Answer:
Energy is moved from areas of surplus to those of deficit, with warm currents transporting warm water polewards and cold currents taking colder water to lower latitudes. It holds onto this heat for longer than the land does and the ocean currents move this heat around, from the tropics to higher latitudes.
First I would have a pot of soil and a carrot (without fertilizer) then a pot of soli ,with fertilizer and a carrot. Then I would watch them for the same amount of time and identify weather the soil impacted the decomposition of the carrot and repeat this twice.
Same size pots
Same size carrots
Same soil
Same growth area
a) After adding 10 mL of HCl
first, we need to get moles of (CH3)3N = molarity * volume
= 0.29 m * 0.025 L
= 0.00725M moles
then, we need to get moles of HCl = molarity * volume
= 0.3625 m * 0.01L
= 0.003625 moles
so moles of (CH3)3N remaining = moles of (CH3)3N - moles of HCl
= 0.00725 - 0.003625
= 0.003625 moles
and when the total volume = 0.01 L + 0.025L = 0.035 L
∴ [(CH3)3N] = moles remaining / total volume
= 0.003625 moles / 0.035L
= 0.104 M
when we have Pkb so we can get Kb :
pKb = - ㏒Kb
4.19 = -㏒Kb
∴Kb = 6.5 x 10^-5
when Kb = [(CH3)3NH+] [OH-] / [(CH3)3N]
and by using ICE table we assume we have:
[(CH3)3NH+] = X & [OH] = X
and [(CH3)3N] = 0.104 -X
by substitution:
∴ 6.5 x 10^-5 = X^2 / (0.104-X) by solving for X
∴X = 0.00257 M
∴[OH-] = X = 0.00257 M
∴POH = -㏒[OH]
= -㏒0.00257
= 2.5
∴ PH = 14 - POH
= 14 - 2.5
= 11.5
b) after adding 20ML of HCL:
moles of HCl = molarity * volume
= 0.3625 m * 0.02 L
= 0.00725 moles
the complete neutralizes of (CH3)3N we make 0.003625 moles of (CH3)3NH+ So, now we need the Ka value of (CH3)3NH+:
and when the total volume = 0.02L + 0.025 = 0.045L
∴ [ (CH3)3NH+] = moles / total volume
= 0.003625 / 0.045L
= 0.08 M
when Ka = Kw / Kb
and we have Kb = 6.5 x 10^-5 & we know that Kw = 1 x 10^-14
so, by substitution:
Ka = (1 x 10^-14) / (6.5 x 10^-5)
= 1.5 x 10^-10
when Ka expression = [(CH3)3N][H+] / [(CH3)3NH+]
by substitution:
∴ 1.5 x 10^-10 = X^2 / (0.08 - X) by solving for X
∴X = 3.5 x 10^-6 M
∴ [H+]= X = 3.5 x 10^-6 M
∴PH = -㏒[H+]
= -㏒(3.5 x 10^-6)
= 5.5
C) after adding 30ML of HCl:
moles of HCl = molarity * volume
= 0.3625m * 0.03L
= 0.011 moles
and when moles of (CH3)3N neutralized = 0.003625 moles
∴ moles of HCl remaining = moles HCl - moles (CH3)3N neutralized
= 0.011moles - 0.003625moles
= 0.007375 moles
when total volume = 0.025L + 0.03L
= 0.055L
∴[H+] = moles / total volume
= 0.007375 mol / 0.055L
= 0.134 M
∴PH = -㏒[H+]
= -㏒ 0.134
= 0.87
I think the answer is C. C and D
