Answer:
The correct appropriate will be Option 1 (Acid anhydrides are less stable than esters so the equilibrium favors the ester product.)
Explanation:
- Acid anhydride, instead of just a carboxyl group, is typically favored for esterification. The predominant theory would be that Anhydride acid is somewhat more volatile than acid. This is favored equilibrium changes more toward the right of the whole ester structure.
- Extremely responsive than carboxylic acid become acid anhydride as well as acyl chloride. Thus, for esterification, individuals were most favored.
The other options offered are not relevant to something like the scenario presented. So, the solution here is just the right one.
The vapors of some chemicals used in the chemistry laboratory, especially isocyanates, can react and bond the contact lens to the eye.
(FYI - the family of isocyanates include Superglue..I wouldn't want to have been the person who discovered this unfortunate reaction!)
Answer is: Kb for methylamine is 4.37·10⁻⁴.<span>
Chemical reaction: CH</span>₃NH₂ + H₂O → CH₃NH₃⁺ + OH⁻.
c(CH₃NH₂) = 0.253 M.
α = 4.07% ÷ 100% = 0.0407.
[CH₃NH₃⁺] = [OH⁻] = c(CH₃NH₂) · α.
[CH₃NH₃⁺] = [OH⁻] = 0.253 M · 0.0407.
[CH₃NH₃⁺] = [OH⁻] = 0.0103 M.
[CH₃NH₂] = 0.253 M - 0.0103 M.
[CH₃NH₂] = 0.2427 M.
Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] · [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂].
Kb = (0.0103 M)² / 0.2427 M.
Kb = 4.37·10⁻⁴.
