To determine the pH of a weak base, we use the equation:
pH = 14 + 0.5 log Kb
Therefore,
pH = 14 + 0.5 log 3.25
pH = 14.26
A weak base is a base which does not fully dissociates into ions when in solution. The solution would contain cations, anions and the compound itself. Hope this helps.
Protons goes in the blank. the word can be used for both.
Answer:
Nitrogen
Explanation:
The element nitrogen cannot be a product in the given reaction.
The reaction is;
HCl + CaCO₃
According to the law of conservation of matter, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".
The law suggests that, in a chemical reaction, we end up with the same species we started with. Although due to rearrangement of bonds, new compounds can form;
Starting atoms
H
Cl
Ca
O
These species will also be found in the product.
