Why is Co2 a compound but H2 is not a compound

1 answer:

6 0

CO2, or Carbon Dioxide, is considered a compound because it is made up of more than one type of atom. H2 only contains one type of atom.

) Do you think the pH of 1,0 M tri-methyl ammonium (CH3)3NH+, pKa = 9.80, will be higher or lower than that of 1.0 M phenol, C6H

Elanso [62]

Answer:

1. The pH of 1.0 M trimethyl ammonium (pH = 1.01) is lower than the pH of 0.1 M phenol (5.00).

2. The difference in pH values is 4.95.

Explanation:

1. The pH of a compound can be found using the following equation:

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}])$

First, we need to find [H₃O⁺] for trimethyl ammonium and for phenol.

<u>Trimethyl ammonium</u>:

We can calculate [H₃O⁺] using the Ka as follows:

(CH₃)₃NH⁺ + H₂O → (CH₃)₃N + H₃O⁺

1.0 - x x x

$Ka = \frac{[(CH_{3})_{3}N][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[(CH_{3})_{3}NH^{+}]}$

$10^{-pKa} = \frac{x*x}{1.0 - x}$

$10^{-9.80}(1.0 - x) - x^{2} = 0$

By solving the above equation for x we have:

x = 0.097 = [H₃O⁺]

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}]) = -log(0.097) = 1.01$

<u>Phenol</u>:

C₆H₅OH + H₂O → C₆H₅O⁻ + H₃O⁺

1.0 - x x x

$Ka = \frac{[C_{6}H_{5}O^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[C_{6}H_{5}OH]}$

$10^{-10} = \frac{x^{2}}{1.0 - x}$

$1.0 \cdot 10^{-10}(1.0 - x) - x^{2} = 0$

Solving the above equation for x we have:

x = 9.96x10⁻⁶ = [H₃O⁺]

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}]) = -log(9.99 \cdot 10^{-6}) = 5.00$

Hence, the pH of 1.0 M trimethyl ammonium is lower than the pH of 0.1 M phenol.

2. The difference in pH values for the two acids is:

$\Delta pH = pH_{C_{6}H_{5}OH} - pH_{(CH_{3})_{3}NH^{+}} = 5.00 - 1.01 = 4.95$

Therefore, the difference in pH values is 4.95.

I hope it helps you!

Identify each type of bond:

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The type of bond between the Oxygen atom and the hydrogen is Covalent

this is because the 2 electrons are being shared by both hydrogen and oxygen

The type of bond this molecule makes as a whole is called a Hydrogen Bond

A hydrogen bond is formed because of the partial +ve and -ve charge in a molecule

The cause of the partial +ve and -ve charge is the comparatively high electronegativity of oxygen which makes the electron get attracted towards the oxygen atom while the hydrogens try to maintain the maximum distance from the lone pairs due to repulsion

Hope it helped
