Explanation:
According to the question, it is established that the pain caused by a lot of insect bites owes to the acidity of the insect bites.
If this is true, then there is an urgent need to neutralize the acidic insect bite using a basic substance.
Hence the pH of the creams used to treat insect bites should be basic(having a high pH).
2. The compound methene can not exist because it is supposed to be derived from the alkane called methane which contains only one carbon atom.
In order to form an alkene, there must be a double bond between two carbon atoms. This is not possible because there is only one carbon atom in the hypothetical methene. Hence, a compound named methene cannot exist.
acids give away protons (H+), bases accept protons, conjugate bases are what u get when when you take the protons from the acid, and conjugate acids are what u get when you add the protons to the base.
so for (a) the C5H5N is the base, water is the acid, C5H5NH+ is the conj acid, OH- is the conj base
(b) HNO3 is the acid, H2O is the base, hydronium ion is the conj. acid, NO3- is the conj base.
It is a poly atomic anion because it has more than one atom and a negative charge
Given:
175 kilograms of Methane (CH4) to be synthesized into Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN)
The balanced chemical equation is shown below:
2 CH4<span> + 2 NH</span>3<span> + 3 O</span>2<span> → 2 HCN + 6 H</span>2<span>O
</span>
To calculate for the masses of ammonia and oxygen needed, our basis will be 175 kg CH4.
Molar mass:
CH4 = 16 kg/kmol
NH3 = 17 kg/kmol
O2 = 32 kg/kmol
mass of NH3 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (2/2) * 17 kg/kmol
mass of NH3 = 185.94 kg NH3 needed
mass of O2 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (3/2) * 32 kg/kmol
mass of O2 = 525 kg
mass of O = 525 kg / 32 kg/kmol * (1/2) * 16 kg/kmol
mass of O = 131.25 kg O
A logarithmic scale is a nonlinear scale used when there is a large range of quantities
