1: Given that Ka for HCOOH is 1.8×10^-4 at 25°C what is the value of b for COOH− at 25 °C? Kb=
2: Given that b for (CH3)2 NH is 5.4×10^-4 at 25°C, what is the value of Ka for (CH3)2NH+2 at 25 °C?
Ka=

Explanation:

At 25 °C Dissociation constant of water or Kw = 1× 10^-14 mol2dm-6

Ka × Kb = Kw for all diluted solutions

Ka×Kb = 1 × 10^-14 mol2dm-6

Therefore for question 1 -

COOH- is the conjugate base for HCOOH ( we find the conjugate base by removing an H atom and the Conjugate acid by adding an H atom)

COOH- (aq) + H2O ( l) <> HCOOH( aq) + OH-(aq)

So we can apply the above mentioned equation to find Kb value for COOH-

Kb = 5.56 × 10^-11 moldm-3

For question 2-

We can see that (CH3)2NH+2 is the conjugate acid of (CH3)2 NH. (A H atom has been removed so the one with a H atom less is the conjugate base.)

(CH3)2NH+2 (aq) + H2O (l) <> (CH3)2 NH (aq) + H3O+ (aq)

So applying the previously mentioned equation we get Ka = 1.85 × 10^-11 moldm-3
