Answer:
pH = 12.33
Explanation:
Lets call HA = butanoic acid and A⁻ butanoic acid and its conjugate base butanoate respectively.
The titration reaction is
HA + KOH ---------------------------- A⁻ + H₂O + K⁺
number of moles of HA : 118.3 ml/1000ml/L x 0.3500 mol/L = 0.041 mol HA
number of moles of OH : 115.4 mL/1000ml/L x 0.400 mol/L = 0.046 mol A⁻
therefore the weak acid will be completely consumed and what we have is the unreacted strong base KOH which will drive the pH of the solution since the contribution of the conjugate base is negligible.
n unreacted KOH = 0.046 - 0.041 = 0.005 mol KOH
pOH = - log (KOH)
M KOH = 0.005 mol / (0.118.3 +0.1154)L = 0.0021 M
pOH = - log (0.0021) = 1.66
pH = 14 - 1.96 = 12.33
Note: It is a mistake to ask for the pH of the <u>acid solutio</u>n since as the above calculation shows we have a basic solution the moment all the acid has been consumed.
Answer:
They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.
Explanation:
The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.
The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.
Density/Earth’s gravitational pull.
Answer:
148 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the decomposition of sodium azide
2 NaN₃ ⇒ 2 Na + 3 N₂
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 95.8 g of N₂
The molar mass of N₂ is 28.01 g/mol.
95.8 g × 1 mol/28.01 g = 3.42 mol
Step 3: Calculate the moles of NaN₃ needed to form 3.42 moles of N₂
The molar ratio of NaN₃ to N₂ is 2:3. The moles of NaN₃ needed are 2/3 × 3.42 mol = 2.28 mol.
Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2.28 moles of NaN₃
The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol.
2.28 mol × 65.01 g/mol = 148 g
<u>Carbon is an essential element for all life forms on Earth. Whether these life forms take in carbon to help manufacture food or release carbon as part of respiration, the intake and output of carbon is a component of all plant and animal life. Carbon is in a constant state of movement from place to place.</u>
