Concept Introduction:
Mole is the S.I. unit. The expression for the number of moles is as follows:
The molarity and is equal to the number of moles of the solute dissolved in one liter of the solution.
The expression of molarity
A weak acid in water produces a hydrogen ion and conjugate base. When weak acid dissolves in water, some acid molecules transfer proton to water.
In solution of weak acid, the actual concentration of the acid molecules becomes less because partial dissociation of acid has occurred and lost protons to form hydrogen ions.
The reaction is as follows:
The expression of

- If 94.92 mL of a solution of HCI are equivalent to 43.76 mL of a solution of NaOH and if 49.14 mL of the latter will neutralize 0.2162 g of KHC2O4 H2C2O4 H2O. What volume of water should be added to a liter of the acid in order to make it 0.5050 normal?arrow_forwardCaproic acid, HC6H11O2, is found in coconut oil and is used in making artificial flavors. A solution is made by dissolving 0.450 mol of caproic acid in enough water to make 2.0 L of solution. The solution has [H3O+] of 1.7 x 10-3 M. What is Ka for caproic acid? Hint: Determine the initial concentration using the formula of molarity. Use the ICE table to determine the equilibrium concentrations. This is a reverse calculation of our example.arrow_forwardUsing chemical equations, show how the triprotic acid H3PO4H3PO4 ionizes in water. Phases are optional. Ka1: Ka2: Ka3:arrow_forward

If 20.1 grams of an aqueous solution of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3, contains 2.34 grams of aluminum nitrate, what is the percentage by mass of aluminum nitrate in the solution? C.) A sample of methane gas at a pressure of 0.638 atm and a temperature of 21.8 °C, occupies a volume of 11.1 liters. If the gas is compressed at constant temperature to a volume of 2.91 liters, the pressure of the gas sample will be__________ atm.

- Cranberry juice contains significant amounts of malic acid (H2C4H4O5), a diprotic acid, which accounts for its low pH. If one cup of cranberry juice contains 3.667 g of malic acid, calculate how many extra strength TUMS tablets would be needed to completely neutralize the malic acid (if extra-strength tablets contains 7.50 x 102 mg of CaCO3). Show your calculations in full.arrow_forwardThe average blood pH is 7.40. The blood volume in humans, on average, is 5 liters. On average bicarbonate concentration in blood is 25 mM. A vinegar jar has a label that says its acetic acid concentration is 3.0%, meaning 3.0 g of acetic acid in 100 mL vinegar. (1) How many mL of vinegar does a person have to intake in order to lower the blood pH to 7.25? (2) if ALL the bicarbonate in 5.0 L of blood is neutralized by vinegar, how many mL of vinegar will be needed? (3) When all the bicarbonate ions are neutralized to carbonic acid, what will be the resulting blood pH? Note: pKa values for carbonic acid (diprotic acid) are 6.4 and 10.3, respectively.arrow_forwardIf a vinegar solution contains 7.5% acetic acid, HC2H3O2, what is the molarity of the acetic acid (assume the density is 1.01 g/mL)?arrow_forward
