Question

A solution has an H3O+ concentration of 3.5 x 10^-5 M. Is it acidic or basic?

Answer 1

The mass of NaCl produced is 0.117 g.

What is the pH?

The pH of a solution is what tells us if the solution is acidic or basic. The solution is acidic if the pH of the solution is less than 7.

1) pH = - log(3.5 x 10^-5 M)

= 4.45

Thus the solution is acidic.

2) We can see that the concentration as given is the concentration of OH^-

[OH ] = 4.0 x 10^-3 M

pOH = -log (4.0 x 10^-3 M)

pOH = 2.39

pH = 14 -  2.39

pH = 11.61

The equation of the reaction is; $NaOH + HCl ----- > NaCl + H2O$

Number of moles of NaOH =  0.40 M * 10/1000 = 0.004 moles

Number of moles of HCl = 0.20 M  * 10/1000 = 0.002 moles

We can see that HCl is the limiting reactant

Mass of NaCl produced ;

0.002 moles * 58.5 g/mol = 0.117 g
