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

Cl2 + H2 + 2HCI
Cloud [144]

Answer:

1 and 2

Explanation:

The given equation is:

        Cl₂  +  H₂   →   2HCl

A coefficient is the variable or number before a chemical specie.

In this reaction Cl₂ and H₂ are the reactants;

  The coefficient of Cl₂ is 1,

                                   H₂ is 1,

                                  HCl is 2

The subscript is the number to the lower power after a chemical specie is denoted.

    For Cl₂, it is 2

According to Graham’s law, the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to
VLD [36.1K]

C.  the square root of the mass of the particles.

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Graham's law: the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar masses or  

the effusion rates of two gases = the square root of the inverse of their molar masses:  

\rm \dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{M_2}{M_1} }

or  

\rm M_1\times r_1^2=M_2\times r_2^2

From this equation shows that the greater the mass of the gas, the smaller the effusion rate of the gas and vice versa, the smaller the mass of the gas, the greater the effusion velocity.

So if both gases are at the same temperature and pressure, the above formula can apply

Trimethylamine, (CH3)3N is a weak base (Kb = 6.3 × 10–5). What volume of this gas, measured at STP, must be dissolved in 2.5 Lof
9966 [12]

Answer:

8.9L is the volume of the gas that must be dissolved.

Explanation:

For a weak base, we can find [(CH₃)₃N] using the equation:

Kb = [OH⁻] [[(CH₃)₃NH⁺] / [(CH₃)₃N]

As [OH⁻] = [[(CH₃)₃NH⁺] and [OH⁻] = 10^-pOH = 3.16x10⁻³M:

6.3x10⁻⁵ = [3.16x10⁻³M][3.16x10⁻³M] / [(CH₃)₃N]

[(CH₃)₃N] = 0.1587M

As the volume is 2.5L, moles are:

2.5L * (0.1587mol / L) = 0.3968moles

Using:

PV = nRT

We can solve for volume of the gas as follows:

P = 1atm at STP; n = 0.3968moles; R = 0.082atmL/molK; T = 273.15K at STP

V = 0.3968mol*0.082atmL/molK*273.15K/1atm

V = 8.9L is the volume of the gas that must be dissolved.

Which atom attracts electrons more strongly?
lesya [120]
Bromine attracts electrons more strongly. Cesium is In fact the least electro negative element.

Sodium is more likely to lose an electron because is is less electro negative. Strong electronegativity make the element want more electrons. Sodium has loose electrons with a lower electronegativity so it gives it up easier.
