Which statement best describes what makes a base weak

Chemistry

PtichkaEL [24]2 years ago
5 0

The statement that describes what makes a base weak is that the base will be unable to dissociate completely in water.

<h3>What is a base?</h3>

A base is any of a class of generally water-soluble compounds, having bitter taste, that turn red litmus blue, and react with acids to form salts.

Bases usually dissociate into hydroxide ions (OH-) when in an aqueous solution.

However, a base is termed weak or strong depending on it's ability to dissociate completely. A weak base does not dissociate completely into hydroxide ions when in an aqueous solution.

The fertilizer ammonium sulfate, (nh4)2so4, is prepared by the reaction between ammonia (nh3) and sulfuric acid: 2nh3(g) + h2so4
iren2701 [21]
The chemical reaction would be:

<span>2nh3(g) + h2so4(aq) = (nh4)2so4(aq)
</span>
To determine the ammonia needed, we use the given amount of the product to be produced and use the chemical equation to relate the substances. We do as follows:

3.60 × 105 kg (nh4)2so4 ( 1 kmol / 132.14 kg ) ( 2 kmol NH3 / 1 kmol (nh4)2so4 ) (17.04 kg / 1 kmol ) = 92846.98 kg NH3 needed

Consider two acids: (ch3)3cco2h (pivalic acid, pka = 5.0) and hco2h (formic acid, pka = 3.8). Which acid forms the stronger conj
gulaghasi [49]

<em>Answer:</em>

  • Pivalic acid forms a strong conjugate base.

<em>Explanation:</em>

  • Strong acid has weak conjugate base
  • Weak acid has strong conjugate base

As in this case, pivalic acid is weak acid (Due to electron donating effect of <em>tert.</em> butyl group) having pka value of 5.0 , so its conjugate base will be strong as compare to formic acid which is stronger acid.

<em>Summary: </em>

  • As pivalic acid is weak acid as compare to formic acid, so its conjugate base will be strong and vice versa.

What is the definition of a solution
allsm [11]
A solution means that you're trying to solve (or deal) with a situation.

For example, if you're having trouble trying to solve a math problem, that means that you're trying to figure out that problem.
