Phenol, pentane-2,4-dione and diethyl malonate are strong enough to react completely with a hydroxide ion. But none of these compounds can react with a bicarbonate ion.

Further Explanation:

The formula to calculate {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of acid is as follows:

{\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} =  - \log {{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}}       …… (1)

                                                       

Here,

{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} is the dissociation constant of acid.

Equation (1) implies more the value of {{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}}, smaller will be the {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of the acid and vice-versa. The higher value of {{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} means the acid is completely dissociated into its respective ions when dissolved in the solvent and vice-versa. The compounds that have {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} values less than that of the given solvent will dissociate in it and thereby reacting with it and vice-versa.

The value of {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of water is 15.74. The value of {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of phenol is 9.89. The value of {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of pentane-2,4-dione is 9. The value of {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of diethyl malonate is 13.

All these compounds have {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} values less than that of water so these can react with hydroxide ion completely. But the value of {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} of {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}} is 6.37. All the given compounds have {\text{p}}{{\text{K}}_{\text{a}}} values greater than that of {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}} so these cannot react with a bicarbonate ion.

The compounds can react with OH⁻ and HCO₃⁻ only C₅H₆N pyridinium

<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>

In an acid-base reaction, it can be determined whether or not a reaction occurs by knowing the value of pKa or Ka from acid and conjugate acid (acid from the reaction)

Acids and bases according to Bronsted-Lowry

Acid = donor (donor) proton (H + ion)

Base = proton (receiver) acceptor (H + ion)

If the acid gives (H +), then the remaining acid is a conjugate base because it accepts protons. Conversely, if a base receives (H +), then the base formed can release protons and is called the conjugate acid from the original base.

From this, it can be seen whether the acid in the product can give its proton to a base (or acid which has a lower Ka value) so that the reaction can go to the right to produce the product.

The step that needs to be done is to know the pKa value of the two acids (one on the left side and one on the right side of the arrow), then just determine the value of the equilibrium constant

Can be formulated:

K acid-base reaction = Ka acid on the left : K acid on the right.

or:

pK = acid pKa on the left - pKa acid on the right

K = equilibrium constant for acid-base reactions

pK = -log K;

K~=~10^{-pK}

K value> 1 indicates the reaction can take place, or the position of equilibrium to the right.

There is some data that we need to complete from the problem above, which is the pKa value of some compounds that will react, namely:

pyridinium pKa = 5.25

acetone pKa = 19.3

butan-2-one pKa = 19

Let's look at the K value of each possible reaction:

pka H₂O = 15.74, pka of H₂CO₃ = 6.37)

  • 1. C₅H₆N pyridinium

* with OH⁻

C₅H₆N + OH- ---> C₅H₅N- + H₂O

pK = pKa pyridinium - pKa H₂O

pK = 5.25 - 15.74

pK = -10.49

K~=~10^{4.9}

K values> 1 indicate the reaction can take place

* with HCO3⁻

C₅H₆N + HCO₃⁻-- ---> C₅H₅N⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 5.25 - 6.37

pK = -1.12

K`=~10^{1.12]

Reaction can take place

  • 2. Acetone C₃H₆O

* with OH-

C₃H₆O + OH⁻ ---> C₃H₅O- + H₂O

pK = 19.3 - 15.74

pK = 3.56

K~=~10^{ -3.56}

Reaction does not happen

* with HCO₃-

C₃H₆O + HCO₃⁻ ----> C₃H₅O⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 19.3 - 6.37

pK = 12.93

K`=~10 ^{-12.93}

Reaction does not happen

  • 3. butan-2-one C₄H₇O

* with OH-

C₄H₇O + OH- ---> C₄H₆O- + H₂O

pK = 19 - 15.74

pK = 3.26

K~=~10^{-3.26}

Reaction does not happen

* with HCO₃⁻

C₄H₇O + HCO₃⁻ ---> C₄H₆O⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 19 - 6.37

pK = 12.63

K~=~ 10^{-12.63}

Reaction does not happen

So that can react with OH⁻ and HCO₃⁻ only C₅H₆N pyridinium

Alex
Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.

Difference between---<br> soap and detergent
guapka [62]

Answer:

"Soaps are made from natural ingredients, such as plant oils (coconut, vegetable, palm, pine) or acids derived from animal fat. Detergents, on the other hand, are synthetic, man-made derivatives. While soap is limited in its applications, detergents can be formulated to include other ingredients for all sorts of cleaning purposes. Perhaps the most common and versatile of these ingredients are surfactants … surface active agents.

The main difference between soap and detergent is the ingredients. Soaps are made with biodegradable ingredients such as oils, lye and fats. ... Both clean clothes well, but detergents are more effective on stains and with brightening clothes. However, soap is kinder on the environment and skin. "

Hope this helps

If cells did not work together what would happen to the organisms
arlik [135]

Surely, If cells did not work together in an organism, there won't be formation of new cells and life process would stop

<h3>Living organisms </h3>

Living organisms; be it plants or animals are any organic or living system composed of cells and function as an individual entity.

  • All living organisms share a number of key characteristics or functions such as movement, respiration, homeostasis, reproduction, growth, evolution, competition and others.

  • Animals and plants also posess systems such as the digestive, skeletal, transport, nervous, excretory, respiratory and reproductive system.

  • Living organisms are also taxonomically classified as either unicellular microorganisms or multicellular plants and animals

So therefore, surely, If cells did not work together in an organism, there won't be formation of new cells and life process would stop

A chemist wants to extract copper metal from copper chloride solution. The chemist places 0.50 grams of aluminum foil in a solut
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometry problem.
  • We should write the balance equation of the mentioned chemical reaction:

<em>2Al + 3CuCl₂ → 3Cu + 2AlCl₃.</em>

  • It is clear that 2.0 moles of Al foil reacts with 3.0 moles of CuCl₂ to produce 3.0 moles of Cu metal and 2.0 moles of AlCl₃.
  • Also, we need to calculate the number of moles of the reported masses of Al foil (0.50 g) and CuCl₂ (0.75 g) using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass</em>

  • The no. of moles of Al foil = mass / atomic mass = (0.50 g) / (26.98 g/mol) = 0.0185 mol.
  • The no. of moles of CuCl₂ = mass / molar mass = (0.75 g) / (134.45 g/mol) = 5.578 x 10⁻³  mol.
  • <em>From the stichiometry Al foil reacts with CuCl₂ with a ratio of 2:3.</em>

∴ 3.85 x 10⁻³  mol of Al foil reacts completely with 5.578 x 10⁻³  mol of CuCl₂ with <em>(2:3)</em> ratio and CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant while Al foil is in excess.

  • From the stichiometry 3.0 moles of  CuCl₂ will produce the same no. of moles of copper metal (3.0 moles).
  • So, this reaction will produce 5.578 x 10⁻³ mol of copper metal.
  • Finally, we can calculate the mass of copper produced using:

mass of Cu = no. of moles x Atomic mass of Cu = (5.578 x 10⁻³  mol)(63.546 g/mol) = 0.354459 g ≅ 0.36 g.

  • <u><em>So, the answer is:</em></u>

<em>Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.</em>
