Answer is: ph value of pyridine solution is 9.1.

Chemical reaction: C₅H₅N + H₂O → C₅H₅NH⁺ + OH⁻.<span>
c(pyridine - C</span>₅H₅N) = 0.115M.<span>
Kb(C</span>₅H₅N) = 1.4·10⁻⁹.
[C₅H₅NH⁺] = [OH⁻] = x; equilibrium concentration.<span>
[</span>C₅H₅N] = 0.115 M - x.

Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺] · [OH⁻] / [C₅H₅N].

1.4·10⁻⁹ = x² / (0.115 M -x)

Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH⁻] = 0.0000127 M.<span>
pOH = -log(0.0000127 M) = 4.9</span>

<span>pH = 14 - 4.9 = 9.1.</span>

When benzene (c6h6) reacts with bromine (br2) bromobenzene(c6h5br) is obtained: c6h6 + br2 → c6h5br + hbr what is the theoretica
saveliy_v [14]

Answer A) : We have to calculate the number of moles of Benzene involved in the reaction,

30 g / 78 moles of benzene = 0.384 moles


For bromine it will be the same process,

65 g / 159.8 moles = 0.406 moles


By observing the reaction given above we can say that the reaction ratio of bromine and benzene is 1 : 1


We need to find the mass of bromobenzene,

which should be, 6(12) + 5 (1)+ 79.90 = 156.9 g/mol


So, the mass of bromobenzene will be 156.9 g/mol X 0.3846 mol = 60.343 g


Hence the theoretical yield will be 60.34 g


Answer B) : To calculate the actual yield we have to divide it with theoretical yield.


(56.7g / 60.343 g ) X100% = 93.96 %


Here, we can say that we got 93.96 % of actual yield.


As we know it is impossible to get 100% yield in any reaction.

A fog over a lake. what two changes of state must occur to produce the fog? do the water molecules absorb or release energy duri
Zolol [24]
The water from the lake must first evaporate from the liquid state to the gaseous state and then condense in the air to form vapors.
The water molecules absorb energy while evaporating and release it when condensing. Their motion gets faster when they are evaporating and slows back down upon condensation.

You used a calorimeter in the heat transfer lab. Explain how the calorimeter works, and how to calculate the heat given off or a
Olenka [21]
A calorimeter contains reactants and a substance to absorb the heat absorbed. The initial temperature (before the reaction) of the heat absorbent is measured and then the final temperature (after the reaction) is also measured. The absorbent's specific heat capacity and mass are also known. Given all of this data, the equation:
Q = mcΔT 
To find the heat released.
