Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}

Whereas the moles of the salt are computed as shown below:

n_{salt}=0.021L*0.68mol/L=0.01428mol

So we can divide those moles by the total volume (0.021L+0.0066L=0.0276L) to obtain the concentration of the final salt:

[salt]=0.01428mol/0.0276L=0.517M

Now, we need to keep in mind that this is an acidic salt since the base is weak and the acid strong, so the determinant ionization is:

C_6H_5NH_3^++H_2O\rightleftharpoons  C_6H_5NH_2+H_3O^+

Whose equilibrium expression is:

Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5NH_2][H_3O^+]}{C_6H_5NH_3^+}

Now, since the Kb of C6H5NH2 is 4.3 x 10^-10, its Ka is 2.326x10^-5 (Kw/Kb), we can also write:

2.326x10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{0.517M}

Whereas x is:

x=\sqrt{0.517*2.326x10^{-5}}\\\\x=3.47x10^-3

Which also equals the concentration of hydrogen ions; therefore, the pH at the equivalence point is:

pH=-log(3.47x10^{-3})\\\\pH=2.46

Regards!

How many minutes will it take to plate out 4.50 g of Cu from a solution of Cu(NO3)2 (aq) onto the cathode of an electrolytic cel
ipn [44]

Answer:

It will take 28.5 minutes

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of Cu = 4.50 grams

8.00 A of current are used

Molar mass of Cu = 63.5 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate time needed

Cu2+ →Electricity → Cu

we notice a flow of 2 electrons ⇒ This means the Faraday constant = 2F

Since Molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol

63.5 grams of Cu is deposited by 2*96500 C

4.50 grams of Cu ((2*96500)/63.5)  * 4.50 = 13677.17 C

Q = It

13677.17 = 8t*60 seconds

t = 28.5 minutes

Predict the formula of the ionic compound that would result from combining the monatomic ions formed by each pair of elements. M
skad [1K]

Answer:

E - Be and O

A - Mg and N

E - Li and Br

F - Ba and Cl

B - Rb and O

Explanation:

Be and O

Be is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Be²⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BeO (E-MX).

Mg and N

Mg is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Mg²⁺ and N is a nonmetal that gains 3 e⁻ to form O³⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Mg₃N₂ (A-M₃X₂).

Li and Br

Li is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Li⁺ and Br is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Br⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form LiBr (E-MX).

Ba and Cl

Ba is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Ba²⁺ and Cl is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Cl⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BaCl₂ (F-MX₂).

Rb and O

Rb is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Rb⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Rb₂O (B-M₂X).
