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

A mixture of 117.9 g of P and 121.8 g of O, reacts completely to form P4O6 and P4O10. Find the masses of P4O6 and P4O10

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Mass of P4O6=103.4

P4O10=133.48

Explanation:

Balanced reaction is:

8P +8 $O_{2}$ ⇒ $P_{4} O_{6}$ + $P_{4} O_{10}$

Both reactant completely vanishes as equivalent of bot are equal.

Moles of P= $\frac{117.9}{31}$ =3.80

Moles of $O_{2}$ = $\frac{117.9}{31}$ =3.80

No. of moles of formed product are equal and is $\frac{1}{8}$ th of mole of any of reactant.

Thus weight of $P_{4} O_{6}$ = $\frac{3.80}{8}$ ×220 ≈103.41

weight of $P_{4} O_{10}$ = $\frac{3.80}{8}$ ×284 ≈133.48

(2pts) During the Purification of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) experiment, you will need 50ml of buffer A150. Buffer A150 is 30mM

torisob [31]

Answer:

The answer is " $20 \ mL$ "

Explanation:

Given:

Molarity= number of moles

because it is 1 Liter

$\to \frac{0.03\ moles}{1.5 moles}=0.02\ L= 20 \ mL \ of\ Tris\\\\$

therefore,

it takes 20 mL of Tris.

$\to \frac{0.150 \ moles}{5\ moles} =0.03\ L\\\\$

$= 30 \ mL \ of\ Nacl$

So, take $20 \ mL\ of\ NaCl.$
