Answer:

pKb = 10.96

Explanation:

Tartaric acid is a dyprotic acid. It reacts to water like this:

H₂Tart  +  H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺   +  HTart⁻         Ka1

HTart⁻  +  H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺   +  Tart⁻²           Ka2

When we anaylse the base, we have

Tart⁻²   +  H₂O  ⇄  OH⁻  +  HTart⁻       Kb1

HTart⁻  +  H₂O  ⇄  OH⁻  +    H₂Tart          Kb2

Remember that Ka1 . Kb2  = Kw, plus pKa1 + pKb2 = 14

Kb2 = Kw / Ka1  →   1×10⁻¹⁴ / 9.20×10⁻⁴  = 1.08×10⁻¹¹

so pKb = - log Kb2   → - log 1.08×10⁻¹¹ = 10.96

Which of these oxides will likely form a colored solution when dissolved in water?
Alik [6]

Mn₂O

Explanation:

The oxide that will most likely form colored solutions is Mn₂O.

This is because most transition metals form colored compounds. Manganese is a transition metal belonging to the d-block on the periodic table.

  • Other examples of transition metals are scandium, titanium, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel, zinc
  • They belong to the d-block on the periodic table.
  • They have variable oxidation states.
  • Most of their solutions are always colored.

Which has more mass, a mole of water (h2o) or a mole of glucose (c6h12o6)?
Semenov [28]
It is important to note that mass and mole pertain to different units of measurement, thus, 1 mole of one substance may have a lower or higher mass compared to a different substance. The mass of an object gives a measure of the number of atoms present in the substance while the number of moles of a substance refers to the amount of a chemical substance it has and is often used for chemical reactions. 

For this problem, we first get the molar mass of each substance:

Molar mass of H2O = 18.0153 g/mol
Molar mass of C6H12O6 = 180.1559 g/mol

We then convert each substance into units of mass (grams), where:

1 mol H20 x 18.0153 g/mol = 18.0153 g H20
1 mol C6H12O6 x 180.1559 g/mol = 180.1559 g C6H12O6

It was then determined that 1 mole of glucose has more mass than 1 mole of water.

Would carbon dioxide or water have a higher boiling point? Explain.
oee [108]

Answer:

Water acutually has a higher boiling point because CO2 will turn into a gas form at a certain temp ( -78 C), so CO2 wouldn't really boil very long.

Hope this helps:)
