What is the pH of a 0.65 M solution of pyridine, C5H5N?

Chemistry

Arada [10]3 years ago

Hey there!

The pH of a weak base (in this case, pyridine is a weak base) is calculated by using the weak base equation, and then solving it.

C5H5N; Kb= 1.7 x 10⁻⁹

pH = -log [H⁺]

we can also say that pH = 14 + log [OH⁻]

Plugging into the weak base equation, we know that Kb = [OH⁻][BH⁺] / [B]

This can be solved using an ice chart, which will then simplify to :

Kb = [x][x] / [0.50-x]

We can assume that x is very small in comparison to the 0.5 , so we consider it zero.


Then plug in and solve for x.  1.79 *10-9 = x² / 0.5

x = 2.992 * 10⁻⁵

ince X is equal to the [OH⁻] concentration, we can plug it into the second pH equation, and get the pH!

pH = 14+ log 2.99 * 10⁻⁵

pH = 9.48

Hope that helps!

Will strontium bromide and potassium sulfate give a precipitate
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:- Yes, strontum bromide and potassium sulfate gives a precipitate of strontium sulfate.

Explanations:- As per the solubility rules, all compounds of alkali metals are soluble.

Sulfate of most of the alkaline earth metals like Ca, Ba and Sr are insoluble.

A double displacement reaction takes place when strontium bromide and potassium sulfate are mixed and a precipitate of strontium sulfate is formed:

Sr(Br)_2(aq)+K_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2KBr(aq)+SrSO_4(s)

Note: (aq) stands for aqueous and (s) stands for solid and here it's precipitate.

Calculate the number of moles 3.16 g of KMnO4 32.33 g of K2CrO4 100 g of KHCO3
kvasek [131]
The number of moles:
3.16g of KMnO_{4}
1 mole of KMnO_{4}- 158g.
x moles of KMnO_{4}- 3.16g.
x=\frac{1\ mole*3.16g}{158g}=\frac{3.16}{158}=0.02\ mole

The number of moles:
32.33g of K_{2}CrO_{4}
1 mole of K_{2}CrO_{4}- 194g.
x moles of K_{2}CrO_{4}- 32.33g.
x=\frac{1\ mole*32.33g}{194g}=\frac{32.33}{194}=0.17\ mole

The number of moles:
100g of KHCO_{3}
1 mole of KHCO_{3}- 100.1g.
x moles of KHCO_{3}- 100g.
x=\frac{1\ mole*100g}{100.1g}=\frac{100}{100.1}=0.999\ mole

We use a lot of energy in our homes. Where does this energy come from? In a complete sentence, give an example of how you use en
WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

The energy we use in our homes tends to be provided by coal, gas, and oil. These three "fossil fuels" are underground supplies of energy, created millions of years ago, that we drill, mine, or pipe to the surface to satisfy our energy needs today. Most of the energy we use in our vehicles also comes from oil
