Find the pH and fraction of association of a 0.100 M solution of the weak base B with Kb = 1.00 x 10^5.

Answer:

Fraction of association = 0.01

pH = 11

Explanation:

A weak base, B, is in equilibrium with water as follows:

B(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Where Kb is defined as:

Kb = 1.00x10⁻⁵ = [BH⁺] [OH⁻] / [B]

Some B will react producing BH⁺ and OH⁻:

[BH⁺] = X

[OH⁻] = X

[B] = 0.100M - X

As Kb <<< [B] we can say:

[B] ≈ 0.100M

Replacing:

1.00x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.100]

1.00x10⁻⁶ = X²

X = 1x10⁻³M = [BH⁺] = [OH⁻]

The fraction of association is [BH⁺] / [B] = 1x10⁻³M / 0.100M = 0.01

As [OH⁻] = 1x10⁻³M, pOH = -log[OH⁻] = 3

pH = 14- pOH

<h3>pH = 11</h3>

Write the structure of the ionized form of phenylalanine
Licemer1 [7]
Amino Acids undergo a kind of acid base reaction within a molecule. The Amino group acts as a base and accepts proton from Carboxylic functional group resulting in formation of Ammonium with positive charge and a negative charge on Carboxylate. Such molecules containing both positive and negative charges are called as Zwittor Ions. Phenylalanine both in Un-ionized and Ionized form is shown below,

When will diffusion slow down
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Exchange across cell membranes - diffusion. The higher the concentration gradient, the faster the rate of facilitated diffusion, up to a point. As equilibrium is reached the concentration gradient is much lower because the difference in concentrations is very small so the rate of facilitated diffusion will slow down and level off.

How can I differentiate between Ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and acids given only the formula? I need to be able to fin
VikaD [51]
You can differentiate between ionic, covalent and molecular compounds by the fact that ionic compounds contain elements that include both a metal and a nonmetal. Molecular compounds contain both non metals covalently bonded to each other. While acids most often on their chemical formula start with the element of Hydrogen - H.

For Eg - sulphuric acid
H2SO4
hydrochloric acid - HCl.
