Determine the pH of a buffer which is a 0.20 M solution of trimethylamine (N(CH3)3) and a 0.40 M solution of trimethylammonium c

hloride (NH(CH3)3Cl). The Kb of trimethylamine at 25°C is 6.3x10-5.

Answer:

pH of the buffer is 10.10

Explanation:

trimethylamine is a weak base that, in presence with its conjugate base, trimethylammonium ion, produce a buffer.

To determine the pH of the buffer we use H-H equation for weak bases:

pOH = pKb + log [Conjugate acid] / [Weak base]

<em>pKb is -log Kb = 4.20</em>

<em />

pOH = 4.20 + log [N(CH₃)₃] / [NH(CH₃)₃]

Replacing the concentrations of the problem:

pOH = 4.20 + log [0.20M] / [0.40M]

pOH = 3.90

As pH = 14 -pOH

<h3>pH of the buffer is 10.10</h3>

If 1.320 moles of CH4 reacts completely with oxygen, how many grams of H2O can be formed
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

47.5 g of water can be formed

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

CH₄  +  2O₂  →  CO₂ + 2H₂O

Methane combustion.

In this process 1 mol of methane react with 2 moles of oxygen to produce 2 moles of water and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

As ratio is 1:2, I will produce the double of moles of water, with the moles of methane I have.

1.320 mol  .2 = 2.64 moles

Now, we can convert the moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

2.64 mol . 18g/mol = 47.5 g

During a synthesis reaction, 1.8 grams of magnesium reacted with 6.0 grams of oxygen. What is the maximum amount of magnesium ox
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

2.9 grams.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced reaction:

<em>Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO,</em>

1.0 mole of Mg reacts with 0.5 mole of oxygen to produce 1.0 mole of MgO.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of (1.8 g) of Mg and (6.0 g) of oxygen:

no. of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass = (1.8 g)/(24.3 g/mol) = 0.074 mol.

no. of moles of O₂ = mass/molar mass = (6.0 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 0.375 mol.

<em>So. 0.074 mol of Mg reacts completely with (0.074/2 = 0.037 mol) of O₂ which be in excess.</em>

<em></em>

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

1.0 mole of Mg produce → 1.0 mol of MgO.

∴ 0.074 mol of Mg produce → 0.074 mol of MgO.

<em>∴ The amount of MgO produced = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (0.074 mol)(40.3 g/mol) = <em>2.98 g.</em>
