17, to be neutral it has to have equal number of protons and electrons
Answer:
exothermic reaction
Explanation:
If there is a drop in temperature, then energy was lost to the surroundings because temperature is the average measure of kinetic energy. An exothermic reaction would result in this lost of energy. An endothermic reaction would absorb energy and make the temperature rise.
pH of solution = 13.033
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
2.31 g Ba(OH)₂
250 ml water
Required
pH of solution
Solution
Barium hydroxide is fully ionized, means that Ba(OH)₂ is a strong base
So we use a strong base formula to find the pH
[OH ⁻] = b. Mb where
b = number of OH⁻
/base valence
Mb = strong base concentration
Molarity of Ba(OH)₂(MW=171.34 g/mol) :

Ba(OH)₂ ⇒ Ba²⁺ + 2OH⁻(b=valence=2)
[OH⁻]= 2 . 0.054
[OH⁻] = 0.108
pOH= - log 0.108
pOH=0.967
pOH+pH=14
pH=14-0.967
pH=13.033
Mole fraction is a unit of concentration, defined to be equal to the number of moles of a component divided by the total number of moles of a solution. Because it is a ratio, mole fraction is a unitless expression. The mole fraction of all components of a solution, when added together, will equal 1.
