What is the ph of a solution labeled .30 trimethylamine k for trimethylamine is 7.42 x 10^4

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:the pH is 12

Explanation:

First We need to understand the structure of trimethylamine

Due to the grades of the bond in the nitrogen with a hybridization sp3 is 108° approximately, then is generated a dipole magnetic at the upper side of the nitrogen, this dipole magnetic going to attract a hydrogen molecule of the water making the water more alkaline

C3H9N+ H2O --> C3H9NH + OH-

$k=\frac{[C3H9NH]*[OH-]}{[C3H9N]}$

Then:

The concentration of the trimethylamine is 0.3 and the concentration of the ion C3H9NH is equal to the OH- relying on the stoichiometric equation. We could find the concentration of the OH- ion with the square root of the multiplication between k and the concentration of trimethylamine

[OH-]= $\sqrt{ 0.3*7.42x10^{-4}}$
