Explain how acid–base indicators can be used to determine the approximate pH of a substance.

1 answer:

5 0

PH stands for potential hydrogen.
pH can be accurately tested using acid-based indicators since it is a part of the pH of something itself. (acid and bases) The indicators themselves work when the acidic properties of the indicator begins to dissolve and form ions which gives the color indicating the pH.

What is the approximate geometry around each oxygen atom

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

correct option: A. tetrahedral

Explanation:

when we talk about hydrogen bonding in water due to oxygen then need to check the number of lone pair available for hydrogen bonding because hydrogen bond form between lone pair of oxygen and hydrogen of other water molecule so there are two lone pair which forms hydrogen bond and there are also two other covalent bond with hydrogen of same molecule so total number is 4 it means they will form a tetrahedral geometry

In a 0.20 M solution, a weak acid is 3.0% dissociated.(a) Calculate the [H₃O⁺] , pH , [OH⁻], and pOH of the solution.

marin [14]

H₃O⁺ = $6.0$ × $10^{-3}$

OH = $1.7$ × $10^{-12}$

pH = 2.22

pOH = 11.78

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log( $a_{H+}$ )

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.
