Answer:

<h2>Petroleum and coaltar are the main sources of organic compounds. <u>(edit: Protein is most likely correct because I did some further research and I am mistaken I believe the other answer is right because it is also found to be a source of energy aka protein)</u></h2>

A 50.0 g sample of liquid water at 25.0 degree C is mixed with 29.0 g of water at 45 degree C. The final temperature of the wate

kotegsom [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of water is 32.3°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

When two solutions are mixed, the amount of heat released by solution 1 (liquid water) will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by solution 2 (liquid water)

$Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}$

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

$m_1\times c\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of solution 1 (liquid water) = 50.0 g

$m_2$ = mass of solution 2 (liquid water) = 29.0 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of solution 1 = 25°C = [273 + 25] = 298 K

$T_2$ = initial temperature of solution 2 = 45°C = [273 + 45] = 318 K

c = specific heat of water= 4.18 J/g.K

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$50.0\times 4.18\times (T_{final}-298)=-[29.0\times 4.18\times (T_{final}-318)]\\\\T_{final}=305.3K$

Converting this into degree Celsius, we use the conversion factor:

$T(K)=T(^oC)+273$

$305.3=T(^oC)+273\\T(^oC)=(305.3-273)=32.3^oC$

Hence, the final temperature of water is 32.3°C

Calculate the concentrations of all species present in a 0.26 M solution of ethylammonium chloride (C2H5NH3Cl).

Alina [70]

Answer:

0.00000223

Explanation:

pKa for C2H5NH3+ = 10.7

pKw = 14.0

pKa + pKb = pKw

10.7 + pKb = 14.0

pKb = 14.0 - 10.7

pKb = 3.30

C2H5NH3Cl is a salt of ethylamine and HCl so it will dissolve in water to produce C2H5NH3^+ + Cl^-

The base hydrolysis reaction: C2H5NH3^+(aq) + H2O(l) <=> C2H5NH2(aq) + H3O^+(aq)

This reaction is described by Kb.

Kb = [C2H5NH2][H3O^+]/[C2H5NH3^+]

Let [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+] = x,

so [C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 - x

Kb = x^2/(0.26 - x) = 2.00 x 10^-11

Let's solve for x. In this equation, It is possible to solve without the use quadratic equation. So we can assume that 0.26 - x is approximately equal to 0.26. We won't know until we do the calculation.

We get: x^2 + 2.00 x 10^-11x - 4.99 x 10^-12 = 0

With the use of a quadratic calculator.

x = 2.23 x 10^-6 M = [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+]

0.26 - x is just 0.26 M in this problem because 2.23 x 10^-6 M is insignificant.

[C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 M = [Cl^-]

NOTE:

pH = -log [H3O^+] = -log(2.23 x 10^-6) = 5.65

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Kb is the base dissociation constant
