Consider the following data on some weak acids and weak bases

Chemistry

SpyIntel [72]3 years ago

Answer:

b < c < a < d

Explanation:

The weak acid with the lowest pKa will be the most acidic. In the other way, the conjugate base which the acid is weak will be strong.

The weak base with the lowest pKb will be the most basic. And the conjugate base of the weak base will be a strong acid.

Ka Acetic acid = 1.8x10-5

Ka HCN = 1.9x10-10

Kb pyridine = 1.7x10-9

Kb NH3 = 1.8x10-5

NH4Br is the conjugate base of a weak base. That means is a strong acid.

NH4Br has the lowest pH

NaBr is the conjugate base of a strong acid, HBr. That means NaBr is neutral

The most basic between the conjugate base of the acetic acid, NaCH3CO2 and KCN is KCN because the acetic acid is the stronger acid regard to HCN.

The rank is:

NH4Br < NaBr < NaCH3CO2 < KCN

<h3>b < c < a < d</h3>

A solution is prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of NH3 in 250.0 g of water. The density of the resulting solution is 0.974 g/mL. The
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

[NH₃]  → 3.24 M  

Explanation:

Our solute: Ammonia

Our solvent: Water

Solution's mass = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent

Solution's mass = 15 g + 250 g = 265g

We use density to determine, the volume.

D = mass /volume → Volume = m / D →  265 g /0.974 g/mL = 272.07 mL.

We convert the mL to L → 272.07 mL . 1L /1000mL = 0.27207 L

To determine molarity we need the moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

Moles of solute are: 15g / 17g/mol = 0.882 moles

[NH₃] = 0.882mol /0.27207 L → 3.24 M

For the reaction KClO2⟶KCl+O2 KClO2⟶KCl+O2 assign oxidation numbers to each element on each side of the equation. K in KClO2:K i
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula of the reaction:

            KClO₂ → KCl + O₂

To assign oxidation numbers, we have to obey some rules:

  1. Elements in an uncombined state or one whose atoms combine with one another to form molecules have an oxidation number of zero.
  2. The charge on simple ions signifies their oxidation number.
  3. The algebraic sum of all the oxidation number of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero. For radicals with charges, their oxidation number is the charge.

The oxidation number of K in KClO₂:

                                   K + (-1) + 2(-2) = 0

                                    K-5 = 0

                                    K = +5

The oxidation number of K in KCl:

                                K + (-1) = 0

                                K = +1

The oxidation number Cl in KClO₂ is -1

For Cl in KCl, the oxidation number is -1

For O in KClO₂, the oxidation number is (2 x -2) = -4

For O in O₂, the oxidation number is 0

K moves from an oxidation state of +5 to +1. This is a gain of electrons and K has undergone reduction. We then say K is reduced.

O moves from an oxidation state of -4 to 0. This is a loss of electrons and O has undergone oxidation. We say O is oxidized.

What is the concentration of h+ ions in a 2.20 m solution of hno3?
kvv77 [185]

The question is improperly formatted.

What is the concentration of H+ ions in a 2.2 M solution of HNO3.

Answer:-

2.2 moles of H+ per litre

Explanation:-

M stands for molarity. 2.2 M means 2.2 moles of HNO3 is present per litre of the solution.

Now HNO3 has just 1 H in it's formula. HNO3 would give H+. So 2.2 moles of HNO3 would mean 2.2 moles of H+ per litre.

Write a balanced overall reaction from these unbalanced half-reactions. ln-&gt;ln3+ cd2+-&gt;cd
DochEvi [55]
Oxidation reaction 
In ---> In³⁺ + 3e ---1)
reduction reaction
Cd²⁺ + 2e ---> Cd ---2)
when balancing the reactions, electrons have to be balanced. to balance the electrons multiple 1st reaction by 2 and 2nd reaction by 3
1) x 2
2) x 3
2In ---> 2In³⁺ + 6e
3Cd²⁺ + 6e ---> 3Cd
add the 2 equations to obtain the overall reaction
