Answer:

RbOH

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember what is the definition of a base. A base is a compound that has the <u>ability to produce hydroxyl ions</u> OH^-, so:

AOH~->~A^+~+~OH^-

With this in mind we can write the <u>reaction for each substance:</u>

HCOOH~->~HCOO^-~+~H^+

RbOH~->~Rb^+~+~OH^-

H_2CO_3~->~CO_3^-^2~+~2H^+

NaNO_3~->~Na^+~+~NO_3^-

The only compound that fits with the definition is RbOH, so this is our <u>base</u>.

I hope it helps!

What challenges would you encounter with the titration if you had used apple cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar as the analyte in
Vika [28.1K]

Explanation:

Apple cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar might contain various synthetics which might  interact with or nullified the findings, whereas white vinegar comprises of acidic acid only. In fact, apple cider vinegar and balsamic vinegar are deep in appearance this would make it very difficult to determine the color. This is why it is preferable to use white vinegar in the Titration process.

How many coppers of each atom in the products
yarga [219]

Answer:

Explanation:

moler mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol. Since 63.546 g of copper has 6.022 x 10 power(23) atoms (Avogadro's number). = 9.5 x 10(power)21 atoms of copper.

Calculate the concentrations of all species present in a 0.26 M solution of ethylammonium chloride (C2H5NH3Cl).
Alina [70]

Answer:

0.00000223

Explanation:

pKa for C2H5NH3+ = 10.7

pKw = 14.0

pKa + pKb = pKw

10.7 + pKb = 14.0

pKb = 14.0 - 10.7

pKb = 3.30

C2H5NH3Cl is a salt of ethylamine and HCl so it will dissolve in water to produce  C2H5NH3^+ + Cl^-

The base hydrolysis reaction:  C2H5NH3^+(aq) + H2O(l) <=> C2H5NH2(aq) + H3O^+(aq)

This reaction is described by Kb.

Kb = [C2H5NH2][H3O^+]/[C2H5NH3^+]

Let [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+] = x,

so [C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 - x

Kb = x^2/(0.26 - x) = 2.00 x 10^-11  

Let's solve for x. In this equation,  It is possible to solve without the use quadratic equation. So we can assume that 0.26 - x  is approximately equal to 0.26.  We won't know until we do the calculation.

We get:  x^2 + 2.00 x 10^-11x - 4.99 x 10^-12 = 0

With the use of a quadratic calculator.

x = 2.23 x 10^-6 M = [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+]

0.26 - x  is just 0.26 M in this problem because 2.23 x 10^-6 M is insignificant.

[C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 M = [Cl^-]

NOTE:

pH = -log [H3O^+] = -log(2.23 x 10^-6) = 5.65

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Kb is the base dissociation constant
