What is the pH of a 0.640 M solution of C₅H₅NHBr (Kb of C₅H₅N is 1.7 × 10⁻⁹)?
Elden [556K]

The pH of a 0.64 M solution of pyridine (C₅H₅N) is 9.52.  

<h3>What is pH ?</h3>

A figure expressing the acidity or alkalinity of a solution on a logarithmic scale on which 7 is neutral, lower values are more acid and higher values more alkaline.

The equation for the protonation of the base pyridine is the following:

C₅H₅N + H₂O ⇄ C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻   (1)

Kb = 1.7 × 10⁻⁹ (Given)

To calculate the pH of the solution we need to use the following equation:

pH + pOH = 14

<em>pH = 14 - pOH</em>

     =14 - [-log[OH⁻]]

    = 14 + log[OH⁻]

Now, we need to find the concentration of the OH⁻ ions. Since pyridine is a weak base, at the equilibrium we have (eq 1):

C₅H₅N  +  H₂O  ⇄  C₅H₅NH⁺  +  OH⁻

0.64 - x                          x              x

After entering the values of [C₅H₅N] = 0.64-x, [C₅H₅NH⁺] = x, and [OH⁻] = x, into equation (2) we can find the concentration of OH⁻:

1.7 × 10⁻⁹  =[C₅H₅NH⁺]  [OH⁻]  /  [C₅H₅N]

                = x . x / 0.64-x

1.7 × 10⁻⁹ (0.64-x) - x² = 0

Solving the above quadratic equation for x, we have :

  • x₁ = -3.32 x 10⁻⁵
  • x₂ = 3.32 x 10⁻⁵

Now, We can calculate the pH, after taking the positive value, x₂, (concentrations cannot be negative) and entering into above equation :

<em />

<em>pH = </em>14 + log[OH⁻]

     = 14 + log (3.32 x 10⁻⁵)

 

     = 9.52

Therefore, the pH of the solution of pyridine is 9.52.

Consider the chemical equations shown here.
vichka [17]

P₄0₆_{s} + 20₂_{g}   ⇒    P₄0₁₀_{s}

Explanation:

The overall equation for the reaction that produces  P₄0₁₀ is :

P₄0₆_{s} + 20₂_{g}   ⇒    P₄0₁₀_{s}

Now let us derive this equation:

Given equations:

   P₄_{s} + 30₂_{g}  ⇒ P₄0₆_{s}  equation 1;

   P₄_{s} + 50₂_{g} ⇒  P₄0₁₀_{s}  equation 2;

To get the overall combined equation, the equation 1 must be reversed and added to equation 2:

            P₄0₆_{s} ⇒ P₄_{s} + 30₂_{g}   equation 3

                      +

            equation 2:

 P₄_{s} + 50₂_{g}  +    P₄0₆_{s}  ⇒  P₄0₁₀_{s}  +  P₄_{s} + 30₂_{g}  

cancelling specie that appears on both sides and removing excess oxygen gas on the reactant side gives;

   

                  P₄0₆_{s} + 20₂_{g}   ⇒    P₄0₁₀_{s}

How many molecules are in 3.6 grams of NaCl?
raketka [301]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{None}}

Explanation:

There are no molecules in NaCl, because it consists only of ions.

However, we can calculate the number of formula units (FU) of NaCl.

Step 1. Calculate the moles of NaCl

\text{No. of moles}=\text{3.6 g NaCl}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NaCl}}{\text{63.54 g NaCl}} = \text{0.0567 mol NaCl}

Step 2. Convert moles to formula units

\text{FU} = \text{0.0567 mol NaCl} \times \dfrac{6.022 \times 10^{23}\text{ FU NaCl}}{\text{1 mol NaCl}}\\\\= 3.4 \times 10^{22} \text{ FU NaCl}

There are \boxed{3.4 \times 10^{22} \text{ FU NaCl}} in 3.6 g of NaCl.
