Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

  • An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Draw the simplified curved arrow mechanism for the reaction of butan-2-one and CH3Li to give the major product.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Please find the image file of the chemical reaction in the attachment:

In a water medium, the CH3- type CH 3Li is a heavy nucleophile that attacks the carbonyl carbon atom to form the alkoxide ion, which will then be protonated to form alcohol.

The process that makes atmospheric nitrogen available to plants by mutualistic and free-living bacteria is called
artcher [175]
Nitrogen fixation is the process that makes atmospheric nitrogen available to plants by mutualistic and free-living bacteria. The process is undertaken by the rhizobium bacteria that live in root roots of plants such as legumes. The mutualistic relationship is that the plant supplies the bacteria with a habitat in which to live, water, and nutrients, and the bacteria supply nitrogen for making plant proteins.

If the initial temperature of a movable cylinder was 50 degrees Celsius
slega [8]

Answer:

8.45 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Initial volume (V₁) = 5 L

Final temperature (T₂) = 0 °C

Final pressure (P₂) = 1 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

Next, we shall convert celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 323 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 0 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 0 °C + 273

Final temperature (T₂) = 273 K

Finally, we shall determine the new volume. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 323 K

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Initial volume (V₁) = 5 L

Final temperature (T₂) = 273 k

Final pressure (P₂) = 1 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

2 × 5 / 323 = 1 × V₂ / 273

10 / 323 = V₂ / 273

Cross multiply

323 × V₂ = 10 × 273

323 × V₂ = 2730

Divide both side by 323

V₂ = 2730 / 323

V₂ = 8.45 L

Thus, the new volume is 8.45 L
