[H+] = = SQRT(Ka*ca) = SQRT(1.7*10-5 * 0.10) = 1.3*10-3 mol/L, (thus pH = 2.9)

and

[CH3COOH] = ca - [CH3COO-] = 0.10 - 1.3*10-3 = 0.0987 = 0.10 mol/L,

all concentrations are at 25oC in water.

What happens when hcl is added to ch3cooh and ch3coo- buffer system?

When HCl is added to a CH3COOH and CH3COO- buffer system, the HCl will react with the CH3COO- ion to form more CH3COOH. This reaction helps to maintain the pH of the solution relatively constant, as the buffer system works to resist changes in acidity by adjusting the concentrations of the weak acid and its conjugate base.


Is acetate the same to acetic acid?

No. Acetate is the anion (negative ion) derived from acetic acid. Acetic acid is CH3COOH. Acetate is CH3COO-. Acetate ions exist in minute concentrations in a solution of acetic acid and can also be produce by neutralizing acetic acid with a base.


What is CH3COOH plus H2O?

CH3COOH (acetic acid) plus H2O (water) will result in the formation of H3O+ (hydronium ion) and CH3COO- (acetate ion) through the ionization of acetic acid in water. This is an acidic solution due to the presence of the hydronium ion.


How do you make Burow's solution?

Burow's solution, also known as aluminum acetate solution, is made by dissolving aluminum acetate in water. Typically, a common formulation involves mixing 1 part aluminum acetate with 2 parts water. It's important to stir the solution until the aluminum acetate is completely dissolved. Always follow safety guidelines and consult a pharmacist or healthcare professional for specific instructions and concentrations for medical use.


Does hydrogen acetate dissociate?

Yes, hydrogen acetate, more commonly called acetic acid, partially dissociates in water and is therefore a weak acid. It is what gives vinegar its smell and acidity.


A 0.20 mol L of both acetic and acid and sodium acetate has a pH of?

The pH of a solution containing 0.20 mol/L of acetic acid and its conjugate base, sodium acetate, depends on the specific concentrations of the acid and its conjugate base, as well as the ionization constant (Ka) of the acid. To calculate the pH, you need to set up an equilibrium expression and solve the equation.


What is meant by Sodium acetate is a basic salt?

Sodium acetate is called a basic salt because a solution of it in initially pure water has a pH value well above the neutral value of 7. This occurs because acetate ions when dissolved in water must come to an equilibrium in the ionic reaction C2H3O2-1 + H2O <-> C2H4O2 + OH-1 and sodium ions when dissolved in water must come to an equilibrium in the ionic reaction Na+1 + H2O <-> NaOH + H+1. Additionally, water itself must maintain an equilibrium in the ionic reaction H2O <-> H+1 + OH-1. The values of these three equilibrium constants are such that the net result is a higher concentration of hydroxide ions than of hydrogen ions in a solution of sodium acetate. These relative concentrations of hydroxide and hydrogen ions is the defining characteristic of a basic (or alkaline) aqueous solution: Such a relative concentration of hydroxide and of hydrogen ions, although not all the other characteristics of a sodium acetate solution, could be achieved by dissolving an appropriate amount of the base sodium hydroxide in initially pure water.


Is sodium acetate solution a metal?

No. Sodium acetate solution is a homogeneous mixture, which is a solution. Sodium acetate is an ionic compound formed from sodium ions and acetate ions. Sodium in sodium acetate no longer has the properties of sodium metal.


What colour is lead acetate solution?

Lead acetate solution is colorless to pale yellow in appearance.


There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc acetate is 43.0 what is the solubility product of this compound?

The solubility product constant (Ksp) for zinc acetate (Zn(CH3COO)2) can be calculated using the formula for Ksp which is equal to the product of the concentrations of the ions in a saturated solution. Given the solubility of zinc acetate as 43.0, the equilibrium concentration of Zn2+ and Acetate ions in solution can be calculated and used to find the Ksp value.


Why is kc2h3o2 an acid?

Kc2h3o2 is an acid because it contains the acetate ion, which can donate a proton (H+) in a solution, forming acetic acid. In water, the acetate ion can react with water molecules to produce hydronium ions (H3O+) and acetic acid, which makes it an acid.


Solutions of aluminum acetate and lithium hydroxide are mixed?

When an aluminum acetate solution reacts with lithium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide and lithium acetate are formed. Aluminum hydroxide is a white solid that precipitates out of solution, while lithium acetate remains in solution. This reaction is a double displacement reaction that forms a precipitate.
