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

How many moles of NO2 form when<br> 63.25 g N2O5 decompose?<br> 2N2O5→ 4NO2 + 0₂
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

1.1713 moles

Explanation:

RFM of N2O5= (14*2)+(16*4)=108

Moles of N2O5= Mass/RFM= 63.25/108= 0.5856 moles

Mole ratio of N2O5:NO2 = 2:4

Therefore moles of NO2= 4/2*0.5856= 1.1713 moles

The formula for calcium oxide is CaO. What are the formulas for magnesium oxide and strontium oxide?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Formula of magnesium oxide is MgO and formula of strontium oxide is SrO

Explanation:

Ca, Mg and Sr are same group bivalent metals.

Oxygen is a bivalent element

In general, formula of a compound made of a cation M^{x+} and an anion A^{y-} is M_{y}A_{x} for x\neq y

When x = y, formula of the compound becomes MA

As both these metals and oxygen are bivalent therefore formula of magnesium oxide is MgO and formula of strontium oxide is SrO.
