Chapter 2.4, Problem 4PE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The symbol and name of the metalloid in group 15 closest in mass to the noble gas configuration.

Interpretation: The symbol and name of the metalloid in group 15 closest in mass to the noble gas configuration are to be stated.

Concept introduction: Metalloids or semiconductors are the elements which tend to have the physical properties of metals but the chemical properties of non-metals.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The symbol and name of the representative element in the fourth row that is an alkaline earth metal.

Interpretation: The symbol and name of the representative element in the fourth row that is an alkaline earth metal is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Alkaline earth metals belong to group 2 of the periodic table. Representative elements are the elements in group 1,2, and 13 through 18 of the periodic table.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: A transition metal in the sixth row with chemical properties similar to zinc.

Interpretation: A transition metal in the sixth row with chemical properties similar to zinc is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The transition metals are the elements in group 3 through 12 of the periodic table. They are nearly all classic metals: hard, shiny, ductile, malleable and excellent conductors of electricity.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: A nonmetal in the third row with chemical properties similar to oxygen.

Interpretation: A nonmetal in the third row with chemical properties similar to oxygen is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Non-metals are poor conductor of heat and electricity. Most of the non-metals are gases at room temperature.

A small artisanal cheesemaker is testing the acidity of their milk before it coagulates. During fermentation, bacteria produce lactic acid (K₁ = 1.4 x 104), a weak acid that helps to curdle the milk and develop flavor. The cheesemaker has measured that the developing mixture contains lactic acid at an initial concentration of 0.025 M. Your task is to calculate the pH of this mixture and determine whether it meets the required acidity for proper cheese development. To achieve the best flavor, texture and reduce/control microbial growth, the pH range needs to be between pH 4.6 and 5.0. Assumptions: Lactic acid is a monoprotic acid H H :0:0: H-C-C H :0: O-H Figure 1: Lewis Structure for Lactic Acid For simplicity, you can use the generic formula HA to represent the acid You can assume lactic acid dissociation is in water as milk is mostly water. Temperature is 25°C 1. Write the K, expression for the dissociation of lactic acid in the space provided. Do not forget to include state symbols.…
