If the conjugate base of a molecule has a pKb of 1.4, the molecule should be a Weak Acid.
Notice this question gives us the pKb of the molecule, not the pKa. Because of this, the pH scale basically gets reversed, so lower numbers in pKb correlate with stronger bases, and higher numbers in pKb correlate with stronger acids - the exact opposite of the pH scale.
It's important to make sure you completely understand the terms of conjugate base, conjugate acid, pKb, pKa, and how they all relate. It's easy to mix up the meanings of these definitions.
Here are the two other pieces of information you need to know to correctly answer this question:
- Strong acids have a weak conjugate base.
- Strong bases have a weak conjugate acid.
So if the problem says you have a strong conjugate base, then the molecule must be a weak acid. To illustrate this, think of ammonium, NH4+. Ammonium is a weak acid, but the conjugate base of ammonium is ammonia, NH3, which is a reasonably good base.

Answer:
1.05 V
Explanation:
Since;
E°cell= E°cathode- E°anode
E°cathode= -0.40 V
E°anode= -1.45 V
E°cell= -0.40-(-1.45) = 1.05 V
Equation of the process;
2Zr(s) + 4Cd^2+(aq) ---->2Zr^4+(aq) + 4Cd(s)
n= 8 electrons transferred
From Nernst's equation;
Ecell = E°cell - 0.0592/n log Q
Ecell= E°cell - 0.0592/8 log [0.5]/[0.5]
Since log 1=0
Ecell= E°cell= 1.05 V
They both hurt and they both burn lol
they will each create a small burn on your skin if they touch you sometimes visible sometimes not. but both should burn about the same just one is water one is fire
Heat capacity of aluminium = 0.900 J/g°C
While heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C
Heat = heat gained by water + heat gained by aluminium
Heat gained by water = 100 × 4.186 × 30.5
= 12767.3 Joules
Heat gained by aluminium = 15 × 0.9 × 30.5
= 411.75 Joules
Heat required = 13179.05 Joules or 13.179 kJoules
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion. The first or initial ionization energy or Ei of an atom or molecule is the energy required to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of isolated gaseous atoms or ions
