There are 24 valance electrons in the compound.

<h3>What are valence electrons?</h3>

We know that the valence electrons are those that are found on the valence shell of an atom. There are four atoms that can be seen in the compound that is under consideration. The atoms are selenium, bromine (2 atoms) and oxygen.

Given that there are seven valence electrons in bromine and six valence electrons in oxygen and selenium. We have;

2(7 electrons of bromine) + 6 electrons of oxygen + 4 electrons of Se

= 24 electrons

Calculate the ph of a dilute solution that contains a molar ratio of potassium acetate to acetic acid (pka ???? 4.76) of (a) 2:1

givi [52]

According to Hasselbach-Henderson equation:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}$

Here, $[A^{-}]$ is concentration of conjugate base and [HA] is concentration of acid.

In the given problem, conjugate base is $CH_{3}COOK$ and acid is $CH_{3}COOH$ thus, Hasselbach-Henderson equation will be as follows:

$pH=pK_{a}+log\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}$ ...... (1)

(a) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 2:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=2$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{2}{1}=5.06$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.06.

(b) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:3 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{3}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{3}=4.28$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.28.

(c)Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 5:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{5}{1}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{5}{1}=5.45$

Therefore, pH of solution is 5.45.

(d) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:1 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=1$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{1}=4.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 4.76.

(e) Ratio of concentration of potassium acetate and acetic acid is 1:10 thus,

$\frac{[CH_{3}COOK]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}=\frac{1}{10}$

Also, $pK_{a}=4.76$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$pH=4.76+log\frac{1}{10}=3.76$

Therefore, pH of solution is 3.76.

The lone pair of electrons on the oxygen atom in an ester can form hydrogen bonds in some situations, but esters cannot form hyd

mixer [17]

Answer:

Esters have lower boiling point than alcohols.

Explanation:

Esters are the fruity smelling compounds which are formed from carboxylic acid and alcohol with the removal of water.

The general formula for the ester is RCOOR' which is prepared from RCOOH acid and R'OH alcohol.

Ester can not form strong hydrogen bond as there is no hydrogen attached to the electronegative atom in the ester and thus cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other.<u> Due to this factor, the interactions within the molecules of the ester is lower than that of alcohols which exist in strong hydrogen bonding. As a result, ester can be easily boiled when compared to the alcohols and thus they have lower value of boiling points.</u>

How many milliliters of 0.0510 m edta are required to react with 50.0 ml of 0.0200 m cu2 ?

krok68 [10]

Cu ions plus EDTA2- ->cu(EDTA)2- plus 2H-
number of moles of CU ions used which is equal to molarity multiplied by volume in litres
that is 50xo.o2 divided by 1000 that is 0.001moles
Since ratio is 1:1 the moles of EDTA is also0.001moles
volume of EDTA is 0.001 divided by 0.0510m which is 0.0196 litres in ml is 0.0196x1000 which is 19.61ml
