Answer:

The pH of the nitric acid solution is 3.70.

Explanation:

The pH is negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log[H^+]

Concentration of nitric acid = 2\times 10^{-4} M

HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq)+NO_{3}^{-}(aq)

1 mole of nitric acid gives 1 mole of hydrogen ions.

Then2\times 10^{-4} M of nitric acid will give .

[H^+]=1\times 2\times 10^{-4} M=2\times 10^{-4} M

The pH of the solution :

pH=-\log[2\times 10^{-4} M]=3.70

Hello!

datos:

Molarity = 2.0*10^{-4}\:M\:(mol/L)


ps: The ionization constant of the nitric acid is strong (100% ionized in water) or completely dissociates in water, so the pH will be:

pH = - log\:[H_3O^+]

pH = - log\:[2*10^{-4}]

pH = 4 - log\:2

pH = 4 - 0.30

\boxed{\boxed{pH = 3.70}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Note:. The pH <7, then we have an acidic solution.

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR!

When the molecules of a gas hit each other do they normally stick or bounce off
Dahasolnce [82]
Since the molecules of a gas are constantly in motion, moving and hitting other gas molecules in all directions of the enclosed container, the molecules transfer a portion of energy through the interaction of other gas particles as they hit, but then bounce off.
