Answer:
0.4 M
Explanation:
The process that takes place in an aqueous K₂HPO₄ solution is:
- K₂HPO₄ → 2K⁺ + HPO₄⁻²
First we <u>calculate how many K₂HPO₄ moles are there in 200 mL of a 0.2 M solution</u>:
- 200 mL * 0.2 M = 40 mmol K₂HPO₄
Then we <u>convert K₂HPO₄ moles into K⁺ moles</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em> of the reaction above:
- 40 mmol K₂HPO₄ *
= 80 mmol K⁺
Finally we <em>divide the number of K⁺ moles by the volume</em>, to <u>calculate the molarity</u>:
- 80 mmol K⁺ / 200 mL = 0.4 M
Answer: He could add a base to the pool to neutralize the acid.
Explanation:
Chlorine is used to disinfect the pools as it produces hypochlorous acid in water. This hypochlorous acid is unstable and gives hydrochloric acid and nascent oxygen which is used to disinfect.
The excess acid is neutralized by adding base which produces salt and water and thus decrease the acidity.
Adding more acid would increase the acidity further.
