Answer:

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction of trimethylamine when it is dissolved in water is:

C₃H₉N  +  H₂O ⇄ C₃H₉NH⁺ + OH⁻   Kb

1 mol of trimethylamine catches a proton from the water in order to produce trimethylamonium.

It is a base, because it give OH⁻ to the medium

Expression for Kb (Molar concentration)

Kb = [OH⁻] . [C₃H₉NH⁺] / [ C₃H₉N ]

A hot lump of 30.5 g of iron at an initial temperature of 52.7 °C is placed in 50.0 mL H2O initially at 25.0 °C and allowed to r
slava [35]

Answer:

26.7°C

Explanation:

Using the formula; Q = m × c × ΔT

Where; Q = amount of heat

m = mass

c = specific heat

ΔT = change in temperature

In this question involving iron placed into water, the Qwater = Qiron

For water; m= 50g, c = 4.18 J/g°C, Initial temp= 25°C, final temp=?

For iron; m = 30.5g, c = 0.449J/g°C, Initial temp= 52.7°C, final temp=?

Qwater = -(Qiron)

m × c × ΔT (water) =- {m × c × ΔT (iron)}

50 × 4.18 × (T - 25) = - {30.5 × 0.449 × (T - 52.7)}

209 (T - 25) = - {13.6945 (T - 52.7)}

209T - 5225 = -13.6945T + 721.7

209T + 13.6945T = 5225 + 721.7

222.6945T = 5946.7

T = 5946.7/222.6945

T = 26.7

Hence, the final temperature of water and iron is 26.7°C

What is the definition of Solvent
Helen [10]
A solvent (from the Latin solvō, "I loosen, untie, I solve") is a substance that dissolves a solute (a chemically distinct liquid, solid or gas), resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid or a gas. The quantity of solute that can dissolve in a specific volume of solvent varies with temperature. Common uses for organic solvents are in dry cleaning (e.g., tetrachloroethylene), as paint thinners (e.g., toluene, turpentine), as nail polish removers and glue solvents (acetone, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate), in spot removers (e.g., hexane, petrol ether), in detergents (citrus terpenes) and in perfumes (ethanol). Water is a solvent for polar molecules and the most common solvent used by living things; all the ions and proteins in a cell are dissolved in water within a cell. Solvents find various applications in chemical, pharmaceutical, oil, and gas industries, including in chemical syntheses and purification processes.
