Answer:

8

Explanation:

Ammonium ion (NH_4)^+ is formed when ammonia (NH_3) reacts with hydrogen ion H^+

NH_3+H^+=NH_4^+

In NH_4^+ the nitrogen has 5 valence electron and there are 4 hydrogen each has 1 valence electron

So total number of valence electron =4+5=9

But NH_4^+ has 1 positive charge on it, it means it losses 1 electron

So total number of valence electron in poly atomic ion of  NH_4^+  is 9-1=8

Consider a 0.10 M aqueous benzoic acid, CeHeCOOH. The K benzoic acid. 6.5 x 10 for A) Write a balanced equation that shows the r
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

a) C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

b) [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = 2.599

Explanation:

a) balanced equation:

C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

⇒ Ka = ( [ H3O+ ] * [ C6H5COO- ] ) / [ C6H5COOH ] = 6.5 E-5

mass balance:

0.10 m = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ C6H5COOH ].....(1)

charge balance:

[ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ OH- ] .......[ OH- ] : comes from water, it's not significant

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] .........(2)

b) (2) in (1):

⇒ 0.10 M = [ H3O+ ] + [ C6H5COOH ]

⇒ [ C6H5COOH ] = 0.10 - [ H3O+ ]

⇒ Ka = [ H3O+ ]² / ( 0.1 - [ H3O+ ] ) = 6.5 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + 6.5 E-5 [ H3O+ ] - 6.5 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = - log [ H3O+ ]

⇒ pH = - Log ( 2.517 E-3 )

⇒ pH = 2.599

How do you convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius temperatures
balu736 [363]
Well, 1st, you need to take the Fahrenheit temperature and subtract it from 32, make sure you put it in parentheses. Then, 2nd, you multiply it by it by 5/9. Here's an example of my explanation didn't make since:
T(°C) = (68°F - 32) × 5/9 = 20 °C
And that's how you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius temperatures.

If the [H+] is 3.5x10-4, what is the [OH-]?
slava [35]

Answer:

2.90 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

[H⁺]  = 3.5 x 10⁻⁴mol/dm³

Unknown

[OH⁻]  = ?

Solution;

The ionic product of water can be used to solve this problem. It has been experimentally determined to be  1 x 10⁻¹⁴mol² dm⁻⁶

             [H⁺] [OH⁻]  = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

Therefore;

             [OH⁻]   = \frac{1  x 10^{-14} }{H}    = \frac{1  x  10^{-14} }{3.5 x 10^{-4} }   = 0.29 x 10⁻¹⁰moldm⁻³

                                                            = 2.90 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³
