<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_c for the net reaction is \frac{K_b}{K_w}

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical equations follows:

<u>Equation 1:</u>  B(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.);K_b

<u>Equation 2:</u>  H^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(l);\frac{1}{K_w}

The net equation follows:

B(aq.)+H^+(aq.)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.);K_c

As, the net reaction is the result of the addition of first equation and the second equation. So, the equilibrium constant for the net reaction will be the multiplication of first equilibrium constant and the second equilibrium constant.

The value of equilibrium constant for net reaction is:

K_c=K_1\times K_2

We are given:  

K_1=K_b

K_2=\frac{1}{K_w}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_c=K_b\times \frac{1}{K_w}=\frac{K_b}{K_w}

Hence, the value of K_c for the net reaction is \frac{K_b}{K_w}

Determine the freezing point and boiling point of a solution that has 68.4 g of sucrose
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Freezing T° of solution = - 3.72°C

Boiling T° of solution =  101.02°C

Explanation:

To solve this we apply colligative properties. Firstly, freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m . i

ΔT = Freezing T° of pure solvent - Freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant, for water is 1.86 °C/m

m = molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

i = Ions dissolved in solution

Our solute is sucrose, an organic compound so no ions are defined. i = 1.

Let's determine the moles: 68.4 g . 1mol/ 342g = 0.2 moles

molality = 0.2 mol / 0.1kg of water = 2 m

We replace data: ΔT = 1.86°C/m . 2m . 1

Freezing T° of solution = - 3.72°C

Now, we apply elevation of boiling point: ΔT = Kb . m . i

ΔT = Boiling T° of solution - Boiling T° of  pure solvent

Kf = Ebulloscopic constant, for water is 0.512 °C/m

We replace:

Boiling T° of solution - Boiling T° of pure solvent = 0.512 °C/m . 2 . 1

Boiling T° of solution = 0.512 °C/m . 2 . 1 + 100°C → 101.02°C

What is the final concentration of cl- ion when 250 ml of 0.20 m cacl2 solution is mixed with 250 ml of 0.40 m kcl solution? (as
serious [3.7K]

CaCl2 and KCl are both salts which dissociate in water when dissolved. Assuming that the dissolution of the two salts are 100 percent, the half reactions are:

<span>CaCl2 ---> Ca2+  +  2 Cl-</span>

KCl ---> K+ + Cl-

Therefore the total Cl- ion concentration would be coming from both salts. First, we calculate the Cl- from each salt by using stoichiometric ratio:

Cl- from CaCl2 = (0.2 moles CaCl2/ L) (0.25 L) (2 moles Cl / 1 mole CaCl2)

Cl- from CaCl2 = 0.1 moles

 

Cl- from KCl = (0.4 moles KCl/ L) (0.25 L) (1 mole Cl / 1 mole KCl)

Cl- from KCl = 0.1 moles

 

Therefore the final concentration of Cl- in the solution mixture is:

Cl- = (0.1 moles + 0.1 moles) / (0.25 L + 0.25 L)

Cl- = 0.2 moles / 0.5 moles

<span>Cl- = 0.4 moles             (ANSWER)</span>

7. Ionic bonds are at one end of the bond spectrum. What kinds of bonds are at the other end?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

non-polar covalent bonds

this is when the electronegativity difference between the two non-metal atoms is very little to cause a partial charge (delta positive and delta negative; δ+ and δ-) on the atoms

Boats typically have several metal fittings where ropes can be fastened. What is the name for these metal fittings?
nadezda [96]
The name for these metal fittings is cleats.
Cleats refer to the hooks on your boat and the dock where you can fasten a boat in order to keep it from flowing away while you're not using it. A keel is located under your boat and provides stability; a transom is the part of your boat on the stern where the motor is located; a tiller is a lever you use to turn your boat.
