Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used as a strong base in organic synthesis. LDA is itself prepared by an acid-base reaction be

tween butyllithium and N,N-diisopropylamine, [(CH3)2CH]2NH. Write an equation for this reaction, and place the appropriate labels on each reagent and product from the following list: stronger acid, stronger base, weaker acid, weaker base.

Explanation:

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used in many organic synthesis and is a strong base. It is prepared by the acid base reaction of N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) and butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ).

The equation is show below as:

[(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH + Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃  ⇒  [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺  + CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃

N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) is a weaker acid and hence,  LDA ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺ ) is stronger base. (Weaker acid has stronger conjugate base)

Butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very strong base and hence, butane ( CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very weak acid. (Strong base has weaker conjugate acid)

Calculate the pH of a buffer solution prepared by mixing 60.0 mL of 1.00 M lactic acid and 25.0 mL of 1.00 M sodium lactate.
marshall27 [118]
This problem could be solved easily using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation used for preparing buffer solutions. The equation is written below:

pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]

Where salt represents the molarity of salt (sodium lactate), while acid is the molarity of acid (lactic acid). 

Moles of salt = 1 mol/L * 25 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.025 moles salt
Moles of acid = 1 mol/L* 60 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.06 moles acid
Total Volume = (25 mL + 60 mL)*(1 L/1000 mL) = 0.085 L

Molarity of salt = 0.025 mol/0.085 L = 0.29412 M
Molarity of acid = 0.06 mol/0.085 L = 0.70588 M

Thus,
pH = 3.86 + log(0.29412/0.70588)
pH = 3.48

Which of the following compounds contains both ionic and covalent bonds? KOH N2O5 CH3OH Na2O
dusya [7]

Answer: a.KOH

Potassium hydroxide is an ionic compound where the K+ is the cation and OH−is the anion. At the same time, the compound also contains a covalent bond since the anion, OH−is formed from electron sharing between the O and H atoms.

Hope this helps........ Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas! :D

At a given temperature, 2.6 atm of h2 and 3.14 atm of cl2 are mixed and allowed to come to equilibrium. the equilibrium pressure
Keith_Richards [23]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>Given:

H2 = </span><span>2.6 atm
CL2 = 3.14 atm</span>

 

<span>
pressure H2 = 2.6 - x 
pressure Cl2 = 3.14 - x 
<span>pressure HBr = 2x = 1.13

x = 1.13 / 2 = 0.565 

<span>pressure H2 = 2.6 - 0.565 = 2.035
pressure Br2 = 3.14 - 0.565 = 2.575 

Kp = (1.13)^2 / 2.035 x 2.575</span></span></span>

 

= 1.2769 / (5.240125)

= 0.24367739319195629875241525726963

= 0.244

<span>Therefore, the Kp for the reaction at the given temperature is 0.244.

To add, </span>the hypothetical pressure of a gas if it alone occupied the whole volume of the original mixture at the same temperature is called the partial pressure or Kp.
