- Consider the blood buffer system discussed in the Exercise 96. Patients with severe diarrhea can have an excessive loss of sodium bicarbonate (sodium hydrogen carbonate). How would this affect the pH of blood? Explain. What would be the treatment of such a condition?arrow_forwardEach of the following statements concerns a 0.010 M solution of a weak acid, HA. Briefly describe why each statement is either true or false. a [HA] is approximately equal to 0.010 M. b [HA] is much greater than [A]. c [OH] is approximately equal to [H3O+]. d The pH is 2. e The H3O concentration is 0.010 M. f [H3O+] is approximately equal to [A].arrow_forwardBarbituric acid. HC4H3N2O3, is used to prepare various barbiturate drugs (used as sedatives). Calculate the concentrations of hydronium ion and barbiturate ion in a 0.10 M solution of the acid. The value of Ka is 9.8 105.arrow_forward
- Compare the percent ionization of the base in Exercise 22a with the percent ionization of the base in Exercise 22d. Explain any differences.arrow_forwardEach box represents an acid solution at equilibrium. Squares represent H+ ions. Circles represent anions. (Although the anions have different identities in each figure, they are all represented as circles.) Water molecules are not shown. Assume that all solutions have the same volume. (a) Which figure represents the strongest acid? (b) Which figure represents the acid with the smallest Ka? (c) Which figure represents the acid with the lowest pH?arrow_forwardWrite chemical equations for the acid ionizations of each of the following weak acids (express these in terms of H3O+). a HBrO (hypobromous acid) b HClO2? (chlorous acid) c HNO2 (nitrous acid) d HCN (hydrocyanic acid)arrow_forward
- Note whether hydrolysis occurs for each of the following ions. If hydrolysis doe occur, write the chemical equation for it. Then write the equilibrium expression for the acid or base ionization (whichever occurs). a CH3NH3+ b Cl c ClO2 d CO32+arrow_forwardCoal and other fossil fuels usually contain sulfur compounds that produce sulfur dioxide, SO2, when burned. One possible way to remove the sulfur dioxide is to pass the combustion gases into a tower packed with calcium oxide, CaO. Write the equation for the reaction. Identify each reactant as either a Lewis acid or a Lewis base. Explain how you arrived at your answer.arrow_forwardWhich of the following will increase the percent of NH3 that is converted to the ammonium ion in water (Hint: Use LeChatelier’s principle.)? (a) addition of NaOH. (b) addition of HCl. (c) addition of NH4Clarrow_forward
- A solution is prepared from 0.150 mol of formic acid and enough water to make 0.425 L of solution. a Determine the concentrations of H3O+ and HCOO in this solution. b Determine the H3O+ concentration that would be necessary to decrease the HCOO concentration above by a factor of 10. How many milliliters of 2.00 M HCl would be required to produce this solution? Consider that the solution was made by combining the HCl, the HCOOH, and enough water to make 0.425 L of solution. c Qualitatively, how can you account for the differences in the percentage dissociation of formic acid in parts a and b of this problem?arrow_forward. For each pair of concentrations, tell which represents the more basic solution. a. [H+]=2.02107Mor[OH-]=5.05105M b. [H+]=1.79105Mor[OH-]=4.21106M c. [H+]=1.251012Mor[OH-]=6.51103Marrow_forwardNote whether hydrolysis occurs for each of the following ions. If hydrolysis docs occur, write the chemical equation for it. Then write the equilibrium expression for the acid or base ionization (whichever occurs). a NO3 b OCl c NH2NH3+ d Brarrow_forward
