What mass of benzoic acid would you dissolve in 350.0 ml of water to produce a solution with a ph = 2.85?

14.1391 g

Explanation:

The pH of a solution is defined as the negative of the hydrogen ion's concentration.

Thus,

pH = - log [H⁺]

Given that:

pH = 2.85

2.85 = - log [H⁺]

So,

[H⁺] = 0.0014125 M

Also, benzoic acid exists in equilibrium in water as:

C₆H₅COOH ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻ + H⁺   Ka = 6.3×10⁻⁵

The ICE table is:

                 C₆H₅COOH ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻ + H⁺

At t = 0             a                        0             0

At t = teq         a-x                        x            x

The expression for Ka is:

Ka = 6.3×10⁻⁵ = [C₆H₅COO⁻][H⁺] / [C₆H₅COOH]

Also,

6.3×10⁻⁵ = x.x / (a-x)

x = [H⁺] = 0.0014125 M

6.3×10⁻⁵ = (0.0014125)² / (a-0.0014125)

Solving, a = 0.3308 M

Given volume = 350.0 mL = 350.0×10⁻³ L

So, Moles of benzoic acid = Concentration×Volume

Moles = 0.3308×350.0×10⁻³ = 0.11578 moles

Mass = Molar mass × moles

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

So,

Mass = 122.12 g/mol × 0.11578 moles = 14.1391 g

answer: the figure is attached herewith.

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to sketch a unit circle and label the terminal points corresponding to

in the attached figure, we have drawn a unit circle, with centre at o(0,0) and radius 1 unit. we have labelled the points a, b, c, d and e corresponding to the angles below

∠aox = 60°,

∠box = 120°,

∠cox = 180°,

∠dox = 240°,

∠eox = 300°.

and the coordinates are a(0.5,1), b(-0.5,1), c(-1,0), d(-0.5,-1) and e(0.5,-1).

thus, the answer is complete.

pre-sliced bread is a relatively recent development in baking technology. previous to that, it was always sold in a bakery in daily-made contiguous loaves with no wrapping, and was moderately perishable, usually being used with a day or two (which is why every bakery had a discounted “day-old” bread table.) therefore, pre-sliced bread would grow stale quickly. the hard crust provided a protective layer, and once the exposed dry slice left from the previous cut was removed, the interior was still soft.

what keeps bread soft is the moisture retained in the crumb (the light spongy part that’s not crust). the reason the crust develops is the surface of the dough gets exposed to hot dry air during baking which browns the outer layer and seals it, preventing all the moisture from escaping the dough. longer exposure to air will also eventually cause your bread to lose flavor and become stale.

people were used to cutting slices as they needed them and storing bread in a specially-made wooden or metal breadbox or pail with a lid to preserve it longer, but the first automatically sliced commercial loaves were produced on july 6, 1928, in chillicothe, missouri, using a machine invented by otto rohwedder, an iowa-born, missouri-based jeweler.[1] pre-sliced bread would indeed dry out, were it not for another 20th century technology: the plastic bag. bread could now be pre-sliced, and if the enclosing bag remains sealed as much as possible, the bread will remain soft and fresh for longer than if sitting unwrapped on a shelf or enclosed in a bread box that is not air-tight. sealed packaging meant bread could also be sold on store shelves and eliminate frequent trips to a bakery.

sealing bread in a plastic bag had another effect: the moisture in the loaf will re-distribute into the crust and soften it, which is sometimes more pleasing in a sandwich - especially for children whose teeth might not yet be strong enough to tear through a hard crust. a homemade loaf of bread can be sealed in a bag overnight and the crust will become soft like store-bought sandwich bread.

these were novel changes in how bread was produced and sold, which led to the coining of the phrase “the greatest thing since sliced bread.”
