An acetic acid buffer solution is required to have a pH of 5.27. You have a solution that contains 0.010 mol of Acetic acid. What molarity of sodium acetate will you need to add to the solution

Molarity of sodium acetate you will need to add is 0.0324M

Explanation:

Assuming volume of the buffer is 1L.

The pH of a buffer can be determined using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

Where pKa is pKa of the weak acid,  [A⁻] molar concentration of conjugate base and [HA] molar concentration of weak acid

Replacing for the acetic buffer (pKa = 4.76):

pH = 4.76 + log [Sodium Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

As you have 0.010 moles of acetic acid in 1L:

[Acetic Acid] = 0.010mol / 1L = 0.010M

And you require a pH of 5.27:

5.27 = 4.76 + log [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

0.51 = log [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

10^0.51 = [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

3.236 =  [Sodium Acetate] / [0.010M]

3.236 [0.010M] = [Sodium Acetate]

0.0324M = [Sodium Acetate]

when atmosphere interacts with biosphere they focuses on on the sources and sinks of green house gases (ghgs) air pollutants, particular matters, water and energy between the earth's surface and the atmosphere. the biosphere affects the climate. the atmosphere and biosphere are in constant interaction with each other, and all living things rely on gases in the atmosphere for life. organisms such as animals take in oxygen gas form the atmosphere to use in every cell of their body for smooth functioning of daily routine exercises.

answer: a tank of height h is filled with water and sits on the ground. water squirts from a hole at a height y above the ground and has a range r. for two y values, 0 and h, r is zero. determine the value of y for which the range will be a maximum.
