Answer:

3.4 mg of methylamine

Explanation:

To do this, we need to write the overall reaction of the methylamine in solution. This is because all aqueous solution has a pH, and this means that the solutions can be dissociated into it's respective ions. For the case of the methylamine:

CH₃NH₂ + H₂O <-------> CH₃NH₃⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 3.7x10⁻⁴

Now, we want to know how many grams of methylamine we have in 100 mL of this solution. This is actually pretty easy to solve, we just need to write an ICE chart, and from there, calculate the initial concentration of the methylamine. Then, we can calculate the moles and finally the mass.

First, let's write the ICE chart.

       CH₃NH₂ + H₂O <-------> CH₃NH₃⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 3.7x10⁻⁴

i)            x                                      0            0

e)          x - y                                  y            y

Now, let's write the expression for the Kb:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

We can get the concentrations of the products, because we already know the value of the pH. from there, we calculate the value of pOH and then, the OH⁻:

The pOH:

pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = 14 - 10.68 =  3.32

The [OH⁻]:

[OH⁻] = 10^(-pOH)

[OH⁻] = 10^(-3.32) = 4.79x10⁻⁴ M

With this concentration, we replace it in the expression of Kb, and then, solve for the concentration of methylamine:

3.7*10⁻⁴ = (4.79*10⁻⁴)² / x - 4.79*10⁻⁴

3.7*10⁻⁴(x - 4.79*10⁻⁴) = 2.29*10⁻⁷

3.7*10⁻⁴x - 1.77*10⁻⁷ = 2.29*10⁻⁷

x = 2.29*10⁻⁷ + 1.77*10⁻⁷ / 3.7*10⁻⁴

x = [CH₃NH₂] = 1.097*10⁻³ M

With this concentration, we calculate the moles in 100 mL:

n = 1.097x10⁻³ * 0.100 = 1.097x10⁻⁴ moles

Finally to get the mass, we need to molar mass of methylamine which is 31.05 g/mol so the mass:

m = 1.097x10⁻⁴ * 31.05

<h2>m = 0.0034 g or 3.4 mg of Methylamine</h2>

Ammonia, nh3, for fertilizer is made by causing hydrogen and nitrogen to react at high temperature and pressure. How many moles
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

0.30molNH_3

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

3H_2+N_2\rightarrow 2NH_3

We can evidence the 1:2 mole ratio of nitrogen gas to ammonia; therefore, the appropriate stoichiometric setup for the calculation of the moles of the latter turns out to be:

0.15molN_2*\frac{2molNH_3}{1molN_2}

And the result is:

0.30molNH_3

Best regards!

How many grams of CuF2 are needed to make a 2.8 M solution
11111nata11111 [884]
Molarity is given as,

                              Molarity  =  Moles / Volume of Solution  ----- (1)

Also, Moles is given as,

                              Moles  =  Mass / M.mass

Substituting value of moles in eq. 1,

                              Molarity  =  Mass / M.mass × Volume

Solving for Mass,

                              Mass  =  Molarity × M.mass × Volume  ---- (2)

Data Given;

                  Molarity  =  2.8 mol.L⁻¹

                  M.mass  =  101.5 g.mol⁻¹

                  Volume  =  1 L (I have assumed it because it is not given)

Putting values in eq. 2,

                              Mass  =  2.8 mol.L⁻¹ × 101.5 g.mol⁻¹ × 1 L

                              Mass  =  284.2 g of CuF₂
