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

what happens when an object speeds up,slows down, or changes direction A) velocity B) time C) deceleration D) acceleration
HACTEHA [7]
Whenever the motion of an object changes . . . speeding up, or slowing down, 
or changing direction . . . that change is called "acceleration".  Acceleration is produced by force on the object.If there is no force on the object, then there is no acceleration.  That means that 
its motion doesn't change.  The object remains in constant, uniform motion . 
moving with steady speed, in a straight line.  

No force is necessary to keep an object moving, only to change its motion.

Explain mitosis and meiosis in your own words.
LuckyWell [14K]
I always remembered the differences by Mitosis sounds like My Toes Is. Which means its body cells reproducing. 
And Meiosis is My overies. Which is sex cells reproducing. 

Mitosis - The body cell's nucleus makes a copy of its chromosomes. The Chromotids are then pulled to the poles of the cell and split in half, the cell then divides in half into two new cells. Each cell has one pair of chromosomes each.

Meiosis - The sex cells nucleus makes a copy of each chromosome same as before. But then the similar chromosomes group up and swap parts with each other. Making completely new chromosomes. They then split in half again, making two new cells with two different pairs of chromosomes. Which then split apart Once more creating 4 new cells (From the original one) Each with completely random chromosomes.

Question 14 A student dissolves 1.5g of styrene C8H8 in 225.mL of a solvent with a density of 1.02/gmL . The student notices tha
Yuki888 [10]

We must to know:

Cm = molarity = niu / Vs, when the niu = no. of moles and Vs = Volume of solution

the no. niu = mass / molecular mass of substance

molecular mass of C8H8 = 12x8+8x1 = 104 g/mol

=> niu = 1,5 / 104 = 0,0144 moles C8H8

=> Cm = 0,0144/0,225 = 0,06 mol/L

Cmm = molality = niu (C8H8) / mass of solvent (kg)

=> p = mass / V => mass (solvent) = p x V

=> 225 x 1,02 = 229,5 g solvent = 0,2295 kg solvent

=> Cmm = 0,0144 / 0,229,5 = 0,063
