Answer:

Conjugate base: Propionate

Explanation:

Conjugate base contains one less proton as compared to it's parent acid. Deprotonation occurs from most acidic region.

Propionic acid deprotonates to produce it's strong conjugate base propionate.

In propionic acid, -OH group in -COOH functional moiety dissociates to produce $H^{+}$ . Because the O-H bond electrons remains highly polarized towards oxygen atom due to electron withdrawing inductive effect as well as resonating effect of -COOH moiety.

Structure of conjugate base has been shown below.

A barium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 1.90 g of Ba ( OH ) 2 in water to make 71.1 mL of solution. What is the co

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The molarity of this solution is 0.156 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of Ba(OH)2 = 1.90 grams

Molar mass Ba(OH)2 = 171.34 g/mol

Volume of the solution = 71.1 mL = 0.0711 L

Step 2: Calculate moles Ba(OH)2

Moles Ba(OH)2 = mass Ba(OH)2 / molar mass Ba(OH)2

Moles Ba(OH)2 = 1.90 grams / 171.34 g/mol

Moles Ba(OH)2 = 0.0111 moles

Step 3: Calculate molarity

Molarity solutin = moles Ba(OH)2 / volume solution

Molarity solution = 0.0111 moles / 0.0711 L

Molarity solution = 0.156 M

The molarity of this solution is 0.156 M
