Which of the following would have the largest pKa?

Chemistry
1 answer:
garri49 [273]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

Explanation:

To answer this question we must know Kb of CH3CH2NH2 is 5.6x10⁻⁴, and for C6H5NH2 is 4.0x10⁻¹⁰. And the CH3CH2NH3+ and C6H5NH3+ are related with these substances because are their conjugate base. That means:

pKa of  CH3CH2NH3+ =  CH3CH2NH2;  C6H5NH3+ =  C6H5NH2

Also, Kw / Kb = Ka

Thus:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 1.79x10⁻¹¹

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 10.75

pKa of C6H5NH3+/ C6H5NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 2.5x10⁻⁵

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 4.6

That means CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

what is molarity of a sodium hydroxide solution made by combining 2.0 L of 0.60 M NaOH with 495 mL of 3.0 M NaOH? Assume the vol
hammer [34]

Answer:

Molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 1.443 M/L

Explanation:

Given;

0.60 M concentration of NaOH contains 2.0 L

3.0 M concentration of NaOH contains 495 mL

Molarity is given as concentration of the solute per liters of the solvent.

If the volumes of the two solutions are additive, then;

the total volume of NaOH = 2 L + 0.495 L = 2.495 L

the total concentration of NaOH = 0.6 M + 3.0 M = 3.6 M

Molarity of NaOH solution = 3.6 / 2.495

Molarity of NaOH solution = 1.443 M/L

Therefore, molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 1.443 M/L
