Answer:

The two most obvious ways to restore balance to carbon cycles are:

1. To move away from our dependence on fossil fuels.

2. To farm in ways that retain more carbon for longer periods than conventional farming methods currently do.

If you mix 50mL of 0.1 M TRIS acid with 60 mL of0.2 M TRIS base, what will be the resulting pH?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

For TRIS acid:

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol$

For TRIS base:

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol$

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

$[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}$

$[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7$

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Gasoline has a density of .74g/mL. How many milliliter if gasoline have a mass of 2.5kg?

nata0808 [166]

Answer: 3378.4mL

Explanation:

density of Gasoline = 0.74g/mL.

Volume of gasoline in milliliter = ?

mass of gasoline = 2.5kg

(Since density is in grams per millilitre, convert mass in kilograms to grams)

If 1kg = 1000grams

2.5kg = 2.5 x 1000 = 2500grams

Recall that density is obtained by dividing the mass of a substance by its volume

i.e Density = Mass / Volume

0.74g/mL = 2500grams/Volume

Volume = (2500 grams / 0.74g/mL)

Volume = 3378.4mL

Thus, the volume of gasoline is 3378.4mL
