Which of the following pairs contains a conjugate acid-base pair?

1 answer:

5 0

Remember that a conjugate acid-base pair will differ only by one proton.
None of the options you listed are conjugate acid-base pairs as none of them differ only by one proton (or H⁺)
An example of a conjugate acid-base pair would be NH₃ and NH₄⁺NH₃ + H₂O --> NH₄⁺ + OH⁻NH3 is the base, and NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid

Briefly explain why there is a constant temperature plateau in the cooling curve

iVinArrow [24]

This plateau is where a phase change occurs. Likely, this cooling curve observes the changing of a liquid into a solid (so that the temperature is quantifiable). As something cools, it’s losing energy to the surroundings; when a phase change occurs, like liquid to solid, energy isn’t lost directly from the atom, but instead the energy maintained by free motion of the atom is used. This lack of motion reduces it into a lattice (all while maintaining a constant internal energy), finalizing the phase change, after which energy is lost directly from the atom again.

A 5.325g sample of methyl benzoate, a compound in perfumes , was found to contain 3.758 g of carbon, 0.316 g of hydrogen, and 1.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer: The empirical and molecular formula of the compound is $C_4H_4O$ and $C_8H_8O_2$ respectively

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of C = 3.758 g

Mass of H = 0.316 g

Mass of O = 1.251 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{3.758g}{12g/mole}=0.313moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.316g}{1g/mole}=0.316moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{1.251g}{16g/mole}=0.078moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.078 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.313}{0.078}=4.01\approx 4$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.316}{0.078}=4.05\approx 4$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.078}{0.078}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 4 : 4 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_4H_4O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is:

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 130 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 68 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{130g/mol}{68g/mol}=1.9\approx 2$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(2\times 4)}H_{(2\times 4)}O_{(2\times 2)}=C_8H_8O_2$

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula of the compound is $C_4H_4O$ and $C_8H_8O_2$ respectively

How many moles of HCl would react with 37.1 mL of 0.138 M Sr(OH)2

Lena [83]

Answer is: 0.102 moles of HCl would react.

Balanced chemical reaction:

2HCl(aq) + Sr(OH)₂ → SrCl₂(aq) + 2H₂O(l).

V(Sr(OH)₂) = 37.1 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L.

V(Sr(OH)₂) = 0.0371 L; volume of the strontium hydroxide solution.

c(Sr(OH)₂) = 0.138 M; molarity of the strontium hydroxide solution.

n(Sr(OH)₂) = c(Sr(OH)₂) · V(Sr(OH)₂).

n(Sr(OH)₂) = 0.0371 L · 0.138 mol/L.

n(Sr(OH)₂) = 0.0051 mol; amount of the strontium hydroxide.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(Sr(OH)₂) : n(HCl) = 1 : 2.

n(HCl) = 2 · n(Sr(OH)₂).

n(HCl) = 2 · 0.0051 mol.

n(HCl) = 0.0102 mol; amount of the hydrochloric acid.
