Two commonly used sulfonic acids are methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H) and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (CF3SO3H). Which acid's co

Answer:trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (CF3SO3H).

Explanation:

The trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (CF3SO3H) has a halogen atom which stabilizes the leaving group by withdrawal of charge from the SO3- moiety. The methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H) contains an electron pushing group which tends to destabilize the charge centre. The better leaving group will be the stabilized anion which in this case is trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (CF3SO3H). This typifies the role of stabilizing factors in formation of chemical species.

What are desirable characteristics of a barium suspension? 1. Rapid flow 2. Thick layering 3. Good mucosal adhesion
choli [55]

Answer:

The desirable characteristic of Barium suspension are:

<u>Thick layering</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

First know the meaning of  the terms :

1. Rapid flow

2. Thick layering

3. Good mucosal adhesion\

1. Rapid flow : The lower the viscosity of the solution , more is its flow in the solution. For example : Honey has more viscosity so it flows slowly . On the other hand water flow faster.

2. Thick layering : layering is the deposition of one layer of the liquid over other. The deposited layer can be of different substance.

3. Mucosal Adhesion : It is the adhesion(attraction) between two materials ,one of which is mucous.It is attractive force between the drug and the mucus inside the body.

Barium suspension:

<em>It is not a Good mucosal adhesion material because of low solubility in water and lipid .</em>

<em>Only those solution are good in adhesion which have higher solubility in water.</em>

It is widely used as the contrast media for the examination of gastrointestinal because of its <u>Thick Layering Property. It has the consistency of thick glass . At room temperature it is called "warm thick milk"</u>

Identify the property of the matter described below.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: C.

Explanation: Alcohol floats on oil and water sinks in oil. Water, alcohol, and oil layer well because of their densities, but also because the oil layer does not dissolve in either liquid. The oil keeps the water and alcohol separated so that they do not dissolve in one another. ... Water sinks because it is more dense than oil.

A 60.0 mL solution of 0.112 M sulfurous acid (H2SO3) is titrated with 0.112 M NaOH. The pKa values of sulfurous acid are 1.857 (
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a)4.51

b) 9.96

Explanation:

Given:

NaOH = 0.112M

H2S03 = 0.112 M

V = 60 ml

H2S03 pKa1= 1.857

pKa2 = 7.172

a) to calculate pH at first equivalence point, we calculate the pH between pKa1 and pKa2 as it is in between.

Therefore, the half points will also be the middle point.

Solving, we have:

pH = (½)* pKa1 + pKa2

pH = (½) * (1.857 + 7.172)

= 4.51

Thus, pH at first equivalence point is 4.51

b) pH at second equivalence point:

We already know there is a presence of SO3-2, and it ionizes to form

SO3-2 + H2O <>HSO3- + OH-

Kb = \frac{[ HSO3-][0H-]}{SO3-2}

Kb = \frac{10^-^1^4}{10^-^7^.^1^7^2} = 1.49*10^-^7

[HSO3-] = x = [OH-]

mmol of SO3-2 = MV

= 0.112 * 60 = 6.72

We need to find the V of NaOh,

V of NaOh = (2 * mmol)/M

= (2 * 6.72)/0.122

= 120ml

For total V in equivalence point, we have:

60ml + 120ml = 180ml

[S03-2] = 6.72/120

= 0.056 M

Substituting for values gotten in the equation Kb=\frac{[HSO3-][OH-]}{[SO3-2]}

We noe have:

1.485*10^-^7=\frac{x*x}{(0.056-x)}

x = [OH-] = 9.11*10^-^5

pOH = -log(OH) = -log(9.11*10^-^5)

=4.04

pH = 14- pOH

= 14 - 4.04

= 9.96

The pH at second equivalence point is 9.96
