaOH is necessary.

Explanation:

Considering that:

the weak acid has a mass of 0.4 g

and a molecular weight of 234 g/mol

so, the number of moles of the weak acid is calculated as 0.4 g/234 g/mol = 0.00171 mole

To convert half of the weak acid (WA) to conjugate base (CB), we must add NaOH.

Thus, [WA]=[CB] 0.00171/2 = 8.55×10⁻⁴ mole of NaOH required

Further, knowing that the concentration of NaOH is 0.10 M

the volume needed to achieve this result can be calculated as follows:

8.55*10^{-4}*\frac{1 \ L}{0.1 \ M}

= 8.55*10^{-4}*\frac{1 000}{0.1 }

= 8.55 mL of NaOH is necessary

An infant acetaminophen suspension contains 80 mg/0.80 mL suspension. The recommended dose is 15 mg/kg body weight.
KiRa [2933]

Response:

0.8853 mL

Clarification:

Initially, we convert 13 lb to kg, remembering that 1 lb = 0.454 kg:

  • 13 lb * \frac{0.454kg}{1lb} = 5.902 kg

Next, we determine the required mg of acetaminophen to administer, applying the recommended dosage and infant's weight:

  • 15 mg/kg * 5.902 kg = 88.53 mg

Finally, we compute the necessary mL of suspension, utilizing its concentration:

  • 88.53 mg ÷ (80 mg/0.80 mL) = 0.8853 mL

A student reported to her instructor that her unknown contained salt, salicylic acid, and sand. In reality the unknown contained
lorasvet [2795]
From the provided data, the unknown mixture was composed of salt, salicylic acid, and sand. It is understandable that the student suspected the presence of sand, yet scientific experimentation must verify such assumptions. The test involving salt and salicylic acid reveals that salt dissolves in water, while salicylic acid is only slightly soluble, and sand does not dissolve at all. By introducing the unknown into water, the salt would dissolve first, followed by the partial dissolution of salicylic acid. Heating the mixture could allow for the evaporation of salicylic acid, resulting in the remaining salt. If traces of sand were observed in the dissolved sample, it could suggest contamination.

The reaction between nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide is NO2(g)+CO(g)→NO(g)+CO2(g)NO2(g)+CO(g)→NO(g)+CO2(g) The rate constan
eduard [2782]

Response: The rate constant at 525 K is, 0.0606M^{-1}s^{-1}

Rationale:

Based on the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

or,

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

K_1 = rate constant when 701K = 2.57M^{-1}s^{-1}

K_2 = rate constant when 525K =?

Ea = activation energy for the process = 1.5\times 10^2kJ/mol=1.5\times 10^5J/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

T_1 = initial temperature = 701 K

T_2 = final temperature = 525 K

Substituting the provided values into this formula yields:

\log (\frac{K_2}{2.57M^{-1}s^{-1}})=\frac{1.5\times 10^5J/mol}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{701K}-\frac{1}{525K}]

K_2=0.0606M^{-1}s^{-1}

Thus, the rate constant at 525 K is, 0.0606M^{-1}s^{-1}

The normal boiling point of c2cl3f3 is 47.6°c and its molar enthalpy of vaporization is 27.49 kj/mol. what is the change in entr
eduard [2782]
Based on the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS = 0

It follows that ΔS = ΔH/T

So, ΔS = n*ΔHVap / Tvap

- where n represents the number of moles calculated as mass/molar mass

For a mass of 24.1 g

and a molar mass of 187.3764 g/mol

substituting gives:

∴ n = 24.1 / 187.3764g/mol

      = 0.129 moles

The molar enthalpy of vaporization, ΔHvap, is 27.49 kJ/mol

The temperature in Kelvin, Tvap = 47.6 + 273 = 320.6 K

After substitution, we compute ΔS, the change in entropy:

∴ΔS = 0.129 mol * 27490 J/mol / 320.6 K

      = 11 J/K

Milk, if 2.00 liters has a mass of 2.06 kg. Find the density in g/cm^3
lorasvet [2795]
The density is 1.03 g/cm³. Explanation: The density of a substance is calculated with the formula: 1 kg = 1000 g therefore 2.06 kg = 2060 g. 1 L = 1000 cm³ thus 2 L = 2000 cm³. We now find: Mass = 2060 g Volume = 2000 cm³. Thus, the final answer of density is: 1.03 g/cm³. I hope this information assists you.
