Well, a molecule of this carbohydrate would essentially have no electronegativity difference as it is a Nonpolar compound, and not that of a polar one. All electrons between the atoms would ultimately have a net dipole value of 0, indicating that the molecule is Nonpolar. Thus does not have a partial positive and or a partial negative charge.

Consider an exceptionally weak acid, HA, with a Ka = 1x10 -20 . You make a 0.1M solution of the salt Na

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

$pH=13$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the acid, we can suppose a simple dissociation as:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^+ + A^-$

Which occurs in aqueous phase, therefore, the law of mass action is written by:

$Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}$

That in terms of the change $x$ due to the reaction's extent we can write:

$1x10^{-20}=\frac{x*x}{0.1M-x}$

But we prefer to compute the Kb due to its exceptional weakness:

$Kb=\frac{Kw}{Ka}=\frac{1x10^{-14}}{1x10^{-20}} =1x10^{-6}$

Next, the acid dissociation in the presence of the base we have:

$Kb=\frac{[OH^-][HA]}{[A^-]}=1x10^{6}=\frac{x*x}{0.1-x}$

Whose solution is $x=0.0999M$ which equals the concentration of hydroxyl in the solution, thus we compute the pOH:

$pOH=-log([OH^-])=-log(0.0999)=1$

Finally, since the maximum scale is 14, we can compute the pH by knowing the pOH:

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH=14-1\\\\pH=13$

Regards.

Which of the following would be expected to have the highest viscosity? CH3CH2OH, HOCH2OH, CH3CH2CH3

zaharov [31]

Answer: Out of the given options $HOCH_{2}OH$ is expected to have the highest viscosity.

Explanation:

The resistance occurred in the flow of a liquid substance is called viscosity.

More stronger is the intermolecular forces present in a substance more will be its resistance in its flow. Hence, more will be its viscosity.

For example, $HOCH_{2}OH$ has strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding than the one's present in $CH_{3}CH_{2}OH$ and $CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{3}$ . This is because two-OH groups are present over here.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options $HOCH_{2}OH$ is expected to have the highest viscosity.
