1 answer:
qaws [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Fundamentally, chemistry is the study of matter and change. The way that chemists study matter and change and the types of systems that are studied varies dramatically. Traditionally, chemistry has been broken into five main subdisciplines: Organic, Analytical, Physical, Inorganic, and Biochemistry.

hope this helps :)

When the following oxidation–reduction reaction in acidic solution is balanced, what is the lowest whole-number coefficient for
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

c. 8, product side

Explanation:

In order to balance a redox reaction we use the ion-electron method, which has the following steps:

Step 1: identify oxidation and reduction half-reaction.

Oxidation: MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq)

Reduction: Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l)

Step 2: perform the mass balance adding H⁺ and H₂O where necessary

8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l)

Step 3: perform the electrical balance adding electrons where necessary.

8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l) + 2 e⁻

Step 4: multiply both half-reactions by numbers that secure that the number of electrons gained and lost are the same.

2 × (8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l))

5 × (2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l) + 2 e⁻)

Step 5: add both half-reactions side to side.

16 H⁺(aq) + 2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 10 e⁻ + 10 Br⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 Br₂(l) + 10 e⁻

16 H⁺(aq) + 2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 10 Br⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 Br₂(l)

The base-dissociation constant, kb, for pyridine, c5h5n, is 1.4x10-9 the acid-dissociation constant, ka, for the pyridinium ion,
sp2606 [1]
We are given the base dissociation constant, Kb, for Pyridine (C5H5N) which is 1.4x10^-9. The acid dissociation constant, Ka for the Pyridium ion or the conjugate acid of Pyridine is to be determined. We know from our chemistry classes that:

Kw = Kb * Ka

where Kw is always equal to 1x10^-14

so, to solve for Ka of Pyridium ion, substitute Kb to the equation together with Kw and solve for Ka:

1x10^-14 = 1.4x10^-9 * Ka
solve for Ka

Ka = 7.14x10^-6 

Therefore, the acid dissociation constant of Pyridinium ion is 7.14x10^-6.

Describe what happens in a condensation reactions
dlinn [17]
A condensation reaction is described to be a reaction wherein two molecules form an even larger product and consequently produces a smaller molecule as a by-product. For example, when two amino acids are combined, a dipeptide bond is formed. As a result, 1 molecule of water is produced as a by-product.
