Two plastics that are targeted for recycling from household waste are PETE (1) ( plastic soft drink bottles/ peanut butter and s

alad dressing containers) and HDPE (2) ( milk, water, juice containers/ plastic grocery bags). One of the problems of recycling such materials is separating them. Suppose you have been hired to set up a process for separating large quantities (many tons) of waste plastic that is a mixture of PETE and HDPE. Describe how you might perform this separation.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Which bases can deprotonate acetylene? the pka values of the conjugate acids are given in parentheses. select all that apply. ch
Usimov [2.4K]

pKa is a value which is related to the acid dissociation constant Ka

pKa = -log Ka

i.e. Ka = 10^-pKa

The deprotonation reaction of acetylene is:

HC≡CH ↔ HC≡C⁻ + H⁺

pKa (HC≡CH) = 25

Solvents with pKa greater than 25 will deprotonate acetylene.

Ans: CH2=CH⁻ pka = 44 and CH3NH⁻ pka = 40
