Which of the following mixtures, with each component present at a concentration of 0.1 M, has a pH closest to 7? O A. HCIO(aq) and NaCIO(aq) O B. HNO2(aq) and NaNO2(aq) O C. CH3COOH(aq) and NaCH3COO (aq) O D. HNO3(aq) and NaNO3(aq)

Respuesta :

for HClO, pKa = 7.54

for HNO_2, pKa = 3.15                                    

for CH3 COOH, pKa = 4.74    

Explanation:

The concentration of the solution given is 0.1 M has a pH closest to 7

The mixtures are weak acids and their salts except

HNO_3 and NaNO_3                                         pH = pH is near to '1'

for buffers( acidic)                                               pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]

therefore [salt] = [acid] = 0.1                               pH = pKa + log 0.1 / 0.1 = pKa

                                                     pH = pKa

for HClO, pKa = 7.54

for HNO_2, pKa = 3.15                                     therefore HClO and NaclO

                                                                         mixture hs a pH closest to '7'

for CH3 COOH, pKa = 4.74                

Answer:

The answer is: A. HCIO(aq) and NaCIO(aq

Explanation:

From buffers, the pH is equal:

pH = pKa + log([salt]/[acid])

[sal] = [acid] = 0.1 M

Replacing:

pH = pKa + log(0.1/0.1)

pH = pKa + 0

pH = pKa

According to this:

pKa of HClO ≅ 7.54

pKa of HNO₂ ≅ 3.15

pKa of CH₃COOH ≅ 4.74

Then, the mix that present a pH closest to 7 is HClO and NaClO
