Answer is: pKb for codeine is 5,8.
Chemical reaction:  C₁₈H₂₁NO₃ + H₂O ⇄ C₁₈H₂₁NO₃H⁺ + OH⁻.
c(C₁₈H₂₁NO₃) = 5·10⁻³ M = 0,005 mol/L.
pH = 9,95.
pOH = 14 - 9,95 = 4,05.
[OH⁻] = 10∧(-4,05) = 0,000089 mol/L.
[OH⁻] = [C₁₈H₂₁NO₃H⁺] = 8,9·10⁻⁵ mol/L.
[C₁₈H₂₁NO₃] = 0,005 mol/L - 0,000089 mol/L = 0,004911 mol/L.
Kb = [OH⁻] · [C₁₈H₂₁NO₃H⁺] / [C₁₈H₂₁NO₃].
Kb = (0,000089 mol/L)² / 0,004911 mol/L = 1,613·10⁻⁶.
pKb = -log(1,613·10⁻⁶) = 5,8.

Refraction occurs when the speed of light changes as it travels between mediums.<br><br><br> T<br> F
Mariana [72]

The answer is true

Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light.The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.

when performing solubility studies, why you should use deionized or distilled water rather than tap water?
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The science project or the proposed test using the water as a control element in the experiment determines whether you choose to use deionized water or distilled water. Of the two, distilled water is the purest because the water undergoes boiling that kills off most organic contaminants.
