Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

     pH of HNO₃ = 3.75

   

Unknown:

  [OH⁻], concentration of hydroxyl ions = ?

   pOH of the solution = ?

 Solution

 The pH or pOH scale is a convenient way of expressing the level of acidity or alkalinity of aqueous solutions.  

   The pH of a solution is the negative logarithm to base 10 of the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution:

      pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

      pOH = -log₁₀[OH⁻]

 For any aqueous solution, the sum of the pH and pOH is 14. That is;

                     pH + pOH = 14

Now solving for [OH⁻]:

               HNO₃ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + NO₃⁻

    Since pH + pOH = 14

               pOH = 14 - pH = 14 -3.75 = 10.25

  since pOH = -log₁₀[OH⁻]

              10.25 = -log₁₀(OH⁻)

              [OH⁻] = inverse log₁₀(-pOH)

              [OH⁻] = inverse log₁₀(-10.25) = 5.62 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³

Answer:

5.62×10⁻¹¹ M

Explanation:

Given the pH of the nitric acid, (HNO_3)

pH = 3.75

Also, pH + pOH = 14  

So, pOH = 14 - 3.75 = 10.25

pOH is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide ion concentration.

Thus,

pOH = -log[OH⁻ ]

So,

10.25 = -log[OH⁻ ]

[OH⁻ ] = Antilog (-10.25) = 5.62×10⁻¹¹ M

1. Express in conventional notation (no exponents) in the space provided within the
mina [271]

Answer:

a) 320: two significant figures.

b) 2,366: four significant figures.

c) 73.0: three significant figures.

d. 532.5: four significant figures.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to write each number by knowing we move the decimal places to the right as much as the exponent is, and also, we count every figure, even zeros, because they are to the right of the first nonzero digit:

a) 320: two significant figures because the rightmost zero is not preceded o followed by a decimal place.

b) 2,366: four significant figures.

c) 73.0: three significant figures, because the zero is followed by the decimal place.

d. 532.5: four significant figures.

Regards!
