Answer:

9

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Concentration of OH⁻ [OH]= 1 x 10⁻⁹M

Solution:

To find the pOH of a solution can be found using the expression below:

                   pOH = -log₁₀[OH]

          [OH] = concentration of the hydroxyl ions

       pOH = -log₁₀(1 x 10⁻⁹) = - x -9 = 9

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The soultion of pOH=9</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

We can determine the acidity or the basicity of the solution using the pOH value.

The solution is acidic if the pOH value ranges from 7.1 to 14

The solution is Basic if the pOH value ranges from 0 to 6.9  

The solution is neutral if the pOH value is 7.

pOH is defined as the negative logarithm of the Hydroxide ion concentration, that’s why the formula to find pOH is given by  

pOH=-log[OH^-]

pOH=-log[1.00\times10^{-9}M]

=-[-9]

pOH=9

(Answer)

<u>Please note :  </u>

A Base is a substance which produces one or more hydroxyl ion or  hydroxide ion (OH-) in aqueous solution.

Examples

NaOH(s)>Na^+ (aq) + OH^- (aq)\\\\KOH(s)>K^+ (aq) +OH^- (aq)\\\\Ca(OH)_2 (s)>Ca^{2+} (aq)  +2OH^{- }(aq)\\\\Al(OH)_3 (s)> Al^{3+} (aq)+ 3OH^- (aq)

<u>Please note: </u>

(aq) stands for aqueous which means in the presence of water that is,water   acts as a solvent

So, on adding a base to the water increase in [OH^-] will take place and this will decrease the Hydrogen ion concentration  

Pure water contains [H^+ ]=[OH^- ]

if the solution is acidic [H^+ ]>[OH^- ]

if the solution is Basic [H^+ ]

- How many moles of H2O are required to react to form 2.5 grams of CH ?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

0.312 moles of H2O

Explanation:

no. of moles of ch4= mass ÷ molar mass

                               =2.5 ÷ 16.04

                               =0.156 moles of ch4

According to balanced chemical equation

CH4        :        H2O

1 mole     :        2 moles

0.156 moles :       x moles  

by cross multiplication

x=  (0.156x2) ÷ 1

 = 0.312 moles of H2O

Define shielding and effective nuclear charge. What is the connection between the two?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The relation between the shielding and effective nuclear charge is given as

Z_{eff} = Z -S

where s denote shielding

z_{eff} denote effective nuclear charge

Z - atomic number

Explanation:

shielding is referred to as the repulsion of an outermost electron to the pull of electron from valence shell.  Higher the electron in valence shell higher will be the shielding effects.  

Effective nuclear charge is the amount of net positive charge that valence electron has.

The relation between the shielding and the effective nuclear charge is given as  

Z_{eff} = Z -S

wheres denote shielding

z_{eff} denote effective nuclear charge  

Z - atomic number

What is a Control trial
AleksandrR [38]
It is a trial aimed to reduce bias during an experiment. An example would be a sugar pill, something that has no real effect so that the results of the true trial can accurately be compared. Its like a control group.
