Round your calculated value for pH to two figures to the right of the decimal point. Significant constants: Ka1 of oxalic acid = 5.60 x 10-2 and Ka2 of oxalic acid = 5.42 x 10-5
1. The ionization constant (Kb) of trimethylamine ((CH)3)3N) is 7.40 x 10–5. If 5.911 grams of trimethylamine is dissolved in 50.0 mL of water, what are the equilibrium concentration of all species present? 2. A buildup of a certain monoprotic acid in the muscle tissues can cause pain during extreme physical activities. A 0.0288 M solution of this acid is found to have a pH of 2.345. Based on the table below, what most likely is the identity of this unknown acid?
A 1.0 M solution of a compound with 2 ionizable groups (pKa’s = 6.2 and 9.5; 100 mL total) has a pH of 6.8. If a biochemist adds 60 mL of 1.0 M HCl to this solution, the solution will change to pH: A) 5.60 B) 8.90 C) 9.13 D) 9.32 E) The pH cannot be determined from this information. I believe the answer is A, but I am saying this based on a guess: adding acid will lower the value of 6.8, and out of all the answers only 5.60 is lower than 6.8. But what are the maths and chemistry behind this? I'm not sure. Thank you for your help.
