In an undisturbed sequence of layers of rocks, the younger layers lie on top of the older layers
We are given that the concentration of NaOH is 0.0003 M and are asked to calculate the pH
We know that NaOH dissociates by the following reaction:
NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻
Which means that one mole of NaOH produces one mole of OH⁻ ion, which is what we care about since the pH is affected only by the concentration of H⁺ and OH⁻ ions
Now that we know that one mole of NaOH produces one mole of OH⁻, 0.0003M NaOH will produce 0.0003M OH⁻
Concentration of OH⁻ (also written as [OH⁻]) = 3 * 10⁻⁴
<u>pOH of the solution:</u>
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(3 * 10⁻⁴)
pOH = -0.477 + 4
pOH = 3.523
<u>pH of the solution:</u>
We know that the sum of pH and pOH of a solution is 14
pH + pOH = 14
pH + 3.523 = 14 [subtracting 3.523 from both sides]
pH = 10.477
Answer:
Mass = 153.48 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume of solution = 2.50 L
Molarity = 0.48 M
Mass required = ?
Solution:
Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter
Number of moles = Molarity × volume in litter
Number of moles = 0.48 M × 2.50 L
Number of moles = 1.2 mol
Mass of HI:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Mass = Number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.2 mol × 127.9 g/mol
Mass = 153.48 g
