Answer:

Explanation:

Kb of  (CH₃)₃N is 7.4 x 10⁻⁵

initial concentration of (CH₃)₃N   a   is .48 M

(CH₃)₃N    +   H₂O =  (CH₃)₃NH⁺  +  OH⁻

a - x                                     x               x  

x² / (a - x )  = Kb

x is far less than a so a - x can be replaced by a .

x² / a   = Kb

x²  = a x Kb = .48 x 7.4 x 10⁻⁵ = 3.55 x 10⁻⁵ = 35.5 x 10⁻⁶

x = 5.96 x 10⁻³

pOH = - log ( 5.96 x 10⁻³ )

= 3 - log 5.96

= 3 - .775

= 2.225

In the reaction a b c, doubling the concentration of a doubles the reaction rate and doubling the concentration of b does not af
PolarNik [594]
The reaction must be a + b --> c

Then you can predict a reaction rate, r o the type r = k * a^n * b^m

Given that the reaction rate is not affected by the concentration of b you can state that m = 0 and r = k * a^n.

Now given, that there is a proportional relation between the reaction rate and a (double a gives double rate), then n = 1 and r = k*a. You can verify that if you dobule a r also doubles.

Answer: r = k*a

Which statements describing chemical and nuclear reactions are true?
alexdok [17]

Answer is: 2. Chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons and 5. Isotopes of the same element behave differently in a nuclear reaction.

1) The electrons of an atom participates in a chemical reaction.

2) Chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons, because there is transfer, loss, gain and sharing of electrons in chemical reactions.

3) Nuclear reactions can produce new elements, because number of protons and neutrons is changed.

4) Chemical reactions require heat or an input of energy to occur, this is activation energy.

5) Isotopes of the same element behave differently in a nuclear reaction, because isotopes have different number of neutrons, so products of a nuclear reaction is different.

How many grams of H20 are produced from the reaction of 30.0g of Mg(OH)2 reacting with
Anna35 [415]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of water required is 18.52 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

Given mass of magnesium hydroxide = 30.0 g

Molar mass of magnesium hydroxide = 58.32 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of magnesium hydroxide}=\frac{30.0g}{58.32g/mol}=0.5144 mol

The given chemical equation follows:

Mg(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+2H_2O

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 1 mole of magnesium hydroxide produces 2 moles of water

So, 0.5144 moles of magnesium hydroxide will react with = \frac{2}{1}\times 0.5144=1.0288mol of water

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

\text{Mass of water}=(1.0288mol\times 18g/mol)=18.52g

Hence, the mass of water required is 18.52 g
