What's different about the valence electrons of Carbon and Silicon?

Chemistry
1 answer:
STatiana [176]2 years ago
3 0

Carbon is smaller in size than Silicon. ... Carbon has high ionization enthalpy than silicon and lower electron gain enthalpy than Si! Explanation: It is placed in the periodic table before Silicon and lack a d-orbital smaller size due to which effective nuclear force on the valence shell is much higher than in Si!

Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Figure 6. An instant cold pack consists of a bag containing solid ammonium nitrate and a second bag of water. When the bag of water is broken, the pack becomes cold because the dissolution of ammonium nitrate is an endothermic process that removes thermal energy from the water.

What is the pH of a solution which is 0.600 M in dimethylamine ((CH3)2NH) and 0.400 M in dimethylamine hydrochloride ((CH3)2NH2C
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

pH = 11.05

Explanation:

It is possible to answer this question using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A] / [HA⁺]

Where A in this case is weak base (dimethylamine) and conjugate acid (HA⁺) is dimethylamine hydrochloride.

As Ka= Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 7.4x10⁻⁴ = 1.35x10⁻¹¹ And pKa is -log Ka = <em>10.87 </em> pH of the solution is:

pH = 10.87 + log₁₀ [0.600] / [0.400]

<em>pH = 11.05</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
