Answer is: ph value of pyridine solution is 9.1.
Chemical
reaction: C₅H₅N +
H₂O → C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻.<span>
c(pyridine - C</span>₅H₅N)
= 0.115M.<span>
Kb(C</span>₅H₅N)
= 1.4·10⁻⁹.
[C₅H₅NH⁺] = [OH⁻] = x; equilibrium concentration.<span>
[</span>C₅H₅N] =
0.115 M - x.
Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺] · [OH⁻] / [C₅H₅N].
1.4·10⁻⁹ = x² / (0.115 M -x)
Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH⁻] = 0.0000127 M.<span>
pOH = -log(0.0000127 M) = 4.9</span>
<span>pH = 14 - 4.9 = 9.1.</span>
I think the statement is false. Natural elements do reflect light. Almost everything in this world reflect light. Reflection<span> is when </span>light<span> bounces off an object. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
