- Write the reaction and the corresponding Kb equilibrium expression for each of the following substances acting as bases in water. a. NH3 b. C5H5Narrow_forwardYou are asked to calculate the H+ concentration in a solution of NaOH(aq). Because sodium hydroxide is a base, can we say there is no H+. since having H+ would imply that the solution is acidic?arrow_forwardWrite the reaction and the corresponding Kb equilibrium expression for each of the following substances acting as bases in water. a. aniline, C6H5NH2 b. dimethylamine, (CH3)2NHarrow_forward
- Pure liquid ammonia ionizes in a manner similar to that of water. (a) Write the equilibrium for the autoionization of liquid ammonia. (b) Identify the conjugate acid form and the base form of the solvent. (c) Is NaNH2 an acid or a base in this solvent? (d) Is ammonium bromide an acid or a base in this solvent?arrow_forwardWhich of the following substances are acids in terms of the Arrhenius concept? Which are bases? Show the acid or base character by using chemical equations. a P4O10 b Na2O c N2H4 d H2Tearrow_forwardWrite the ionization expression and the Kb expression for 0.1 M solutions of the following bases: (a) C2H3O2- (b) C2H5NH2 (c) HC2O4-arrow_forward
- Which of the following do not represent a conjugate acid-base pair? For those pairs that are not conjugate acid-base pairs, write the correct conjugate acid-base pair for each species in the pair. a. HI, I- b. HClO, HClO2 c. H3PO4, PO43- d. H2CO3, CO32-arrow_forwardHow is acid strength related to the value of Ka? What is the difference between strong acids and weak acids (see Table 13-1)? As the strength of an acid increases, what happens to the strength of the conjugate base? How is base strength related to the value of Kb? As the strength of a base increases, what happens to the strength of the conjugate acid?arrow_forward
