Answer:

Ka = [H₃O⁺] [SO₃²⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]

Kb = [OH⁻] [H₂SO₃] / [HSO₃⁻]

Explanation:

An amphoteric substance as HSO₃⁻ is a substance that act as either an acid or a base. When acid:

HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + SO₃²⁻(aq)

And Ka, the acid dissociation constant is:

<h3>Ka = [H₃O⁺] [SO₃²⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]</h3><h3 />

When base:

HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ OH⁻(aq) + H₂SO₃(aq)

And kb, base dissociation constant is:

<h3>Kb = [OH⁻] [H₂SO₃] / [HSO₃⁻]</h3>

What is the IUPAC name of the following compound?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

(d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the attached picture on which you can see that the main chain has nine carbon atoms, one tripe bond at the fourth carbon and two methyl radicals at the third and seventh carbons respectively, by following the IUPAC rules, the name would be: (d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne since the chain must start at the side closest to the first triple bond due to its priority and subsequently considering the present radicals.

Best regards.

Determine the basic oxidation<br>number for elements in s and p<br>orbitals​
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state, which may be positive, negative or zero, is the hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic, with no covalent component. This is never exactly true for real bonds.

The term oxidation was first used by Antoine Lavoisier to signify reaction of a substance with oxygen. Much later, it was realized that the substance, upon being oxidized, loses electrons, and the meaning was extended to include other reactions in which electrons are lost, regardless of whether oxygen was involved.
