Chemical Principles: The Quest for Insight
- When carbon dioxide dissolves in water it reacts to produce carbonic acid, H2CO3(aq), which can ionize in two steps. H2CO3(aq)HCO3(aq)+H+(aq)Kc1=4.2107HCO3(aq)CO32(aq)+H+(aq)Kc2=4.81011 Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction H2CO3(aq)CO32(aq)+2H+(aq)arrow_forwardActually, the carbon in CO2(g) is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the carbon in calcium carbonate(limestone). Verify this by determining the standardGibbs free energy change for the reaction of lime,CaO(s), with CO2(g) to make CaCO3(s).arrow_forwardThe pH of an aqueous solution of 0.176 M tellurous acid, H2TeO3 (aq), isarrow_forward
- The pH of an aqueous solution of 0.291 M ammonium perchlorate, NH4C1O4 (aq), is This solution is (Assume that K (NH3) = 1.80 × 10-5.)arrow_forwardThe following two reactions involve proton transfer. In each reaction, identify the acid and the base. Identify the conjugate base of the acid, and the conjugate acid of the base. Draw Lewis electron dot diagrams for each molecule, and describe the rear- rangement of bonding in the reaction as nonbonding electron pairs become cova- lently shared pairs and vice versa. (a) H¿O(€) + NH (aq) → H;0* (aq) + NH3(aq) (b) CH;CH;OH(aq) + NH7 (aq) → CH;CH;O¯(aq) + NH3(aq)arrow_forwardCalculate the pH of 0.225 M RbOH(aq).arrow_forward
- The pKb of the organic base nicotine (denoted Nic) is 5.98. Write the corresponding protonation reaction, the deprotonation reaction of the conjugate acid, and the value of pKa for nicotine.arrow_forwardCalculate the pH of 2.5 M CH2ClCOOH(aq) given that its Ka = 0.0014.arrow_forwardIn a solution of 0.015 mol L-1 HBr(aq) at 25 °C (a) What are the concentrations of the hydronium, H3O+, and hydroxide, OH-, ions? (b) What is the pH of the solution?arrow_forward
- The pH of an aqueous solution of 0.1690 M hydrosulfuric acid, H₂S (aq), isarrow_forwardThe pH of 0.40 M HF(aq) is 1.93. Calculate how the pH changes when 0.356 g of sodium fluoride is added to 50.0 mL of the solution. Assume that the volume change is small and can be neglectedarrow_forwardThe ionization constant of lactic acid, CH,CH(OH)CO,H, an acid found in the blood after strenuous exercise, is 1.36 x 10-4. What is the concentration of hydronium ion in the solution of 0.102 M lactic acid? CH;CH(OH)CO,H (aq) + H,O (1) → H;O• (aq) + CH;CH(OH)CO, (aq) O 0.00372 M O 0.0165 M O 0.00549 M O 0.227 Marrow_forward
