Answer:

The K_b expression for the weak base equilibrium is:

K_b=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N]}

Explanation:

(CH_3)_3N(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightlefharpoons (CH_3)_3NH^++OH^-(aq)

The expression of the equilibrium constant of base K_c can be given as:

K_c=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N][H_2O]}

]K_b=K_c\times [H_2O]=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N]}

As we know, water is pure solvent, we can put [H_2O]=1

K_b=K_c\times 1=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N]}

So, the the K_b expression for the weak base equilibrium  is:

K_b=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N]}

In the naturally occurring D series of ketoses, the carbonyl group is found on carbon number ___________, whereas in aldoses, th
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

second carbon atom from the  end

end carbon atom

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are naturally occurring organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The general molecular formula of Carbohydrates is C_x(H_2O)_y.

Carbohydrates can be classified based on structures,

Carbohydrates with the structure of alkanals (-CHO) are known as aldose while those of the structure of alkanones (C=O) are known as ketose.

In stereochemistry , D series is a kind of configurational arrangement where the hydroxyl group attaches itself to the right hand side.

Thus; in naturally occurring D series of ketoses, the carbonyl group is found on carbon number <u>second carbon atom from the  end </u>whereas in aldoses, the carbonyl group is found on carbon number <u> end carbon atom.</u>

The. bond dissociation enthalpies of the H-H bond and the H-Cl bond are 435 kJ mol^-1 and 431 kJ mol^-1, respectively. The ΔHfO
Novay_Z [31]

The bond dissociation energy of the Cl - Cl bond is -958 kJ mol^-1.

<h3>What is the dissociation enthalpy?</h3>

Given that;

H-H bond energy =  435 kJ mol^-1

H-Cl bond energy = 431 kJ mol^-1

ΔHfO of HCL(g) = -92kJ mol^-1

Bond dissociation enthalpy of the Cl-Cl bond = x

-92 = 435  +  431 + x

x = -92 - (435  +  431)

x = -958 kJ mol^-1
