(b) What is the pOH of 1.35x10⁻³ M HCl? Is the solution neutral, acidic, or basic?

1 answer:

5 0

The pOH scale is similar to the pH scale in that a pOH of 7 is indicative of a neutral solution. A basic solution has a pOH less than 7, while an acidic solution has a pOH of greater than 7

<h3>What is pOH scale?</h3>

Based on the relative concentration of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions, the pH and pOH scales are used primarily in chemistry, biology, and soil science to describe and measure the acidity and basicity of neutral, acidic, and basic solutions in water.

The terms pH and pOH scale are frequently used and crucial for determining the chemical, biological, and soil health by converting the values of hydrogen or hydroxyl ion concentrations or by utilizing pH paper and meters.

The pH scale or chart, which measures the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in acidic and alkaline solutions, was initially developed by Sorensen.

Yes, The tectonic plates are always moving and interacting today. The continents are still moving today. Because sometimes of the most dynamic sites of tectonic activity are seafloor spreading zones and giant rift valleys.

Acid palmitic acid has higher melting point, because it has two more methylene groups.

$\text { Myristic acid } \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{12} \mathrm{COOH} \\& \text { Palmitic acid } \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{14} \mathrm{COOH} \\$

Acid palmitic acid has higher melting point, because it has two more methylene groups.

Giving it a greater surface area and therefore more intermolecular van der waals interact than the myristic acid.

stearic arid $\mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{16} \mathrm{COOH}$

linoleic acid $\mathrm{C}_{18} \mathrm{H}_{32} \mathrm{O}_2$ (two double bond)

Stearic acid has higher Melting point, because it does not have any Carbon-Carbon double bonds, whereas linoleic acid has two cis double bonds which prevent the molecules from packing closely together.

Oleic Acid and Linoleic acid.

$\mathrm{C}_{18} \mathrm{H}_{34} \mathrm{O}_2$ -one double bond (cis)
