While camping up at Haloooo Mountain (5,500 feet above sea level), it generally takes Sandy about the same amount of time to boi

l water for her soup as it takes to make a sandwich. This week, Sandy is camping at a trail that is only about 200 feet above sea level. Sandy is very hungry and wants something to eat immediately. Should she make the soup or sandwich? Which would be ready more quickly and why?

She should make soup. When you are way above sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases. Boiling starts when the vapor pressure of the liquid is the same with the atmospheric pressure. This would mean that water boils at a much lower temperature than the usual 100deg C. So it would take longer for the components in the soup to cook compared to when it is cooked on the foot of the mountain.

How does skin protect the body from pathogens?
andreev551 [17]
Skin is a barrier that serves as one of the body's first lines of defense against harmful microbes. Specialized immune cells within skin tissue help to fight invading organisms. Yet the skin hosts diverse communities of beneficial bacteria, collectively known as the skin microbiota.

A 25.0 ml sample of a 0.2900 m solution of aqueous trimethylamine is titrated with a 0.3625 m solution of hcl. calculate the ph
Flauer [41]
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
