A liter of pH 7.20 phosphate buffer is needed for a certain experiment. The Henderson-Hasselbach equation will be sufficiently accurate for your determination of pH. The pK’s for possibly relevant phosphate species are:

H3PO4 ↔ H2PO4- + H+ pK = 2.15

H2PO4- ↔ HPO4-2 + H+ pK = 7.20

HPO4-2 ↔ PO4-3 + H+ pK = 12.4

0.100 Moles of H3PO4 were dissolved in about 800 mL of water, and the pH was adjusted to 7.20 using a standardized pH meter and a 1 M solution of KOH followed by addition of water to a volume of 1.00 L.

a. (10 pts) Write the equation for the charge balance to show how [K+], [H2PO4-], and [HPO4-2] are related. ([H+] and [OH-], although they are charged species, can be neglected for charge balance when compared to [K+], [H2PO4-], and [HPO4-2])

b. (10 pts) At pH 7.20 what is the ratio of [H2PO4-] to [HPO4-2]?

c. (20 pts) Combine your findings from parts a and b to determine how many mL of 1 M KOH must be added. {An important hint: By mass balance, the total molar concentration of phosphate species at pH 7.2 must equal the total molar concentration of phosphate species that was added from H3PO4.}

The reaction of nitric oxide (NO(g)) with molecular hydrogen (H2(g)) results in the formation of nitrogen and water as follows: 2NO (g) + 2H2(g)...> N2(g) + 2H2O(g) The experimentally determined rate-law expression for this reaction is first order in H2(g) and second order with NO(g).

a) Is the reaction above, as written an elementary reaction?

b) One potential mechanism for this reaction is as follows: H2(g) + 2NO(g)...> N2O (g) + H2O (g) k1 H2(g) + N2O (g)...> N2(g) + H2O(g) k2 Is this mechanism consistent with the experimental rate law? If not, why?

c) An alternative mechanism for the reaction is:

2NO(g) <...> N2O2(g) (fast) k1(fwd) k-1(rev) H2(g) + N2O2 (g)...> N2O(g) + H2O(g) k2 H2(g) + N2O (g)...> N2(g) + H2O(g) k3

Show that this mechanism is consistent with the experimental law.

I need a good explanation for just part b please
