<em>Calculate the pH of the following substances formed during a volcanic eruption:
</em>
<em>• Acid rain if the [H +] is 1.9 x 10-5
</em>
<em>• Sulfurous acid if [H +] = 0.10
</em>
<em>• Nitric acid if [H +] = 0.11</em>
<em />
<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⁺]
![\tt pH=-log[1.9\times 10^{-5}]\\\\pH=5-log1.9\\\\pH=4.72](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%20pH%3D-log%5B1.9%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D5-log1.9%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D4.72)

Explanation:
Since [Cu(NH3)4]2+ and [Cu(H2O)6]2+ are Octahedral Complexes the transitions between d-levels explain the majority of the absorbances seen in those chemical compounds. The difference in energy between d-levels is known as ΔOh (ligand-field splitting parameter) and it depends on several factors:
- The nature of the ligand: A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered on ligand strength. With a higher strength the ΔOh will be higher and thus it requires a higher energy light to make the transition.
- The oxidation state of the metal: Higher oxidation states will strength the ΔOh because of the higher electrostatic attraction between the metal and the ligand
A partial spectrochemical series listing of ligands from small Δ to large Δ:
I− < Br− < S2− < Cl− < N3− < F−< NCO− < OH− < C2O42− < H2O < CH3CN < NH3 < NO2− < PPh3 < CN− < CO
Then NH3 makes the ΔOh higher and it requires a higher energy light to make the transition, which means a shorter wavelength.
Explanation:
Sodium hydroxide completely ionizes in water to produce sodium ions and hydroxide ions. Hydroxide ions are in excess and neutralize all acetic acid added by the following ionic equation:
The mixture would contain
if 
undergoes no hydrolysis; the solution is of volume 
after the mixing. The two species would thus be of concentration 
and 
, respectively.
Construct a RICE table for the hydrolysis of under a basic aqueous environment (with a negligible hydronium concentration.)
The question supplied the <em>acid</em> dissociation constant 
for acetic acid 
; however, calculating the hydrolysis equilibrium taking place in this basic mixture requires the <em>base</em> dissociation constant 
for its conjugate base, . The following relationship relates the two quantities:
... where the water self-ionization constant

An element is a pure substance that cannot be separated or divided into simpler substances by any method (physical or chemical). The four common elements in all the living organisms are carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen.
Thus, the four elements that make up about 96 % of body matter are carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen (c).
