Answer: The base dissociation constant for a conjugate base is $3.5\times 10^{-6}$

Explanation:

To calculate the base dissociation constant for the given acid dissociation constant, we use the equation:

$K_w=K_b\times K_a$

where,

$K_w$ = Ionic product of water = $10^{-14}$

$K_a$ = Acid dissociation constant = $2.8\times 10^{-9}$

$K_b$ Base dissociation constant = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$10^{-14}=2.8\times 10^{-9}\times K_b\\\\K_b=0.35\times 10^{-5}=3.5\times 10^{-6}$

Hence, the base dissociation constant for a conjugate base is $3.5\times 10^{-6}$

A 64.4-g sample of potassium chloride was added to 200.0 g of water at 20 degrees C. Is the solution saturated, unsaturated, or

Tomtit [17]

Hey there!:

is the solution saturated , ie :

They are the ones that have reached the exact solubility coefficient.If we mix 64.4 g of KCl at 200.0 g of water at 20 º C, we'll see that the 32.2 g will dissolve and the remainder (32.2 g) will precipitate, forming the bottom body. In this case we will then have a solution saturated with background. However, if we want only the saturated solution, simply perform a simple filtration to separate the precipitate from the saturated solution.

hope this helps!

The metal content of iron in ores can be determined by a redox procedure in which the sample is first oxidized with Br2 to conve

Answer:

80.27%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 Fe³⁺(aq) + Sn²⁺(aq) ⇒ 2Fe²⁺(aq) + Sn⁴⁺(aq)

First, we have to calculate the moles of Sn²⁺ that react.

$\frac{0.1015molSn^{2+} }{1L} .13.28 \times 10^{-3} L=1.348\times 10^{-3}molSn^{2+}$

We also know the following relations:

According to the balanced equation, 1 mole of Sn²⁺ reacts with 2 moles of Fe³⁺.
1 mole of Fe³⁺ is oxidized from 1 mole of Fe.
The molar mass of Fe is 55.84 g/mol.

Then, for 1.348 × 10⁻3 moles of Sn²⁺:

$1.348\times 10^{-3}molSn^{2+}.\frac{2molFe^{3+} }{1molSn^{2+} } .\frac{1molFe}{1molFe^{3+} } .\frac{55.84gFe}{1molFe} =0.1505gFe$

If there are 0.1505 g of Fe in a 0.1875 g sample, the mass percentage of Fe is:

$\frac{0.1505g}{0.1875g} \times 100 \% = 80.27\%$
