Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Electrolysis is an example of redox reaction because reduction takes place at cathode and oxidation takes place at anode and both of these reactions take place simultaneously.

An aqueous basic solution has a concentration of 0. 050 m and kb is 4. 4 × 10^-4. What is the concentration of hydronium ion in
Alex_Xolod [135]

An aqueous basic solution has a concentration of 0. 050 m and kb is 4. 4 × 10^-4, the concentration of hydronium ion in this solution (m) is 2.234 × 10⁻¹² M.

Methylamine is an amine which is an organic weak base. Its chemical formula is CH₃NH₂. When it undergoes hydrolysis wherein water is acting as an acid, the reaction would be

CH₃NH₂ + H₂O ⇆  CH₃NH₃ + OH⁻

Then, we use the ICE analysis which stands for Initial-Change-Equilibrium.

CH₃NH₂ + H₂O ⇆  CH₃NH₃ + OH⁻

Initial                    0.05          -                 0         0

Change                 -x                              +x       +x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equilibrium         0.05-x                           x          x

Then, we use the equation for the equilibrium constant of basicity.

Kb = [CH₃NH₃][OH⁻]/[CH₃NH₂] = 4.4×10⁻⁴

4.4×10⁻⁴ = [x][x]/[0.05-x]

[x] = 4.4756×10⁻³

Here, variable x denotes the number of moles of the substance which is involved in the reaction. Since the equilibrium amount of OH⁻ is equal to x, then the concentration of OH⁻ is also 4.4756×10⁻³. Thus,

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = -log[4.4756×10⁻³] = 2.35

The relationship between pOH and pH is that pH + pOH = 14. Thus,

pH = 14 - 2.35 = 11.65

pH = -log[H⁺]

11.65 = -log[H⁺]

[H⁺] = 2.234 × 10⁻¹² M

Thus, we find the concentration of solution is 2.234 × 10⁻¹² M.

HW) Aspirin Poisoning
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The answer is: the body contains chemicals called buffers that resist changes in pH

When you exercise vigorously, the muscle will produce more carbon dioxide which will makes the blood more acidic. Human blood have some mechanism that could prevent the blood pH to stray further from the optimal range. One of the buffer that keep carbon dioxide acidity would be sodium bicarbonate.
