A solution with pH of 9 has [OH-] concentration of
Drupady [299]
PH = -log([H+])
[H+] = 10^(-pH)

[H+] = 10^(-9)

[H+][OH-] = Kw
Kw = 1.0*10^-14 at 25 degrees celsius.

[OH-] = Kw/[H+] = (1.0*10^-14)/(1*10^-9) = 1.0*10^-5

The concentration of OH- ions is 1.0*10^-5 M.

how did the boiling point of plain water compare to that of water with salt? Compared to water with sugar?
elixir [45]

The boiling point of plain water is less than the boiling point of both salt and sugar water.

<h3>What is boiling point?</h3>

Boiling point can be defined as the point when the pressure exerted by the surroundings upon a liquid is equal to the pressure exerted by the vapour of the liquid.

The boiling point of plain water is 100°C which increases upon addition of solute substances such as salt and sugar.

But salts are usually made up of ionic bonds while sugar are made up of covalent bonds. This means that more energy would be required to boil salt solution due to its ionic bonds.

Therefore, the boiling point of salt water is highest following sugar water before plain water which is the lowest.
