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>

Both cholesterol and oleic acid are lipids. What property do they have in common?
OLga [1]
Cholesterol and oleic acid are non-polar (hydrophobic) compounds, soluble in organic solvents. Most membrane lipids are amphipathic, having a non-polar end and a polar end. Oleic acid and other fatty acids are hydrophobic (not soluble in water).

Explain why copper is used for the<br> roofs of some buildings and magnesium is not.
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Because of the less reactivity of copper.

Explanation:

As well as being resistant to the elements and thereby less likely to be affected by rainfall, hail, and mildew than other types of roofing, copper is also one of the most fireproof materials available. Copper is also highly resistant to thermal changes and thereby doesn't deteriorate quickly.

Magnesium would also corrode PDQ. Magnesium sheeting would also pose an unacceptably high fire hazard.
