The next 3 questions will walk you through using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for the following question. For each step provide a numerical answer. A solution is made by combining 300mL of 0.020M trimethyl amine, that is (CH3)3N and a 500mL of a 0.03M solution of it's conjugate acid, that is (CH3)3NH . The Kb for trimethyl amine is 6.3x10-5. The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation uses pKa not Kb, Calculate the pKa

Why should the scientific method be used to answer a question? a. it provides a way to test an idea without any bias. b. it provides a way to test a hypothesis. c. it provides a way to ensure all hypotheses are proven correct. d. it provides a way to quickly turn a hypothesis into a scientific theory.

The atomic radius of sodium is 186 pm and of chlorine is 100 pm. the ionic radius for na+ is 102 pm and for cl– is 181 pm. in going from na to cl in period 3, why does the atomic radius decrease while the ionic radius increases? a. the inner electrons in the sodium cation shield its valence electrons more effectively than the inner electrons in the chloride anion do. b. the inner electrons shield the valence electrons more effectively in the chlorine atom than in the chloride anion. c. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a smaller effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. d. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a larger effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. e. monatomic ions are bigger than the atoms from which they are formed.
