Answer:
the formula is 164.088 g/mol
Explanation:
<u>Given information:</u>
Concentration of NaF = 0.10 M
Ka of HF = 6.8*10⁻⁴
<u>To determine:</u>
pH of 0.1 M NaF
<u>Explanation:</u>
NaF (aq) ↔ Na+ (aq) + F-(aq)
[Na+] = [F-] = 0.10 M
F- will then react with water in the solution as follows:
F- + H2O ↔ HF + OH-
Kb = [OH-][HF]/[F-]
Kw/Ka = [OH-][HF]/[F-]
At equilibrium: [OH-]=[HF] = x and [F-] = 0.1 - x
10⁻¹⁴/6.8*10⁻⁴ = x²/0.1-x
x = [OH-] = 1.21*10⁻⁶ M
pOH = -log[OH-] = -log[1.21*10⁻⁶] = 5.92
pH = 14 - pOH = 14-5.92 = 8.08
Ans: (b)
pH of 0.10 M NaF is 8.08
and D. to identify minerals
The answer is… Ions are highly charged species that can readily conduct an electrical current. But hydrogen chloride the gas does not exist as ions since there is no solvent medium for them to dissolve into. Hope this helps!
