<u>M</u><u>e</u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>a</u><u>n</u><u>e</u><u> </u>is a carbon compound which undergoes combustion to <em><u>release energy</u></em> and form bi production which are <u>Carbon</u><u> </u><u>dioxide</u><u> </u>( CO2 )<u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u> <u>W</u><u>ater</u> ( H20 ).
the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is : -
14. a. Acidic
15. b. Weaker
16. d. Dilute and weak
Explanation:
14. Which type of the solution is one with the pH of 3?
Solution with pH from 1 to 7 are acidic, equal to 7 is neutral and from 7 to 14 basic. The solution with the pH equal to 3 is <u>acidic</u>.
15. The smaller the value of the base dissociation constant (Kb), the <u>weaker</u> the base.
The dissociation reaction of a base (B) is:
B + H₂O → BH⁺ + OH⁻
Kb is defined as:
Kb = ( [BH⁺] × [OH⁻] ) / ( [B] × [H₂O] )
The potency of the base depends on the concentration of the hydroxide ion [OH⁻], so if the Kb ratio is small it means that the concentration of hydroxide ion is smaller so the base will be <u>weaker</u>.
16. A 0.39 M solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed <u>dilute and weak</u>.
The acid is weak because is only slightly ionizing in solution. The therm diluted is a little bit arbitrarily because we ask yourself "diluted in respect with what"? I would characterize the acid to be diluted at a concentration of 1 M and concentrated at a concentration of 10 M.

Methyl orange shows red color in acidic medium and yellow color in basic medium. Because it changes color at the pKa of a mid strength acid, it is usually used in titration for acids. Unlike a universal indicator, methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of color change, but it has a sharp end point.
