Answer:

pH = 10.396

Explanation:

CH3NH2 + H2O ↔ CH3NH3+  +  OH-

⇒ pKb = -log ( Kb ) = 3.36

⇒ Kb = 4.365 E-4 = ( [ CH3NH3+ ] * [ OH- ] ) / [ CH3NH2 ]

CH3NH3Cl ↔   CH3NH3+  +  Cl-

  0.175 M            0.175 M       0.175 M

mass balance:

M CH3NH2 + M CH3NH3Cl = [ CH3NH3+ ] + [ CH3NH2 ] = 0.100 + 0.175 = 0.275

load balance:

[ CH3NH3+ ] = [Cl- ] + [ OH- ] ......... [ OH- ] from water

∴ [ Cl- ] = 0.175 M

⇒ [ CH3NH3+ ] = 0.175

in the mass balance:

⇒ 0.275 = 0.175 + [ CH3NH2 ]

⇒ 0.1 = [ CH3NH2 ]

⇒ Kb = 4.365 E-4 = (( 0.175 ) * [ OH- ] ) / (0.1 )

⇒ 4.365 E-5= 0.175 [ OH-]

⇒ [ OH- ] = 2.494 E-4

⇒ pOH = - log ( 2.494 E-4)

⇒ pOH = 3.6

⇒ pH = 14 - pOH

⇒ pH = 10.396

Explain why the pbcl2 dissolved when water was added
lara [203]

PbCl2 would not dissolve because it is insoluble based on the solubility rules for substances that will dissolve in water. This compound would instead form a solid precipitate at the bottom of the container.
