If a buffer solution is 0.250 M 0.250 M in a weak base ( K b = 8.0 × 10 − 5 ) Kb=8.0×10−5) and 0.540 M 0.540 M in its conjugate acid, what is the pH ?

9.57

Explanation:

Given that:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pOH of the basic buffer solution as:

So,  

pH + pOH = 14  

So, pH = 14 - 4.43 = 9.57

when the volume of gas is   changed from   717.73 ml   to 852 ml   the temperature will   change   from 315   c to 452   c

    calculation

this is calculated using the charles law formula

that is,   v1/t1 = v2/t2

          v1=?

        t1 = 315 c   into   kelvin = 315 +273 = 588 k

        v2 = 852   ml

        t2 = 425c + 273 =698 k

make v1   the subject of the formula ( by   multiplying both side by t1)

  v1=( v2 xt1) / t2

v1= (852 ml   x 588 k)/ 698 k= 717.73 ml
