Answer:

10.64

Explanation:

Let's consider the basic reaction of cyclohexamine, C₆H₁₁NH₂.

C₆H₁₁NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻     pKb = 3.36

C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ is its conjugate acid, since it donates H⁺ to form C₆H₁₁NH₂. C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ acid reaction is as follows:

C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₁₁NH₂(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)   pKa

We can find the pKa of C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ using the following expression.

pKa + pKb = 14.00

pKa = 14.00 - pKb = 14.00 - 3.36 = 10.64

How is ammonia used or found in nature?
gogolik [260]
Ammonia is a fish matter transformation collateral product. They simply pee with ammonia because it is not toxic for them since ammonia will quickly dissolve in water.

Margaret [11]
The answer is C due to the rain making contact with the iron it creates moisture which cause the iron to begin oxidizing which causes the iron to rust which is a chemical reaction then the blade which was once malleable because it was heat becomes harden and rust is created as I said before the physical aspect of the iron chances due to rust developing on it it's no longer has the luster it once had
