Answer:

10.10

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the basic dissociation reaction for pyridine

C₅H₅N(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ C₅H₅NH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) Kb = 1.9 × 10⁻⁹

Step 2: Calculate [OH⁻]

For a weak base, we will use the following expression.

[OH⁻] = √(Cb × Kb) = √(9.2 × 1.9 × 10⁻⁹) = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ M

Step 3: Calculate pOH

We will use the definition of pOH.

pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ = 3.9

Step 4: Calculate pH

We will use the following expression.

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 3.9 = 10.10

Is air an element, compound or mixture? explain your answer

emmainna [20.7K]

It is a mixture because the compounds that make up air e.g. oxygen (o2), Carbon dioxide (co2) and the most important Nitrogen which is an element and makes up 78.09% of air are not chemically bound in the way that compounds are because they can be separated easily and there has been no change in state to any of the compounds or elements in air!hope this helpful!

What is the half-life of a pharmaceutical if the initial dose is 500 mg and only 31 mg remains after 6 hours?

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{b. 1.5 h}}$

Explanation:

1. Calculate the rate constant

The integrated rate law for first order decay is

$\ln \left (\dfrac{A_{0}}{A_{t}}\right ) = kt$

where

A₀ and A_t are the amounts at t = 0 and t

k is the rate constant

$\begin{array}{rcl}\ln \left (\dfrac{500}{31}\right) & = & k \times 6\\\\\ln 16.1 & = & 6k\\2.78& =& 6k\\k & = & \dfrac{2.78}{6}\\\\& = & 0.463 \text{ h}^{-1}\\\end{array}$

2. Calculate the half-life

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k} = \dfrac{\ln2}{\text{0.463 h}^{-1}} = \textbf{1.5 h}\\\\ \text{The half-life is $\large \boxed{\textbf{1.5 h}}$}$

According to Le Châtelier's principle, what happens if heat is added to a system? apex

anzhelika [568]

Explanation:

Le Chatelier's principle states that for a long period of time if a system is at equilibrium and it is subjected to change in concentration, temperature, volume or pressure then the system shifts to a new equilibrium.

This change will partly counter acts the applied change.

Therefore, when heat is added to the system then equilibrium will shift to the side where temperature or heat is reduced again.

For example, $A + 2B \leftrightharpoons C + D$

Since heat is added to the system, hence, system will shift to the left side or we can say equilibrium will shift to the backward direction.

A fusion reaction always creates which of the following?

ICE Princess25 [194]

A fusion reaction can be regarded as the type of reaction that occurs where two lighter elements come together in a type of reaction giving rise to a heavier/more massive element.

A fusion reaction always creates a more massive atomic nucleus (option c).

When the two lighter nuclei comes together in a reaction, a more heavier/massive nucleus is formed but its mass will still be less than the combined mass of the two reactant nuclei.

This also indicates that the left over mass may have been released as energy.
