Answer:

D. CH3CH2COO- for CH3CH2COOH; H2PO4 - for H3PO4.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the ionization of a weak acid produces a conjugate acid, molecule to which the leaving H⁺ is added to, and a conjugate base, everything that remains after the withdrawal of the H⁺, we can note down the ionization of each acid down below:

$CH_3CH_2COOH\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2COO^-+H^+\\\\H_3PO_4\rightleftharpoons H^++H_2PO_4^-$

Thus, we notice that the answer is D. CH3CH2COO- for CH3CH2COOH; H2PO4 - for H3PO4 because the phosphoric acid is most likely to ionize to dihydrogen phosphate ions rather than phosphate, or hydrogen phosphate ions it undergoes a stepwise ionization in which the first step is the predominant one.

Best regards!

For a phase change, H0 = 2 kJ/mol and A S0 = 0.017 kJ/(K•mol). What are

34kurt

Answer:

ΔG = -6.5kJ/mol at 500K

Explanation:

We can find ΔG of a reaction using ΔH, ΔS and absolute temperature with the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Computing the values in the problem:

ΔG = ?

ΔH = 2kJ/mol

T = 500K

And ΔS = 0.017kJ/(K•mol)

Replacing:

ΔG = 2kJ/mol - 500K*0.017kJ/(K•mol)

ΔG = 2kJ/mol - 8.5kJ/mol

how many grams of phosphorus (P4) react with 35.5L of O2 at STP to form solid tetraphosphorus decaoxide

algol [13]

Answer:

mass P4 = 35.998 g

Explanation:

P4 + 5O2 → P4O10

∴ STP: P = 1 atm; T = 298 K

∴ V O2= 35.5 L

⇒ nO2 = P.V / R.T

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

⇒ nO2 = ((1 atm)×(35.5L))/((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)(298K))

⇒ nO2 = 1.453 mol O2

⇒ mol P4 = (1.453 molO2)×(mol P4/ 5molO2) = 0.2906 mol P4

∴ Mw P4 = 123.895 g/mol

⇒ mass P4 = (0.2906 mol P4)×(123.895 g/mol) = 35.998 g P4

The benzoate ion, c6h5coo− is a weak base with kb=1.6×10−10. how many moles of sodium benzoate are present in 0.50 l of a soluti

lyudmila [28]

$NaC6H5COO \rightarrow Na{^{+}} + C6H5COO^{-}$

Here the base is a benzoate ion, which is a weak base and reacts with water.

$C6H5COO^{-}(aq) + H2O (l)\leftrightarrow C6H5COOH(aq)+ OH^{-}(aq)$

The equation indicates that for every mole of OH- that is produced , there is one mole of C6H5COOH produced.

Therefore [OH-] = [C6H5COOH]

In the question value of PH is given and by using pH we can calculate pOH and then using pOH we can calculate [OH-]

pOH = 14 - pH

pH given = 9.04

pOH = 14-9.04 = 4.96

pOH = -log[OH-] or $[OH^{-}] = 10^{^{-pOH}}$

$[OH^{-}] = 10^{^{-4.96}}$

$[OH^{-}] = 1.1\times 10^{-5}$

The base dissociation equation kb = $\frac{Product}{Reactant}$

$kb =\frac{[C6H5COOH][OH^{-}]}{[C6H5COO^{-}]}$

H2O(l) is not included in the 'kb' equation because 'solid' and 'liquid' are taken as unity that is 1.

Value of Kb is given = $1.6\times 10^{-10}$

And value of [OH-] we have calculated as $1.1\times 10^{-5}$ and value of C6H5COOH is equal to OH-

Now putting the values in the 'kb' equation we can find the concentration of C6H5COO-

$kb =\frac{[C6H5COOH][OH^{-}]}{[C6H5COO^{-}]}$

$1.6\times 10^{-10} = \frac{[1.1\times 10^{-5}][1.1\times 10^{-5}]}{[C6H5COO^{-}]}$

$[C6H5COO^{-}] = \frac{[1.1\times 10^{-5}][1.1\times 10^{-5}]}{1.6\times 10^{-10}}$

$[C6H5COO^{-}] = 0.76 M$ or $0.76\frac{mol}{L}$

So, Concentration of NaC6H5COO would also be 0.76 M and volume is given to us 0.50 L , now moles can we calculated as : Moles = M X L

Moles of NaC6H5COO would be = $0.76(\frac{mol}{L}) \times (0.50L)$

Moles of NaC6H5COO (sodium benzoate) = 0.38 mol
