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

A bathtub is filled with 100 L of water. A cat jumps in and the volume rises to 125 L. If the cat has a mass of
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 3.2 g/L</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass of cat = 400 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 125 - 100 = 25 L

The density of the cat is

density =  \frac{400}{125}  =  \frac{16}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.2 g/L</h3>

Hope this helps you
