Answer:

a, and f.

Explanation:

To be deprotonated, the conjugate acid of the base must be weaker than the acid that will react, because the reactions favor the formation of the weakest acid. The pKa value measures the strength of the acid. As higher is the pKa value, as weak is the acid. So, let's identify the conjugate acid and their pKas:

a. NaNH2 will dissociate, and NH2 will gain the proton and forms NH3 as conjugate acid. pKa = 38.0, so it happens.

b. NaOH will dissociate, and OH will gain the proton and forms H2O as conjugate acid. pKa = 14.0, so it doesn't happen.

c. NaC≡N will dissociate, and CN will gain a proton and forms HCN as conjugate acid. pKa = 9.40, so it doesn't happen.

d. NaCH2(CO)N(CH3)2 will dissociate and forms CH3(CO)N(CH3)2 as conjugate acid. pKa = -0.19, so it doesn't happen.

e. H2O must gain one proton and forms H3O+. pKa = -1.7, so it doesn't happen.

f. CH3CH2Li will dissociate, and the acid will be CH3CH3. pKa = 50, so it happens.

How many grams of Kr are in a 9.59 L cylinder at 46.0 'C and 4.62 atm?<br> mass:
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Mass = 141.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Kr in gram =  ?

Volume in L = 9.59 L

Temperature = 46.0°C

Pressure = 4.62 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

46.0+273 = 319 K

4.62 atm × 9.59 L = n× 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  ×319 K

44.3 atm.L = n×26.19 atm.L/ mol

n = 44.3 atm.L / 26.19 atm.L/ mol

n = 1.69 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.69 mol × 83.79 g/mol

Mass = 141.6 g

The volume of 0.05 M H2SO4 is needed to completely neutralise 15ml of 0.1 M NaOH solution is
Feliz [49]
V(NaOH)=15 mL =0.015 L
C(NaOH)=0.1 mol/L
C(H₂SO₄)=0.05 mol/L

2NaOH + H₂SO₄ = Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

n(NaOH)=V(NaOH)C(NaOH)=2n(H₂SO₄)
n(H₂SO₄)=V(H₂SO₄)C(H₂SO₄)

V(NaOH)C(NaOH)=2V(H₂SO₄)C(H₂SO₄)

V(H₂SO₄)=V(NaOH)C(NaOH)/{2C(H₂SO₄)}

V(H₂SO₄)=0.015*0.1/{2*0.05}=0.015 L = 15 mL

Iron is found in Earth's crust as several iron compounds. Calculate the mass in kilograms of the amount of each of the following
myrzilka [38]

2074.74 kg is the mass of siderite in which 1x10^3 kg of iron is present.

Explanation:

Mass of iron is given as 1x10^3 Kg

mass of iron in siderite FeCO3 can be known

number of moles in 1x10^3 Kg  iron is calculated by the formula.

number of moles = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of one mole}

atomic weight of iron is 55.84

number of moles = \frac{1000.1000}{55.84}

 n= 17908.309 moles of iron in 1000 kg

1 mole of FeCO3 has 1 mole of Fe

x moles of FeCO3 will have \frac{x}{17908.309} moles

\frac{1}{1} = \frac{x}{17908.309}

x = 17908.309 moles of FeCO3 is there.

so mass can be calculated as number of moles x molar mass of one mole of the substance.    (molar mass of siderite is 115.854 grams/mole)

17908.309 x 115.854

= 2074749.230 grams of siderite

(the molar mass is converted to kg/mole as the mass of iron is given by kg.

0.1158 kg is the molar mass of siderite)

2074749.230 grams of siderite is converted to kilogram

2074.74 kg is the mass of siderite in which 1x10^3 kg of iron is present.
