Answer:

a) pH = 3.54

b) pH =  3.27

c) pH = 2.71

d) pH = 2.25

e) pH = 2.04

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of a 0.100 M pyridine solution = 25.0 mL = 0.025 L

Kb for pyridine is 1.7 * 10^-9

Molarity of HCl = 0.100 M

Step 2: The balanced equation

C5H5N(aq) + HCl (aq) → C5H5NH+ +Cl-(aq)

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles pyridine = Molarity pyridine * volume

Moles pyridine = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles pyridine = 0.0025 moles

Moles HCl = 0.100 M * 0.0245 L

Moles HCl = 0.00245 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol pyridine we need 1 mol HCl to produce 1 mol C5H5NH+

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.00245 moles). Pyridine is in excess. There will react 0.00245 moles. There will remain 0.0025 - 0.00245 = 0.00005 moles

There will be produce 0.00245 moles C5H5NH+

Step 5: Calculate the molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

Molarity C5H5N = 0.00005 moles / 0.0495 L

Molarity C5H5N = 0.00101 M

Molarity C5H5NH+ = 0.00245 moles / 0.0495 L

Molarity C5H5NH+ = 0.0495 M

Step 6: Calculate pOH

pOH = pKb + log ([B+]/[BOH])

pOH = 8.77 + log (0.0495 / 0.00101)

pOH = 10.46

Step 7: Calculate pH

pH = 14 - 10.46 = 3.54

When adding 25.0 mL HCl

Moles pyridine = Molarity pyridine * volume

Moles pyridine = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles pyridine = 0.0025 moles

Moles HCl = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles HCl = 0.0025 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol pyridine we need 1 mol HCl to produce 1 mol C5H5NH+

Both HCl and pyridine will completely be consumed.  

The total volume now is 25.0 mL + 25.0 mL = 50.0 so the concentration of the C5H5NH+ to start is 0.0025 moles / 0.05 L = 0.05 M

C5H5NH+ + H2O ==> C5H5N + H3O^+

The concentration of C5H5NH+ will be 0.05 - X M

The concentration of C5H5N and H2O will be X

Ka = K/ Kb

Ka = X²/ (0.05 -X)

X = [H3O+] = 0.000542

pH = -log (0.000542)

pH = 3.27

When adding 26.0 mL HCl

Moles pyridine = Molarity pyridine * volume

Moles pyridine = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles pyridine = 0.0025 moles

Moles HCl = 0.100 M * 0.026 L

Moles HCl = 0.0026 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol pyridine we need 1 mol HCl to produce 1 mol C5H5NH+

Pyridine is the limiting reactant. All of it will be consumed.

There will remain 0.0001 mol HCl

Step 5: Calculate pH of HCl

pH = -log [H+]

pH = -log (0.0001 / 0.051 L)

pH = -log ( 0.00196)

pH = 2.71

When adding 28.0 mL HCl

Moles pyridine = Molarity pyridine * volume

Moles pyridine = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles pyridine = 0.0025 moles

Moles HCl = 0.100 M * 0.028 L

Moles HCl = 0.0028 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol pyridine we need 1 mol HCl to produce 1 mol C5H5NH+

Pyridine is the limiting reactant. All of it will be consumed.

There will remain 0.0003 mol HCl

Step 5: Calculate pH of HCl

pH = -log [H+]

pH = -log (0.0003 / 0.053 L)

pH = -log ( 0.00566)

pH = 2.25

When adding 30.0 mL HCl

Moles pyridine = Molarity pyridine * volume

Moles pyridine = 0.100 M * 0.025 L

Moles pyridine = 0.0025 moles

Moles HCl = 0.100 M * 0.030 L

Moles HCl = 0.0030 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol pyridine we need 1 mol HCl to produce 1 mol C5H5NH+

Pyridine is the limiting reactant. All of it will be consumed.

There will remain 0.0005 mol HCl

Step 5: Calculate pH of HCl

pH = -log [H+]

pH = -log (0.0005 / 0.055 L)

pH = -log ( 0.00909)

pH = 2.04

Ierofanga [76]

Answer: Water inside the seed coat creating a pushing force, breaking the seed coat.

Explanation:

Seed germination can be defined as the process by which a new plant emerge out from a seed. The radicle is the first emerging part from a seed and it develops into a root and the plumule is the second emerging part and it develops into a shoot. The light, water, adequate temperature, and soil are the factors that are necessary for seed germination.

According to a given situation, the popcorn kernel will receive the moisture necessary for the germination process, the water will imbibe into the seed coat creating pressure inside the seed and which will cause the seed coat to break and the new plant parts or seedling will emerge out of the seed coat.

Draw the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed reaction of acetic acid (ethanoic acid) with the methanol to yield methyl acetate (met
timama [110]

When ethanoic acid react with methanol in the presence of H⁺ or heat it gives methyl ethanoate and water.

<h3>What is Balanced Chemical Equation ?</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.

Now write the chemical equation

CH₃COOH + CH₃OH ⇄ CH₃COOCH₃ + H₂O

Here

CH₃COOH is Ethanoic acid (Acetic acid)

CH₃OH is Methanol (Methyl Alcohol)

CH₃COOCH₃ is Methyl ethanoate (Methyl Acetate)

H₂O is water

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that When ethanoic acid react with methanol in the presence of H⁺ or heat it gives methyl ethanoate and water.

Science help this is my last question
astraxan [27]

Answer:

P waves travel faster than other waves

Explanation:

P waves travel fastest and are the first to arrive from the earthquake. In S or shear waves, rock oscillates perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.

Which of the following statements best explains why the atomic radius increases from top to bottom of the periodic table? A. The
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

D. For the atoms lower in the periodic table, the valence electrons are in higher energy levels and farther from the nucleus.

Explanation:

Atomic radius increases down the group because down the group, there an increase in the number of principle energy levels occupied. Now, these higher principal energy levels are made up of orbitals that are larger than the orbitals from the lower energy levels in size.

Therefore, the effect of this is that the greater number of principal energy levels will outweigh the increase in nuclear charge since nuclear charge also increases down the group and this in turn makes the atomic radius to increase as we go down the group.
