Reaction of methyl amine with HCl (H+) is:

CH3NH2 + H⁺  ↔ CH3NH3⁺

At equivalence point:

moles of CH3NH2 = moles of HCl

moles of CH3NH2 = 0.350 * 0.125 = 0.0438 moles = moles of HCl

Volume of HCl = 0.0438 / 0.250 = 0.1752 L

Therefore, total volume at eq point = 0.350 + 0.1752 = 0.5252 L

Now, at equivalence point there is 0.0438 moles of CH3NH3+. The new equilibrium is :-

CH3NH3+ ↔ CH3NH2 + H+

where the concentration of CH3NH3+ = 0.0438/0.5252 = 0.083 M

Ka = [CH3NH2][H+]/[CH3NH3+]

Kw/Kb = x²/0.083-x

10⁻¹⁴/4.4*10⁻⁴ = x²/0.083-x

therefore x = [H+] = 1.37*10⁻⁶M

pH = -log[H+] = -log[1.37*10⁻⁶] = 5.86

If you had excess aluminum, how many moles of aluminum chloride could be produced from 21.0 g of chlorine gas, cl2?
AleksandrR [38]
When aluminum metal is made to contact with chlorine gas (Cl₂), a highly exothermic reaction proceeds. This produces aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) powder. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is shown below:

2Al(s) + 3Cl₂(g) → 2AlCl₃(s)

Since it was stated that aluminum is in excess, this means that the amount of AlCl₃ produced will only depend on the amount of Cl₂ gas available. The molar mass of Cl₂ is 70.906 g/mol. Using stoichiometry, we have the following equation:

(21.0 g Cl₂/ 70.906 g/mol Cl₂) x 2 mol AlCl₃/ 2 mol Cl₂ = 0.1974 mol AlCl₃

Thus, we have determined that 0.1974 <span>moles of aluminum chloride can be produced from 21.0 g of chlorine gas. </span>

1 What characteristic of an element determines how its atoms can bond with other<br> atoms?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

The electrons of the outermost energy level determine the energetic stability of the atom and its tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms to form molecules. Under standard conditions, atoms fill the inner shells first, often resulting in a variable number of electrons in the outermost shell.

Dafna1 [17]
In the dark waters just below the photic zone, because of cellular respiration, the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide is higher relative to dissolved oxygen. 
In cellular respiration living organisms use oxygen and release carbon dioxide, because there is little or no light there is no photosynthesis and oxygen is little produced.

What would be the pH of a solution of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 0.001 M?
son4ous [18]

0001 M HCl is the same as saying that 1 *10-4 moles of H+ ions have been added to solution. The -log[. 0001] =4, so the pH of the solution =4.
