Why is butylamine stronger base than ammonia

this  is   due  to  the  difference  in  electron  density. Butylamine  has  more   electron  density  than  ammonia.  Due   to  this   reason is  a  Butylamine    stronger  base than ammonia. BUtylamine  has  positive  induction  effect  of  -CH3  group  electron  density  on  N  atom  which  increases

Answer:

Kb of butylamine is higher than the Kb of ammonia.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can cite the methylamine and ethylamine Kb values as 4.38e-4 and 5.6e-4 respectively. On the other hand, ammonia has a Kb of 1.8e-5. Kb is important because it is a measure of how dissociated a base is; now as it is seen, Kb of ammonia is smaller than Kb of both methylamine and ethylamine, it means that the amine are more likely to dissociate, so they are stronger. Nevertheless, since the Kb are given for the aforesaid amines, one expects  the Kb of butylamine to be higher than those. Thus, butylamine is stronger than ammonia in terms of dissociation.

Best regards.

For a certain chemical reaction, the bond energy of the reactants is 43 kJ, and 35 kJ of energy is released. For energy to be co
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

78kJ

Explanation:

Energy change = Energy in (reactants) - Energy out (products)

According to this question, energy is released, meaning that the reaction is EXOTHERMIC. Hence, the energy change will be negative (-) i.e bond energy of reactants is greater than bond energy of products.

Energy in = bond energy of reactants = 43kJ

Energy out = bond energy of products = ?

Energy change of exothermic reaction = -35kJ

Therefore;

-35kJ = 43kJ - x

x = 35kJ + 43kJ

x = 78kJ

The bond energy of the products is 78kJ.

To what family of the periodic table does this new element probably belong
julsineya [31]
<span>Ionization energy (IE) is the amount of energy required to remove an electron. If you observe the IEs sequentially, there is a large gap between the 2nd and 3rd. This suggests it is difficult to remove more than 2 two electrons. Elements that lose two electrons to become more stable are found in the Group 2A (2 representing the number of electrons in the outermost valence shell).</span>
