% protonated
Is the equation for the %protonated in a chemical reaction that involves making a buffer: final conc/initial conc * 100%, or is it different?

Re: % protonated
I'm not sure but I thought it might also be the equation we used for Q5 in acheive week 2? Where we had to divide it by the total [BH+] + [B]. This could totally be wrong but on this website that's what it looked like?

Re: % protonated
Hi! Yes, Dr. Lavelle used the example of CH3NH2(aq)+H20(l)->CH3NH3+(aq)+OH-(aq)
The percent protonated equation would look like [CH3NH3+]/[CH3NH2]initial x 100%.
Hope this helps!

Re: % protonated
Yup! You wrote it correctly. The percent protonated is the final concentration/initial concentration * 100%.

Re: % protonated
Hi! Here is the equation for % pronated:
(final concentration/initial concentration) * 100
Hope this helps!
(final concentration/initial concentration) * 100
Hope this helps!

Re: % protonated
Yes, that is the correct equation. Something slightly off topic but still related is that when percent protonated is greater than 5 percent, you cannot assume x is negligible.

Re: % protonated
Yes, that is the correct equation for it. You would take the final concentration of the conjugate acid or base and divide that by the initial concentration of the base or acid initially put into the solution. To then get the percentage, you would take the answer from the previous division and multiply it by 100%.

Re: % protonated
Yup, you got it correct. The formula to calculate the % protonation would be as you mentioned:
[(final concentration) / (initial concentration)] * 100%
[(final concentration) / (initial concentration)] * 100%

Re: % protonated
Yes that's the correct equation. Just take the final concentration of conjugate acid/base and divide that by an initial conc. of the base/acid in the solution.

Re: % protonated
Yes, the equation to find the percent protonated would be [final]/[initial] * 100%.

Re: % protonated
Yes, if you're trying to find the percent protonated, you need to do final concentration (since you're calculating the concentration of hydrogen) over initial and multiply by 100.

Re: % protonated
Yes! That is correct. The % protonated would be the final concentration/initial concentration x 100.

Re: % protonated
% protonated in a solution is (concentration of ions, aka BH+, at equilibrium)/(concentration of base, aka B+, initially) * 100%. Hope this helps!

Re: % protonated
This is correct. It is the final concentration divided by the initial multiplied by 100% :)

Re: % protonated
Yes! What you wrote was in fact correct. % protonation = [BH+]/[B]initial x 100%
%ionization = [H3o+]/[HA]initial x 100%
%ionization = [H3o+]/[HA]initial x 100%

Re: % protonated
Yes! The percent protonated is calculated using the equation [final]/[initial] x 100%

Re: % protonated
Yeah exactly!
The percent protonated is the final concentration over the initial concentration x 100%.
Hope this helps!
