<div class="markdown"><p>Potassium hydrogen phthalate, or simply <mathjax>#"KHP"#</mathjax>, is actually an acidic salt because its anion, the hydrogen phthalate anion, <mathjax>#"HP"^(-)#</mathjax>, acts as a <strong>weak acid</strong> in aqueous solution. </p>

<p><mathjax>#0.180 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "1 mole KHP"/(204.22 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g")))) = "0.0008814 moles KHP"#</mathjax></p>

<p>This means that the solution will contain <mathjax>#0.0008814#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of hydrogen phthalate anions, which would have an initial concentration of--you can <em>assume</em> that the volume of the solution will be <strong>equal</strong> to the volume of water.</p>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The first step we need to do is to pick our base, i.e.: a random value of our choosing that will let us change this from percentages to actual mass. For convenience's sake we can choose something like <mathjax>#100 g#</mathjax> or <mathjax>#100 kg#</mathjax> or something of the like, using <mathjax>#100 g#</mathjax>:</p>
<p>In <mathjax>#100 g#</mathjax>, since any percentage of <mathjax>#100#</mathjax> is that number, we have</p>
<p><mathjax>#70% 100g = m_Cl = 70g#</mathjax><br/>
<mathjax>#24%100g = m_C = 24g#</mathjax><br/>
<mathjax>#6%100g = m_H = 6g#</mathjax></p>
<p>Now we need to divide these values by their molar masses, because then we'll know how much atoms we can find in a molecule. For practical purposes like this we say <mathjax>#MM_Cl = 35.5 g*mol^-1#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#MM_C = 12 g* mol^-1#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#MM_H = 1g*mol^-1#</mathjax></p>
<p>So we have</p>
<p><mathjax>#n_Cl = m_Cl/(MM_Cl) = 70/35.5 = 1.97 ~= 2#</mathjax><br/>
<mathjax>#n_C = m_C/(MM_C) = 24/12 = 2#</mathjax><br/>
<mathjax>#n_H = m_H/(MM_H) = 6/1 = 6#</mathjax></p>
<p>The empirical formula wants us to have all the values as indivisible integers, and since all of these values can divide by 2, we can reduce them from <mathjax>#C_2H_6Cl#</mathjax> to <mathjax>#CH_3Cl#</mathjax>, which conveniently enough gave us a molecule that could exist from one that couldn't. (Why the first molecule can't exist and the last can is a matter for another time though, and if you have some grounding in organical chemistry, should be easy enough to see why, if not and you're curious just send me a message and I'll happy to explain why.)</p></div>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>Start by using the <strong>molar masses</strong> of the two <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/a-first-introduction-to-matter/compounds">compounds</a> to determine how many <em>moles</em> of each you are adding.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#1 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * ("1 mole CH"_3"COOH")/(60.05 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g")))) = "0.0167 moles CH"_3"COOH"#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#4 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "1 mole NaOH"/(40.0color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g")))) = "0.10 moles NaOH"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, acetic acid and sodium hydroxide react in a <mathjax>#1:1#</mathjax> <strong>mole ratio</strong> to produce aqueous sodium acetate and water.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"CH"_ 3"COOH"_ ((aq)) + "NaOH"_ ((aq)) -> "CH"_ 3"COONa"_ ( (aq)) + "H"_ 2"O"_ ((l))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>As you can see, you have more moles of sodium hydroxide than of acetic acid, so right from the start, you can say that sodium hydroxide is <em>in excess</em>, which implies that acetic acid is the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/stoichiometry/limiting-reagent">limiting reagent</a></strong>. </p>
<p>This means that acetic acid will be <strong>completely consumed</strong> by the reaction. After the reaction is complete, the solution will contain <mathjax>#0#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of acetic acid and </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"0.10 moles " - " 0.0167 moles" = "0.0833 moles NaOH"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sodium hydroxide is a <strong>strong base</strong>, so it dissociates completely in aqueous solution to produce hydroxide anions in a <mathjax>#1:1#</mathjax> mole ratio. This means that the resulting solution will contain <mathjax>#0.0833#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of hydroxide anions.</p>
<p>You can thus say that the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">molarity</a> of the hydroxide anions in the resulting solution will be </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["OH"^(-)] = "0.0833 moles"/"2 L" = "0.04165 M"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Finally, you know that an aqueous solution at <mathjax>#25^@"C"#</mathjax> has</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH + pOH = 14"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Since</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pOH" = - log(["OH"^(-)])#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>you can say that the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the solution is given by the equation</p>

<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 14 + log(["OH"^(-)])#</mathjax></p>

<p>Plug in your value to find </p>

<div class="markdown"><p>Let's assume for a second that you're not familiar with the equation for <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/dilution-calculations">dilution calculations</a>.</p>
<p>What would your approach be here? </p>
<p>As you know, <em>diluting</em> a solution means keeping the number of moles of <em><a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solute">solute</a></em> <strong>constant</strong> while <strong>increasing</strong> the total volume of the solution by adding more <em><a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solvent">solvent</a></em>. </p>
<p><img alt="http://slideplayer.com/slide/2557276/" src="https://useruploads.socratic.org/ADMgZ3mSQmrDL0e8987w_slide_29.jpg"/> </p>
<p>Since <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">molarity</a> is defined as moles of solute per liters of solution, diluting a solution will result in a <strong>decrease</strong> in its concentration. </p>
<p>So, if the number of moles of solute <strong>must be constant</strong> in order for a dilution to be performed, you can use the molarity and volume of the <em>target solution</em> to figure out how many moles of solute <strong>must be present</strong> in the sample of stock solution you're diluting. </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)(c = n/V implies n = c * V)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#n_(HCl) = "0.250 M" * "6.00 L" = "1.5 moles HCl"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now all you have to do is figure out what volume of <mathjax>#"6.0 M"#</mathjax> stock solution will contain <mathjax>#1.5#</mathjax> moles of hydrochloric acid </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)(c = n/V implies V = n/c)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#V_"stock" = (1.5 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles"))))/(6.0 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles")))/"L") = "0.25 L"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Expressed in <em>milliliters</em>, the answer will be </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#V_"stock" = color(green)("250 mL") ->#</mathjax> <em>rounded to two <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">sig figs</a></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is the principle behind the equation for <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/dilution-calculations">dilution calculations</a>, which looks like this </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)(c_1V_1 = c_2V_2)" "#</mathjax>, where</p>

The #"pK"_b# is #4.96#.</h1> | null | 8.44 | <div class="answerDescription">
<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>This looks like a job for the <strong>Henderson - Hasselbalch equation</strong>, which for a weak base/conjugate acid buffer looks like this</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 14 - overbrace(["p"K_b + log( (["conjugate acid"])/(["weak base"]))])^(color(blue)("the pOH of the buffer solution"))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>As you know, you have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"p"K_b = - log(K_b)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>In your case, you know that the buffer contains <mathjax>#"0.110 M"#</mathjax> of the weak base and <mathjax>#"0.440 M"#</mathjax> of its conjugate acid, so even without doing any calculations, you should be able to say that the <mathjax>#"pOH"#</mathjax> of the buffer will be <strong>higher</strong> than the <mathjax>#"p"K_b#</mathjax> of the weak base. </p>
<p>In other words, the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the buffer will be <strong>lower</strong> than <mathjax>#14 - "p"K_b#</mathjax>, what you would get for a <mathjax>#"pOH"#</mathjax> equal to the <mathjax>#"p"K_b#</mathjax> of the weak base. </p>
<p>Plug in your values into the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation to find</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 14 - [-log(1.1 * 10^(-5)) + log((0.440 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M"))))/(0.110color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M")))))]#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#color(darkgreen)(ul(color(black)("pH" = 8.44)))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The answer is rounded to two <em>decimal places</em>, the number of <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">sig figs</a></strong> you have for the base dissociation constant.</p></div>

<div class="markdown"><p>Stefan has a good answer, but I thought I'd give another approach to this. For buffers (i.e. weak acid + conjugate base, weak base + conjugate acid), the <strong>Henderson-Hasselbalch equation</strong> applies.</p>
<p>To make it so I only have to know one Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, I use the <mathjax>#"pK"_a#</mathjax> one and recall the relationships to interconvert between <mathjax>#"pK"_a#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#"pK"_b#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax>, and <mathjax>#"pOH"#</mathjax>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = "pK"_a + log\frac(["A"^(-)])(["HA"])#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Using the idea that <mathjax>#"pK"_a + "pK"_b = 14#</mathjax>, we get:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#-log(K_b) = "pK"_b = -log(1.1 xx 10^(-5)) = 4.96#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#=> "pK"_a = 14 - 4.96 = 9.04#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>And thus, noting the difference in notation (treating the base as <mathjax>#"A"^(-)#</mathjax> or <mathjax>#"B"#</mathjax> and the conjugate acid as <mathjax>#"HA"#</mathjax> or <mathjax>#"BH"^(+)#</mathjax>), the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> is alternatively found as:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)("pH") = 9.04 + log (("0.110 M")/("0.440 M"))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#= 9.04 - log 4 = color(blue)(8.44)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>And this makes physical sense, as we started with a weak base, whose conjugate acid dissociates less (<mathjax>#K_a < K_b#</mathjax> if <mathjax>#K_b > 10^(-7)#</mathjax> at <mathjax>#25^@ "C"#</mathjax> and <mathjax>#"1 atm"#</mathjax>). </p>
<p>Furthermore, there is a higher concentration of conjugate acid than the weak base. So, we should expect the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> to be basic, but also more acidic than the <mathjax>#"pK"_a#</mathjax> of the conjugate acid. </p>
<hr/>
<p><strong>APPENDIX</strong></p>
<p>And just so you see, this gives the same equation Stefan has. Recall that:</p>
<ul>
<li>At <mathjax>#25^@ "C"#</mathjax> and <mathjax>#"1 atm"#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#"pK"_a + "pK"_b = 14 = "pK"_w#</mathjax></li>
<li><mathjax>#log(a/b) = -log(b/a)#</mathjax></li>
</ul>
<p>Therefore:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = (14 - "pK"_b) + log\frac(["A"^(-)])(["HA"])#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#= (14 - "pK"_b) - log\frac(["HA"])(["A"^(-)])#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#= 14 - ["pK"_b + log\frac(["HA"])(["A"^(-)])]#</mathjax></p>
<p>which is what Stefan used. </p>
</blockquote>
<p>With slightly changed notation, and knowing that <mathjax>#"pH" + "pOH" = 14#</mathjax> at <mathjax>#25^@ "C"#</mathjax> and <mathjax>#"1 atm"#</mathjax>, we can get the other form of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 14 - overbrace(["pK"_b + log\frac(["BH"^(+)])(["B"])])^("pOH")#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#= 14 - "pOH"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Thus, </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#barul(|stackrel(" ")(" " "pOH" = "pK"_b + log\frac(["BH"^(+)])(["B"])" ")|)#</mathjax></p>

<p>So in order to obtain <mathjax>#"2.15 mol NiCl"_2"#</mathjax>, you would use <mathjax>#"279 g NiCl"_2"#</mathjax>.</p></div>

<p><mathjax>#sf(K_w=1xx10^(-14)" ""mol"^(2)."l"^(-2) #</mathjax> at <mathjax>#sf(25^@"C"#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>This means that the concentration of <mathjax>#sf(OH^-#</mathjax> ions is <mathjax>#sf(10^(-7)"M")#</mathjax> arising from the water.</p>
<p>A tiny amount of <mathjax>#sf(OH^-)#</mathjax> ions is added such that the concentration is <mathjax>#sf(3.9xx10^(-8)"M"#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>It might be reasoned, therefore, that the total <mathjax>#sf(OH^-)#</mathjax> ion concentration will be <mathjax>#sf((3.9xx10^(-8))+10^(-7)"M"#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>However this will not be the <mathjax>#sf(OH^-)#</mathjax> ion concentration <strong>at equilibrium.</strong></p>
<p>By adding those ions we have disturbed a system which is at equilibrium.</p>
<p>Le Chatelier's Principle tells us that the system will respond by opposing that change, thus restoring the equilibrium which represents the lowest energy state.</p>
<p>The reaction quotient <mathjax>#sf(Q)#</mathjax> is given by:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(Q=[H_((aq))^(+)][OH_((aq))^-]=10^(-7)xx[(3.9xx10^(-8)+10^(-7))])#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#=sf(1.39xx10^(-14)" ""mol"^2."l"^(-2))#</mathjax></p>
<p>This shows that <mathjax>#sf(Q>K)#</mathjax> which confirms that the equilibrium will shift to the left. More <mathjax>#sf(H^+)#</mathjax> will be consumed by the extra <mathjax>#sf(OH^-)#</mathjax> ions to produce more water.</p>
<p>To calculate the <mathjax>#sf(pH)#</mathjax> we need to get the concentration of <mathjax>#sf(H^+)#</mathjax> ions at equilibrium which we can do by setting up an <strong>ICE</strong> table:</p>
<p><mathjax>#" "sf(H_2O" "rightleftharpoons" "H^(+)" "+" "OH^(-))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(color(red)(I)" "--" "10^(-7)" "1.39xx10^(-7))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(color(red)(C)" "--" " -x" " -x)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(color(red)(E)" "--" "(10^(-7)-x)" "(1.39xx10^(-7)-x))#</mathjax></p>
<p>So:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(K_(w)=(10^(-7)-x)(1.39xx10^(-7))=10^(-14))#</mathjax></p>
<p>This simplifies to:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(x^2-(2.39xx10^(-7))x+0.39xx10^(-14)=0)#</mathjax></p>
<p>This is a quadratic equation which can be solved using the quadratic formula.</p>
<p>Discarding the absurd root we get:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(x=0.1765xx10^(-7)"mol/l")#</mathjax></p>
<p>So:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf([H_(eqm)^(+)]=(1xx10^(-7)-0.1765xx10^(-7))=0.824xx10^(-7)"mol/l")#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(pH=-log[H_(eqm)^+]=-log[0.824xx10^(-7)]#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(color(red)(pH=7.08))#</mathjax></p>
<p>You may see this more generally described as "The Common Ion Effect" . <mathjax>#sf(OH^-)#</mathjax>being the common ion in question. </p></div>

<p>You will get 3 moles of <mathjax>#O_2#</mathjax> for every 2 moles of <mathjax>#KClO_3#</mathjax> you decompose.</p>
<p>Now let's substitute the number of moles of <mathjax>#KClO_3#</mathjax> that you actually started with:</p>
<p><mathjax>#5.05 " moles "KClO_3 xx (3 " moles " O_2)/(2 " moles " KClO_3) = 7.575 " moles " O_2#</mathjax></p>
<p>Finally, since we started with three <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">significant figures</a>, we have to end up with three significant figures since all we did was multiply and divide, so...</p>
<p>7.58 moles <mathjax>#O_2#</mathjax></p></div>

<div class="markdown"><p>Before the calculation it is helpful to make a prediction for the electrode potential using <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/chemical-equilibrium/le-chatelier-s-principle">Le Chatelier's Principle</a>:</p>
<p>The 1/2 cell reaction is:</p>
<p><mathjax>#stackrel(color(white)(xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx))(color(blue)(larr)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(MnO_4^(-)+8H^++5erightleftharpoonsMn^(2+)+4H_2O)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(color(red)(0.0001Mcolor(white)(xxxxxxxxx)0.0005M)#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(E^@=+1.51color(white)(x)V)#</mathjax></p>
<p>You can see that the concentration of <mathjax>#sf(MnO_4^-)#</mathjax> has been <strong>reduced</strong> relative to the concentration of <mathjax>#sf(Mn^(2+))#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>According to Le Chatelier we would predict that the position of equilibrium will shift to the <strong>left</strong> to oppose that change, as shown by the blue arrow.</p>
<p>You can see from the 1/2 equation that this will tend to push out more electrons so we would expect the electrode potential to be <strong>less</strong> positive.</p>
<p>We can calculate this using The Nernst Equation:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(E=E^(@)-(RT)/(zF)ln(([red])/(["ox"]))#</mathjax></p>
<p>At 298K this simplifies to:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(E=E^@+(0.05916)/(z)log((["ox"])/([red])))#</mathjax></p>
<p>Where <strong>z</strong> is the number of moles of electrons transferred.</p>
<p>This becomes:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(E=E^@+(0.05916)/(5)log(([MnO_4^-][H^+]^8)/([Mn^(2+)]))#</mathjax></p>
<p>Since we are at <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/acids-and-bases/the-ph-concept">pH</a> = 0 we can say that <mathjax>#sf([H^+]=1color(white)(x)M)#</mathjax></p>
<p>This becomes:</p>
<p><mathjax>#sf(E=E^@+(0.05916)/(5)log(([MnO_4^-])/([Mn^(2+)]))#</mathjax></p>

<p>As you can see, this is in accordance with our prediction. The potential of the electrode has been made slightly less positive.</p>
<p>Put simply, reducing the concentration of Mn(VII) relative to Mn(II) has made the Mn(VII) slightly <strong>less</strong> effective as an oxidising agent.</p></div>

Suppose 1.55 L of an ideal gas under 6.38 atm of pressure at 20.5°C is expanded to 6.95 L at 1.00 atm. What is the new temperature?</h1> | null | -67.2 ℃ | <div class="answerDescription">
<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The pressure, temperature, and volume of the gas will change when going from its initial state to its final state, which tells you that you must use the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/the-behavior-of-gases/combined-gas-law">combined gas law</a> to find the new <em>temperature</em> of the gas. </p>
<p>As you know, when the <em>number of moles</em> of gas is <strong>kept constant</strong>, pressure, volume, and temperature have the following relationship</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)((P_1V_1)/T_1 = (P_2V_2)/T_2)" "#</mathjax>, where</p>
</blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#P_1#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#V_1#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#T_1#</mathjax> - the pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas at an initial state<br/>
<mathjax>#P_2#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#V_2#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#T_2#</mathjax> - the pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas at a final state</p>
<p>From this point on, the important thing to remember is that the temperature of the gas <strong>must</strong> be expressed in <em>Kelvin</em>, so don't forget to convert it from the given degrees Celsius. </p>
<p>So, rearrange that equation to solve for <mathjax>#T_2#</mathjax></p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#T_2 = P_2/P_1 * V_2/V_1 * T_1#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Plug in your values to get</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#T_2 = (1.00 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("atm"))))/(6.38color(red)(cancel(color(black)("atm")))) * (6.95 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("L"))))/(1.55color(red)(cancel(color(black)("L")))) * (273.15 + 20.5)"K"#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#T_2 = "206.38 K"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Rounded to three <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">sig figs</a>, the answer will be </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#T_2 = color(green)("206 K")#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>If you want, you can express the answer in degrees Celsius</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#T_2[""^@"C"] = 206 - 273.15 = -67.2^@"C"#</mathjax></p>

<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The idea here is that the <strong>molar mass</strong> of a compound can be used as a <em>conversion factor</em> between <strong>grams</strong> and <strong>moles</strong>.</p>
<p>As you know, the molar mass tells you the mass of <strong>one mole</strong> of a given compound. In your case, the compound is said to have a molar mass equal to <mathjax>#"44 g mol"^(-1)#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>This means that if you were to measure out exactly <strong>one mole</strong> of this compound, its mass would be equal to <mathjax>#"44 g"#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>Now, your sample contains <mathjax>#1.532#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of this unknown compound. To use the molar mass a conversion factor, place the unit that you <strong>have</strong> on the bottom of the fraction and the unit that you <strong>need</strong> on the top of the fraction</p>
<p>You will thus have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(blue)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)"have moles" * "44 grams"/"1 mole" = "get grams"color(white)(a/a)|)))#</mathjax></p>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>By definition, the oxidation state is the charge left on the central atom, when all the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/bonding-basics/bonding">bonding</a> atoms are removed with the charge (the electrons) devolved to the most electronegative atom.....</p>
<p>We gots <mathjax>#""^(-)O(O=)C-C(=O)O^(-)#</mathjax>. The oxidation number of oxygen is usually <mathjax>#-II#</mathjax> and it is here. The sum of the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/electrochemistry/oxidation-numbers">oxidation numbers</a> equals the charge on the ion.....here <mathjax>#-2#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>And so <mathjax>#2xxC_"oxidation number"+4xx(-2)=-2#</mathjax></p>
<p>And <mathjax>#2xxC_"oxidation number"=+6#</mathjax></p>
<p>And <mathjax>#C_"oxidation number"=+III#</mathjax> if you will forgive me mixing Roman and Arabic numerals.........of course you will. </p>
<p>Another way we could look at this is to split the <mathjax>#C-C#</mathjax> bond in oxalate ion to give <mathjax>#2xx""^(-)O(O=)C*#</mathjax>, <mathjax>#C(+III)#</mathjax> as required. And thus the carbon in oxalic acid is almost fully oxidized. </p></div>

<div class="markdown"><p>Your tool of choice here will be the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solubility-graphs">solubility graph</a></strong> for ammonium chloride, <mathjax>#"NH"_4"Cl"#</mathjax>, which looks like this</p>
<p><img alt="http://www.kentchemistry.com/links/Kinetics/SolubilityCurves.htm" src="https://useruploads.socratic.org/dIdVaFuQSxWIjjGwFEgn_Solubi1.gif"/> </p>
<p>The solubility graph provides you with information on the <em>solubility</em> of a given salt at various temperatures. In this case, the graph shows you the solubility of ammonium chloride <strong>per</strong> <mathjax>#"100 g"#</mathjax> <strong>of water</strong> at temperatures ranging from <mathjax>#0^@"C"#</mathjax> to <mathjax>#100^@"C"#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>The actual curve represents the <strong>solubility</strong> of the salt, i.e. the <em>maximum</em> amount that can be dissolved in <mathjax>#"100 g"#</mathjax> of water to form a <strong>saturated solution</strong>. </p>
<p>At <mathjax>#70^@"C"#</mathjax>, ammonium chloride has a solubility of about <mathjax>#"62 g / 100 g H"_2"O"#</mathjax>. This tells you that can only hope to dissolve <mathjax>#"62 g"#</mathjax> of ammonium chloride for every <mathjax>#"100 g"#</mathjax> of water before the solution becomes <strong>saturated</strong>.</p>
<p>After this point, any extra salt added would <em>remain undissolved</em>. </p>
<p>So, you know how much salt can be dissolved in <mathjax>#"100 g"#</mathjax> of water, so use this as a <em>conversion factor</em> to find the solubility of the salt in <mathjax>#"200 g"#</mathjax> of water</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#200 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g H"_2"O"))) * ("62 g NH"_4"Cl")/(100color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g H"_2"O")))) = "124 g NH"_4"Cl"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>I will leave the answer rounded to two <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">sig figs</a></strong>, but keep in mind that you only have one sig fig for the mass of water</p>

<div class="markdown"><p>You can actually use multiple approaches to solve this problem, but they revolve around a couple of <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/unit-conversions">unit conversions</a>.</p>
<p>One way to approach this is to use the given concentration to figure out how many <em>milligrams</em> of sodium chloride you get <strong>per milliliter</strong> of solution. </p>
<p>This will allow you to find the number of <em>milligrams</em> of sodium chloride present in <mathjax>#"15.0 mL"#</mathjax> of this solution, provided that you use the conversion factors</p>

<p>So, if your solution contains <mathjax>#"6.277 g"#</mathjax> of sodium chloride <strong>per liter</strong>, you can say that it contains </p>

</blockquote>
<p>You now know that </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"6.277 g/L " = " 6.277 mg/mL"#</mathjax></p>

<p>So, if <mathjax>#"1 mL"#</mathjax> of this solution contains <mathjax>#"6.277 mg"#</mathjax> of sodium chloride, <mathjax>#"15.0 mL"#</mathjax> will contain </p>

<div class="markdown"><p>The important thing to realize here is that you're working under <strong>STP conditions</strong>, which implies that you can use the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/the-behavior-of-gases/molar-volume-of-a-gas-224-l-at-stp">molar volume of a gas at STP</a> to find how many <em>moles</em> of helium will occupy that volume. </p>
<p>Now, the <strong><a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/the-behavior-of-gases/molar-volume-of-a-gas-224-l-at-stp">molar volume of a gas</a></strong> represents the volume occupied by <strong>one mole</strong> of a gas under some specific conditions for <em>pressure</em> and <em>temperature</em>. </p>

<p>This of course implies that <strong>one mole</strong> of <strong>any</strong> ideal gas will occupy <mathjax>#"22.7 L"#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>In your case, the volume of the gas is said to be equal to <mathjax>#"500 L"#</mathjax>. This means that you will have </p>

<div class="markdown"><p>That is <mathjax>#1*atm#</mathjax> of pressure will support a column of mercury that is <mathjax>#760*mm#</mathjax> high. This is a convenient laboratory measurement that I hope has been shown to you in the lab. The difference between mercury columns can thus be related to differences between absolute pressures. A mercury column is thus useful for pressures BELOW <mathjax>#1*atm#</mathjax>. IT IS NOT USED FOR PRESSURES ABOVE <mathjax>#1* atm#</mathjax>. (Why not? Because you will get mercury all over the lab, and guess who is going to clean it up.)</p>
<p>And of course we need (ii) a stoichiometrically balanced equation:</p>
<p><mathjax>#Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) rarr ZnCl_2(aq) + H_2(g)uarr#</mathjax></p>
<p>So for each equiv metal, 1 equiv of dihydrogen gas results. </p>
<p><mathjax>#"Moles of zinc"#</mathjax> <mathjax>#-=#</mathjax> <mathjax>#(21*g)/(65.38*g*mol^-1)=0.321*mol#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>And thus, by the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/stoichiometry/stoichiometry">stoichiometry</a>, <mathjax>#0.321*mol#</mathjax> <mathjax>#H_2(g)#</mathjax> will result. </p>
<p>And so now, this is an Ideal Gas Equation, where we solve for volume:</p>
<p><mathjax>#V=(nRT)/P=(0.321*cancel(mol)xx0.0821*(L*cancel"atm")/(cancel(K^-1*mol^-1))xx286*cancelK)/((704cancel(*mm*Hg))/(760cancel(*mm*Hg*atm^-1))#</mathjax></p>
<p>You can do the math. I get an answer of approx. <mathjax>#8*L#</mathjax> at this pressure. And this is consistent with the known molar volume of an Ideal Gas under standard conditions, i.e. approx. <mathjax>#25*L#</mathjax>.</p>

<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The important thing to remember about <strong><a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/ionic-bonds-and-formulas/ionic-compounds">ionic compounds</a></strong> is that they are <strong>electrically neutral</strong>. </p>
<p>This means that the <em>overall</em> positive charge coming from the cations <strong>must be balanced</strong> by the <em>overall</em> negative charge coming from the anions. </p>
<p>Now, your theoretical element <mathjax>#"X"#</mathjax> forms an ionic compound with the <em>oxide anion</em>, <mathjax>#"O"^(2-)#</mathjax>. This means that you need an <em>overall</em> positive charge of <mathjax>#2+#</mathjax> in order to balance the negative <mathjax>#2-#</mathjax> charge present on the oxide anion. </p>
<p>Notice that the formula of the compound is <mathjax>#"X"_2"O"#</mathjax>. This tells you that one <em>formula unit</em> of this oxide will contain </p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li><em><strong>two</strong></em> <mathjax>#"X"#</mathjax> <em>cations</em></li>
<li><em><strong>one</strong></em> <mathjax>#"O"^(2-)#</mathjax> <em>anion</em></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>Well, if you have <strong>two</strong> <mathjax>#"X"#</mathjax> cations that must have an overall charge of <mathjax>#2+#</mathjax>, it follows that <strong>each</strong> <mathjax>#"X"#</mathjax> cation will have a charge of <mathjax>#1+#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>So, one formula unit for this oxide will contain <strong>two</strong> <mathjax>#"X"^(+)#</mathjax> cations and <strong>one</strong> <mathjax>#"O"^(2-)#</mathjax> anion. </p></div>

<p>So, you're dealing with <em>formic acid</em>, <mathjax>#"HCOOH"#</mathjax>, a weak acid that does not dissociate completely in aqueous solution. This means that an equilibrium will be established between the unionized and ionized forms of the acid. </p>
<p>You can use an <strong>ICE table</strong> and the initial <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">concentration</a> ofthe acid to determine the concentrations of the conjugate base and of the hydronium ions tha are produced when the acid ionizes</p>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The first thing to do here is use the <em><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">molarity</a></em> and <em>volume</em> of the solution to determine the <strong>number of moles</strong> of <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solute">solute</a>, which in your case is potassium bromide, <mathjax>#"KBr"#</mathjax>, it contains.</p>
<p>Once you know that, you can use the compound's <strong>molar mass</strong> to convert to <em>grams</em>. </p>
<p>So, you know that a <mathjax>#"0.870 M"#</mathjax> potassium bromide solution will contain <mathjax>#0.870#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of potassium bromide <strong>for every liter</strong> of solution. </p>
<p>In your case, the solution is said to have a volume of</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#795 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mL"))) * "1 L"/(10^3color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mL")))) = "0.795 L"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>which means that it will contain </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#0.795 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("L solution"))) * "0.870 moles KBr"/(1color(red)(cancel(color(black)("L solution")))) = "0.69165 moles KBr"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, potassium bromide has a molar mass of <mathjax>#"119.002 g mol"^(-1)#</mathjax>, which means that <strong>every mole</strong> of potassium bromide has a mass of <mathjax>#"119.002 g"#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>Your solution will thus contain </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#0.69165 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles KBr"))) * "119.002 g"/(1color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mole KBr")))) = color(green)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)("82.3 g")color(white)(a/a)|)))#</mathjax></p>

<div class="markdown"><p><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">Molarity</a> is defined as the number of moles in a liter. If the solution is <mathjax>#2.5M#</mathjax>, the molarity of the <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/a-first-introduction-to-matter/elements">elements</a> is the same basic amount, modified by the number of atoms of each element in the original compound.</p>
<p>In this case, we have one <mathjax>#Ca#</mathjax> atom and two <mathjax>#Cl#</mathjax> atoms in the compound. So, we will have <mathjax>#2.5M Ca^(+2)#</mathjax> and <mathjax>#2.5 xx 2 = 5M Cl^(-1)#</mathjax> ions in solution.</p></div>

<p>5.) Balance out the remaining <mathjax>#O#</mathjax> atoms. Since the <mathjax>#O#</mathjax> atoms on the right side is an odd number, you can use your knowledge of fractions to get the complete balanced equation.</p>
<p>Left side:<br/>
<mathjax>#C#</mathjax> = <strong>6</strong><br/>
<mathjax>#H#</mathjax> = <strong>6</strong><br/>
<mathjax>#O#</mathjax> = 2 x <mathjax>#color(blue)(15/2)#</mathjax> = <strong>15</strong></p>
<p>Right side:<br/>
<mathjax>#C#</mathjax> = 1 x <mathjax>#color(red)(6)#</mathjax> = <strong>6</strong><br/>
<mathjax>#H#</mathjax> = 2 x <mathjax>#color(green)(3)#</mathjax> = <strong>6</strong><br/>
<mathjax>#O#</mathjax> = (2 x <mathjax>#color(red)(6)#</mathjax>) + (1 x <mathjax>#color(green)(3)#</mathjax>) = <strong>15</strong></p>
<p><mathjax>#C_6#</mathjax><mathjax>#H_6#</mathjax> + <mathjax>#color(blue)(15/2)#</mathjax><mathjax>#O_2#</mathjax> <mathjax>#rarr#</mathjax> <mathjax>#color(red)(6)#</mathjax><mathjax>#CO_2#</mathjax>+ <mathjax>#color(green)(3)#</mathjax><mathjax>#H_2#</mathjax>O</p>
<p>The equation is now balanced.</p>
<p>If you don't like fractions, you can always multiply the whole chemical equation by the denominator.</p>

<li><mathjax>#chi_ ("H"_ 2"O")#</mathjax> is the <strong>mole faction</strong> of water</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, let's assume that you pick a sample of this solution that contains <strong>exactly</strong> <mathjax>#1#</mathjax> <strong>mole</strong> of particles, i.e. that the <strong>total number of moles</strong> present in the sample is equal to <mathjax>#1#</mathjax>. </p>
<p>By definition, the mole fraction of sodium chloride is equal to the number of moles of sodium chloride divided by the <strong>total number of moles</strong> present in the solution. </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#chi_( "NaCl") = ("moles of NaCl")/"total moles"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>So in this case, you'd have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#0.125 = ("moles of NaCl")/"1 mole"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>which implies that the sample contains <mathjax>#0.125#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of sodium chloride. Following the same logic or using equation <mathjax>#color(darkorange)("(*)")#</mathjax>, you can determine that this sample contains </p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"1 mole" \ - \ "0.125 moles" = "0.875 moles H"_2"O"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Next, use the <strong>molar masses</strong> of the two <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/a-first-introduction-to-matter/compounds">compounds</a> to convert the number of moles to grams.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#0.125 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles NaCl"))) * "58.44 g"/(1color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mole NaCl")))) = "7.3050 g"#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#0.875 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles H"_2"O"))) * "18.015 g"/(1color(red)(cancel(color(black)("mole H"_2"O")))) = "15.7631 g"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>You can now say that the total mass of the sample is</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"7.3050 g" \ + \ "15.7631 g" = "23.0681 g"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Finally, to find the percent by mass of sodium chloride, you need to determine the mass of sodium chloride present <strong>for every</strong> <mathjax>#"100. g"#</mathjax> of this solution. </p>
<p>Your sample contains <mathjax>#"7.3050 g"#</mathjax> of sodium chloride in <mathjax>#"23.0681 g"#</mathjax> of the solution, which means that you have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#100. color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g solution"))) * ("7.3050 g NaCl")/(23.0681color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g solution")))) = "31.7 g NaCl"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Therefore, you can say that the percent by mass of sodium chloride is</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#color(darkgreen)(ul(color(black)("% NaCl" = 31.7%)))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The answer is rounded to three <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures">sig figs</a></strong>, the number of sig figs you have for the mole fraction of sodium chloride.</p></div>

<div class="markdown"><p>The empirical formula of a compound is the lowest whole number ratio of <a href="http://socratic.org/chemistry/a-first-introduction-to-matter/elements">elements</a> in the compound. This ratio becomes the subscripts for the empirical formula.</p>
<p>The molecular formula <mathjax>#"H"_2"O"_2"#</mathjax> is a multiple of the empirical formula.

<p>And now it is an Ideal Gas calculation (mind you if we collect the gas over water, we should include the <mathjax>#"saturated vapour pressure"#</mathjax>, to account for the water vapour collected with the dihydrogen. Since there are no details in the initial conditions, I can ignore these data.)</p>
<p><mathjax>#V=(nRT)/P=#</mathjax><br/>
<mathjax>#(0.0185*molxx0.0821*L*atm*K^-1*mol^-1xx293.15*K)/(1.03*atm)=0.431*L=??*mL#</mathjax>.</p>
<p>This is experiment that could be performed in a high school lab with litre graduated cylinders, with which to collect the gas. </p></div>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The trick here is to recognize the fact that you're dealing with a <strong>buffer solution</strong> that contains nitrous acid, <mathjax>#"HNO"_2#</mathjax>, a <strong>weak acid</strong>, and the nitrite anion, <mathjax>#"NO"_2^(-)#</mathjax>, its <strong>conjugate base</strong>, delivered to the solution by the soluble salt sodium nitrite.</p>
<p>The <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of a weak acid/conjugate base buffer can be calculated using the <strong>Henderson - Hasselbalch equation</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = "p"K_a + log( (["conjugate base"])/(["weak acid"]))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"p"K_a = - log(K_a)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>and <mathjax>#K_a#</mathjax> is the <strong>acid dissociation constant</strong> of the weak acid. </p>
<p>Nitrous acid has an acid dissociation constant equal to</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#K_a = 4.0 * 10^(-4)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="http://clas.sa.ucsb.edu/staff/Resource%20folder/Chem109ABC/Acid,%20Base%20Strength/Table%20of%20Acids%20w%20Kas%20and%20pKas.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://clas.sa.ucsb.edu/staff/Resource%20folder/Chem109ABC/Acid,%20Base%20Strength/Table%20of%20Acids%20w%20Kas%20and%20pKas.pdf</a></p>
<p>which means that you can write the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation as</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = -log(4.0 * 10^(-4)) + log( (["NO"_2^(-)])/(["HNO"_2]))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 3.40 + log( (["NO"_2^(-)])/(["HNO"_2]))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, the problem wants you to assume that no volume change occurs when you add the salt, so you can say that</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["HNO"_2] = "0.500 M"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>In order to find the concentration of the nitrite anion, use the <strong>molar mass</strong> of <em>sodium nitrite</em> to calculate the number of moles of salt dissolved in the solution.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#25.00 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "1 mole NaNO"_2/(68.9953color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g")))) = "0.36234 moles NaNO"_2#</mathjax></p>

<p>Sine sodium nitrite dissociates in a <mathjax>#1:1#</mathjax> mole ratio to produce nitrite anions</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"NaNO"_ (2(aq)) -> "Na"_ ((aq))^(+) + "NO"_ (2(aq))^(-)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>you can say that the solution will contain <mathjax>#0.36234#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of nitrite anions in <mathjax>#"750.0 mL"#</mathjax> of solution. </p>
<p>This implies that the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">molarity</a></strong> of the nitrite anions, which is calculated by dividing the number of moles of <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solute">solute</a> by the total volume of the solution <strong>in liters</strong>, will be</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["NO"_2^(-)] = "0.36234 moles"/(750.0 * 10^(-3)color(white)(.)"L") = "0.36234 moles"/0.750 * 1/"1 L"#</mathjax></p>
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#= "0.48312 moles"/"1 L" = "0.48312 M"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>You can now plug this into the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation to find the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the solution</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 3.40 + log( (0.48312 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M"))))/(0.500color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M")))))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#color(darkgreen)(ul(color(black)("pH" = 3.385)))#</mathjax></p>

<p>Notice that you have</p>

<p>This tells you that the solution contains more weak acid than conjugate base, which implies that the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the solution will be <strong>lower</strong> than the <mathjax>#"p"K_a#</mathjax> of the weak acid.</p>
<p>In your case, you have</p>

<h4 class="answerHeader">Explanation:</h4>
<div>
<div class="markdown"><p>The trick here is to recognize the fact that you're dealing with a <strong>buffer solution</strong> that contains nitrous acid, <mathjax>#"HNO"_2#</mathjax>, a <strong>weak acid</strong>, and the nitrite anion, <mathjax>#"NO"_2^(-)#</mathjax>, its <strong>conjugate base</strong>, delivered to the solution by the soluble salt sodium nitrite.</p>
<p>The <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of a weak acid/conjugate base buffer can be calculated using the <strong>Henderson - Hasselbalch equation</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = "p"K_a + log( (["conjugate base"])/(["weak acid"]))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"p"K_a = - log(K_a)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>and <mathjax>#K_a#</mathjax> is the <strong>acid dissociation constant</strong> of the weak acid. </p>
<p>Nitrous acid has an acid dissociation constant equal to</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#K_a = 4.0 * 10^(-4)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="http://clas.sa.ucsb.edu/staff/Resource%20folder/Chem109ABC/Acid,%20Base%20Strength/Table%20of%20Acids%20w%20Kas%20and%20pKas.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://clas.sa.ucsb.edu/staff/Resource%20folder/Chem109ABC/Acid,%20Base%20Strength/Table%20of%20Acids%20w%20Kas%20and%20pKas.pdf</a></p>
<p>which means that you can write the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation as</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = -log(4.0 * 10^(-4)) + log( (["NO"_2^(-)])/(["HNO"_2]))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 3.40 + log( (["NO"_2^(-)])/(["HNO"_2]))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, the problem wants you to assume that no volume change occurs when you add the salt, so you can say that</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["HNO"_2] = "0.500 M"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>In order to find the concentration of the nitrite anion, use the <strong>molar mass</strong> of <em>sodium nitrite</em> to calculate the number of moles of salt dissolved in the solution.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#25.00 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g"))) * "1 mole NaNO"_2/(68.9953color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g")))) = "0.36234 moles NaNO"_2#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sine sodium nitrite dissociates in a <mathjax>#1:1#</mathjax> mole ratio to produce nitrite anions</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"NaNO"_ (2(aq)) -> "Na"_ ((aq))^(+) + "NO"_ (2(aq))^(-)#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>you can say that the solution will contain <mathjax>#0.36234#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of nitrite anions in <mathjax>#"750.0 mL"#</mathjax> of solution. </p>
<p>This implies that the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/molarity">molarity</a></strong> of the nitrite anions, which is calculated by dividing the number of moles of <a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/solutions-and-their-behavior/solute">solute</a> by the total volume of the solution <strong>in liters</strong>, will be</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["NO"_2^(-)] = "0.36234 moles"/(750.0 * 10^(-3)color(white)(.)"L") = "0.36234 moles"/0.750 * 1/"1 L"#</mathjax></p>
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#= "0.48312 moles"/"1 L" = "0.48312 M"#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>You can now plug this into the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation to find the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the solution</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 3.40 + log( (0.48312 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M"))))/(0.500color(red)(cancel(color(black)("M")))))#</mathjax></p>
<p><mathjax>#color(darkgreen)(ul(color(black)("pH" = 3.385)))#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The answer is rounded to three <strong>decimal places</strong>, the number of sig figs you have for the molarity of the nitrous acid. </p>
<p>Finally, does the result make sense?</p>
<p>Notice that you have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#["NO"_2^(-)] > ["NO"_2]#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>This tells you that the solution contains more weak acid than conjugate base, which implies that the <mathjax>#"pH"#</mathjax> of the solution will be <strong>lower</strong> than the <mathjax>#"p"K_a#</mathjax> of the weak acid.</p>
<p>In your case, you have</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#"pH" = 3.385 < "p"K_a = 3.40" " ->#</mathjax> makes sense. </p>

<div class="markdown"><p>The first thing that you need to do here is to figure out the <strong>theoretical yield</strong> of the reaction.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>You know that the reaction consumes <mathjax>#5#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of oxygen gas for every <mathjax>#1#</mathjax> <strong>mole</strong> of propane that takes part in the reaction. </p>
<p>This means that, in order for the reaction to consume <mathjax>#7#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of propane, it must also consume</p>

<p><mathjax>#7.0 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles C"_3"H"_8))) * "5 moles O"_2/(1color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles C"_3"H"_8)))) = "35 moles O"_2#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Since you have only <mathjax>#7#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of oxygen gas, you can say that oxygen gas will be the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/stoichiometry/limiting-reagent">limiting reagent</a></strong>, i.e. it will be completely consumed before all the moles of propane will get the chance to react. </p>
<p>So the reaction will consume <mathjax>#7#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of oxygen gas and</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#7.0 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles O"_2))) * ("1 mole C"_3"H"_8)/(5color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles O"_2)))) = "1.4 moles C"_3"H"_8#</mathjax></p>

<p>In this case, you can say that the reaction can <strong>theoretically</strong> produce, i.e. what you would get at <mathjax>#100%#</mathjax> yield</p>
<blockquote>
<p><mathjax>#7 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles O"_2))) * "3 moles CO"_2/(5color(red)(cancel(color(black)("moles O"_2)))) = "4.2 moles CO"_2#</mathjax></p>
</blockquote>
<p>However, you know that the <strong>actual yield</strong> of the reaction is <mathjax>#4.1#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of carbon dioxide, so you can say that the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/stoichiometry/percent-yield">percent yield</a></strong> of the reaction was</p>

<p>You know that the reaction consumes <mathjax>#5#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of oxygen gas for every <mathjax>#1#</mathjax> <strong>mole</strong> of propane that takes part in the reaction. </p>

<p>Since you have only <mathjax>#7#</mathjax> <strong>moles</strong> of oxygen gas, you can say that oxygen gas will be the <strong><a href="https://socratic.org/chemistry/stoichiometry/limiting-reagent">limiting reagent</a></strong>, i.e. it will be completely consumed before all the moles of propane will get the chance to react. </p>
