Answer: The K_b for the weak base is 3.5\times 10^{-3}

Explanation:

A^-+H_2O\rightarrow HA+OH^-

cM                   0          0

c-c\alpha           c\alpha       c\alpha 

So dissociation constant will be:

K_b=\frac{[HA][OH^-]}{[A^-]}

K_b=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}

Given :

c= 0.0910 M and pH = 10.50

pOH = 14-pH = 14-10.50 = 3.5

Also pOH=-log[OH^-]

[OH^-]=antilog(-3.5)= 3.2\times 10^{-4}M

[OH^-]=c\alpha=3.2\times 10^{-4}

K_b=\frac{(3.2\times 10^{-4})^2}{(0.0910-3.2\times 10^{-4}}

K_b=\frac{(3.2\times 10^{-4})^2}{(0.09068}

K_b=3.5\times 10^{-3}

Thus K_b for the weak base is 3.5\times 10^{-3}

What was the significance of Thompson’s Plum Pudding model of the atom?
Pani-rosa [81]

The Plum Pudding Model is a model of atomic structure proposed by J.J. Thomson in the late 19th century. Thomson had discovered that atoms are composite objects, made of pieces with positive and negative charge, and that the negatively charged electrons within the atom were very small compared to the entire atom.
