Conjugate base pairs are acid and bases having common features. These features are the equal gain or loss of protons of the pairs. Conjugate pairs should always be one base and one acid. One would not exist without the other. Conjugate acids are the substances that gains protons while conjugates bases are those that loses protons. <span>The substances in the equilibrium reaction that is given is identified as follows:
HCO3^- + H2O <-----> CO3^2- + H3O^+
acid base conjugate base conjugate acid
HCO3^- ion is an intermediate molecule of CO2 and CO3^2-. When we add OH- to HCO3^-, we produce CO3^2-. And when we add H+ to HCO3, we produce CO2. </span>
I think the answer would be medium
Answer:
14.3mL you require to reach the half-equivalence point
Explanation:
A strong acid as HClO₄ reacts with a weak base as CH₃CH₂NH₂, thus:
CH₃CH₂NH₂ + HClO₄ → CH₃CH₂NH₃⁺ + ClO₄⁻
As the reaction is 1:1, to reach the equivalence point you require to add the moles of HClO₄ equal to moles CH₃CH₂NH₂ you add originally. Also, half-equivalence point requires to add half-moles of CH₃CH₂NH₂ you add originally.
Initial moles of CH₃CH₂NH₂ are:
20.8mL = 0.0208L × (0.51mol CH₃CH₂NH₂ / 1L) =
0.0106moles CH₃CH₂NH₂
To reach the half-equivalence point you require:
0.0106moles ÷ 2 = 0.005304 moles HClO₄
As concentration of HClO₄ is 0.37M, volume you require to add 0.005304moles is:
0.005304 moles HClO₄ ₓ (1L / 0.37mol) = 0.0143L =
<h3> 14.3mL you require to reach the half-equivalence point</h3>
I think it's the minimum required energy to the reaction to occur
