Answer:

Conjugate base: Propionate

Explanation:

Conjugate base contains one less proton as compared to it's parent acid. Deprotonation occurs from most acidic region.

Propionic acid deprotonates to produce it's strong conjugate base propionate.

In propionic acid, -OH group in -COOH functional moiety dissociates to produce $H^{+}$ . Because the O-H bond electrons remains highly polarized towards oxygen atom due to electron withdrawing inductive effect as well as resonating effect of -COOH moiety.

Structure of conjugate base has been shown below.

How many grams of carbon dioxide are in 35.6 liters of co2

lina2011 [118]

The grams of carbon dioxide that are in 35.6 liters of Co2 is calculates as below
calculate the number of moles of CO2

At STP 1 mole = 22.4 L

what about 35.6 liters

= 1mole x 35.6 liters/ 22.4 liters = 1.589 moles

mass of CO2 = moles x molar mass of CO2

= 1.589 mol x 44 g/mol = 69.92 grams

What is the osmotic pressure of a 100 ml of toluene solution that contains a total of 0.005 moles of a polymer dissolved in it a

allsm [11]

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis.

That can be mathematical computed from the expression:

Osmotic pressure=C×R×T

Where,

C= Concentration

R=Gas constant

T=Temperature

Concentration=Number of moles of solute/Volume(L)

=0.005*1000/100

=0.05

R= 0.08206 atm L/mol K

T=25+273

=298

Osmotic pressure= 0.05×0.08206×298

=1.2 atm

A rule of thumb in baking is that 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda is neutralized by one cup of sour milk. the acid component in sour

Sophie [7]

Answer : The ionic equation will be:

$CH_3CH(OH)COO^-(aq)+H^+(aq)+Na^+(aq)+HCO_3^-(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CH(OH)COO^-(aq)+Na^+(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$

Explanation :

Neutralization reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction in which an acid react with a base to give salt and water as a product that means it reacts to give a neutral solution.

When baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) base react with lactic acid then it react to gives sodium lactate, carbon dioxide and water as a product.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

$CH_3CH(OH)COOH(aq)+NaHCO_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CH(OH)COONa(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$

The ionic equation will be:

$CH_3CH(OH)COO^-(aq)+H^+(aq)+Na^+(aq)+HCO_3^-(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CH(OH)COO^-(aq)+Na^+(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$
