[H₃O⁺] = 1.81.10⁻¹⁰

pH of the solution = 9,742, is a basic solution

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.

pH = - log [H⁺]

So that the two quantities between pH and [H⁺] are inversely proportional because they are associated with negative values.

A solution whose value is different by n has a difference in the concentration of H ions of 10ⁿ.

The concentration of hydronium ions determines a solution's pH.

H₂O ionization reaction

2 H₂O ⇌ OH− + H₃O⁺

The water equilibrium constant (Kw) is the product of concentration

the ions:

Kw = [H₃O +] [OH-]

Kw value at 25° C = 10⁻⁴

It is known [OH-] = 5.5 × 10⁻⁵

then the concentration of H₃O⁺:

10⁻¹⁴ = [H₃O⁺]. 5.5 × 10⁻⁵

 [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴: 5.5 × 10⁻⁵

 [H₃O⁺]= 1.81.10⁻¹⁰

pH - -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = - log 1.81.10⁻¹⁰

pH = 9,742

Because the pH > 7, the solution is said to be a basic solution

We have been given the OH⁻ ion concentration, we can calculate the pOH concentration. 
pOH = -log [OH⁻]
pOH = - log (5.5 x 10⁻⁵ M)
pOH = 4.26
we can then calculate the pH value 
pH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - 4.26 
pH = 9.74
since pH > 7 the solution is basic.

by knowing the pH value, we can calculate the H₃O⁺ concentration
pH = - log[H₃O⁺]
[H₃O⁺] = antilog (-pH) = antilog (-9.74)
[H₃O⁺] = 1.82 x 10⁻¹⁰ M

PLEASE HELP! Find out whether the chemical equation is balanced or unbalanced.
nordsb [41]

One chemical reaction is called the Haber process, a method for preparing ammonia by reacting nitrogen gas with hydrogen gas:


This equation shows you what happens in the reaction, but it doesn’t show you how much of each element you need to produce the ammonia. To find out how much of each element you need, you have to balance the equation — make sure that the number of atoms on the left side of the equation equals the number of atoms on the right.


You know the reactants and the product for this reaction, and you can’t change them. You can’t change the compounds, and you can’t change the subscripts, because that would change the compounds.


So the only thing you can do to balance the equation is add coefficients, whole numbers in front of the compounds or elements in the equation. Coefficients tell you how many atoms or molecules you have.


For example, if you write the following, it means you have two water molecules:


Each water molecule is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. So with two water molecules (represented above), you have a total of 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.


You can balance equations by using a method called balancing by inspection. You take each atom in turn and balance it by adding appropriate coefficients to one side or the other.


With that in mind, take another look at the equation for preparing ammonia: HOPE THIS HELPS

A scientist is combining two grey elements he thinks he will get a compound why is this prediction wrong
DedPeter [7]
In a compund, the proportion must be fixed, unlike mixture. Therefore, if he just combine two elements, there must be excess elements mixed in it.
Second, how did he combined two elements? In order to create a compund, either heat or electricity must be applied.
Therefore, even if he used heat / electricity, he still hasn't got the right proportion, therefore he must have mixed some excess elements into the compund that he thought he made.

The mineral orpiment, having the empirical formula As2S3, was used in ancient times as a cosmetic. What mass of arsenic is prese
Soloha48 [4]

Answer : The mass of arsenic present in 5.0 g of orpiment is, 1.5 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of orpiment = 5.0 g

As we know that the molar mass of As_2S_3 is, 246.02 g/mol and the molar mass of As is, 75 g/mol.

As per the question, we conclude that:

As, 246.02 g of As_2S_3 contains mass of arsenic = 75 g

So, 5.0 g of As_2S_3 contains mass of arsenic = \frac{5.0}{246.02}\times 75=1.5g

Thus, the mass of arsenic present in 5.0 g of orpiment is, 1.5 grams.
