D.
im not completely sure but i did the process of elimination. it’s not B because an element is one type of atom. it’s not A because both elements and compounds are pure substances. and it’s not C because it’s not in mixed composition

) Do you think the pH of 1,0 M tri-methyl ammonium (CH3)3NH+, pKa = 9.80, will be higher or lower than that of 1.0 M phenol, C6H

Elanso [62]

Answer:

1. The pH of 1.0 M trimethyl ammonium (pH = 1.01) is lower than the pH of 0.1 M phenol (5.00).

2. The difference in pH values is 4.95.

Explanation:

1. The pH of a compound can be found using the following equation:

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}])$

First, we need to find [H₃O⁺] for trimethyl ammonium and for phenol.

<u>Trimethyl ammonium</u>:

We can calculate [H₃O⁺] using the Ka as follows:

(CH₃)₃NH⁺ + H₂O → (CH₃)₃N + H₃O⁺

1.0 - x x x

$Ka = \frac{[(CH_{3})_{3}N][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[(CH_{3})_{3}NH^{+}]}$

$10^{-pKa} = \frac{x*x}{1.0 - x}$

$10^{-9.80}(1.0 - x) - x^{2} = 0$

By solving the above equation for x we have:

x = 0.097 = [H₃O⁺]

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}]) = -log(0.097) = 1.01$

<u>Phenol</u>:

C₆H₅OH + H₂O → C₆H₅O⁻ + H₃O⁺

1.0 - x x x

$Ka = \frac{[C_{6}H_{5}O^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[C_{6}H_{5}OH]}$

$10^{-10} = \frac{x^{2}}{1.0 - x}$

$1.0 \cdot 10^{-10}(1.0 - x) - x^{2} = 0$

Solving the above equation for x we have:

x = 9.96x10⁻⁶ = [H₃O⁺]

$pH = -log([H_{3}O^{+}]) = -log(9.99 \cdot 10^{-6}) = 5.00$

Hence, the pH of 1.0 M trimethyl ammonium is lower than the pH of 0.1 M phenol.

2. The difference in pH values for the two acids is:

$\Delta pH = pH_{C_{6}H_{5}OH} - pH_{(CH_{3})_{3}NH^{+}} = 5.00 - 1.01 = 4.95$

Therefore, the difference in pH values is 4.95.

I hope it helps you!

How can equilibrium of a closed system chemical reaction be disturbed? Select all that apply.

charle [14.2K]

The correct answers are :

Changing the volume of the system.

Changing the temperature of the system.

Equilibrium will remain unaffected if the concentration of products and reactants are kept the same, and the temperature of the system is kept constant.

As the system is closed, we cannot add or remove products or reactants.

Change in temperature will shift the chemical equilibrium towards the reactant or product depending on whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

Also change in volume will shift the chemical equilibrium of a chemical reaction if the reactants or products or both are gases.

A sulfuric acid solution containing 571.3 g of h2so4 per liter of aqueous solution has a density of 1.329 g/cm3. Part a calculat

loris [4]

Mass percentage of a solution is the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of solute H2SO4 = 571.3 g

Volume of the solution = 1 lit = 1000 ml

Density of solution = 1.329 g/cm3 = 1.329 g/ml

Calculations:

Mass of the given volume of solution = 1.329 g * 1000 ml/1 ml = 1329 g

Therefore we have:

571.3 g of H2SO4 in 1329 g of the solution

Hence, the amount of H2SO4 in 100 g of solution= 571.3 *100/1329 = 42.987

Mass percentage of H2SO4 (%w/w) is 42.99 %
