Answer:

5.7

Explanation:

(C₂H₅)₃NHCl dissociates according to the following equation.

(C₂H₅)₃NHCl ⇒ (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ + Cl⁻

The molar ratio of (C₂H₅)₃NHCl to (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is 1:1. Then, the concentration of (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is Ca = 0.166 M.

(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is the conjugate acid of (C₂H₅)₃N. Given the Kb of (C₂H₅)₃N, we can calculate Ka for (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ using the following expression.

Ka × Kb = Kw

Ka = Kw / Kb

Ka = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.2 × 10⁻⁴

Ka = 1.9 × 10⁻¹¹

(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ dissociates according to the following equation.

(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ ⇄ (C₂H₅)₃N + H⁺

We can calculate [H⁺] using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka) = √(0.166 × 1.9 × 10⁻¹¹) = 1.8 × 10⁻⁶

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 1.8 × 10⁻⁶ = 5.7

What ions will form when baking soda is dissolved in water?
ad-work [718]

Answer:When you add baking powder to water or milk, the alkali and the acidreact with one another and produce carbon dioxide – the bubbles. Sodium bicarbonate is a weak base which is commonly known as baking soda and used in cooking. It weakly ionizes in water: NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + (OH-) + (Na+). u need to stop deleteing my answers ughh

Identify the atomic orbitals in the C-C sigma bond in ethyne (acetylene HC-triplebond-CH)
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

A sigma bond is formed  when a hybrid orbital sp overlaps with another hybrid orbital or with s- or  p- orbital

Ethylene has a structural formula of  H - C≡ C- H

At the ground state; we have :

C    | ⇅ |     |↑ | ↑

        2s       2p

At the excited state, we have:

C    | ↑ |     |↑ | ↑ | ↑

the hybrid orbital

C = | ↑ | ↑ |

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) 2FeCl₃ + 3Li₂S  = Fe₂S₃ ( s )  + 6 LiCl

2Fe⁺³ + 6Li ⁻ + 6Cl⁻ + 3S⁻² = 6Li + 6Cl⁻ + Fe₂S₃ ( s )

b  )

3CH₃COONa +( NH₄)₃PO₄ = 3CH₃COONH₄ + Na₃PO₄

3CH₃COO + 3Na⁺ +  3NH₄⁻  +  PO₄⁺³  = 3CH₃COO⁻ +3NH₄⁺ + Na₃PO₄

c )

HClO₄  + KOH = kClO₄ + H₂O

H ⁺ + ClO₄⁻ +  K⁺ + OH⁻  =  k⁺  ClO₄⁻  + H₂O

d )

NH₄OH + HNO₃ = NH₄NO₃  + H₂O

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ + H⁺ + NO₃⁻ = NH₄⁺ + NO₃⁻ +  H₂O

e )

HNO₂ + KOH = KNO₂ + H₂O

H⁺ + NO₂⁻ + K⁺ + OH⁻ = K⁺ + NO₂⁻ + H₂O

f ) HIO₃ + CaCO₃ ( s ) = Ca( IO₃ )₂ + H₂CO₃

H⁺ + IO₃⁻ + CaCO₃ ( s ) = Ca( IO₃ )₂ + H₂CO₃

g )

c ) is strong acid and strong base

d ) is weak base and strong acid

e ) weak acid and strong base

f ) Strong acid and basic salt
