Calculate the pOH of an aqueous solution of .0.073 M LiOH

Novosadov [1.4K]

Considering the definition of pOH and strong base, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14

The pOH (or potential OH) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a solution and indicates the concentration of ion hydroxide (OH-).

pOH is expressed as the logarithm of the concentration of OH⁻ ions, with the sign changed:

pOH= - log [OH⁻]

On the other hand, a strong base is that base that in an aqueous solution completely dissociates between the cation and OH-.

LiOH is a strong base, so the concentration of the hydroxide will be equal to the concentration of OH-. This is:

[LiOH]= [OH-]= 0.073 M

Replacing in the definition of pOH:

pOH= -log (0.073 M)

In summary, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14

2. In Experiment SOL, you investigated the solubility of oxalic acid. Sodium oxalate, Na2C2O¬4, is the sodium salt of this acid.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Sodium oxalate is a basic salt. In water it can be dissolved and dissociated.

The oxalic acid in water has two dissociations.

Explanation:

Na2C2O4 ---> 2Na+ + C2O4-2

Sodium oxalate is the conjugate base of a weak acid. In water this salt, dissociates completely giving rise to the sodium and oxalate ions. As Na+ comes from a strong base, in water it does not produce hydrolysis while oxalate does react in water, because it takes a proton from it and it generates a basic hydrolysis releasing OH-.

C2O4-2 + H2O ⇄ HC2O4- + OH-

In water the salt is basic. The pH of an aqueous solution of this salt is basic, since OH- is generated.

The HC2O4- has a second hydrolisis, it takes another proton from water to form oxalic acid.

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H2C2O4 + OH-

The oxalic acid acts as a weak acid, it can release 2 protons to water, to make oxalate (its conjugate base).

H2C2O4 + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + HC2O4-

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H3O+ C2O4-2

The HC2O4- acts as an ampholyte since it accepts and delivers protons simultaneously.

What best explains why the box’s final kinetic energy is less than its initial potential energy

ziro4ka [17]

Some potential energy was converted into thermal energy due to friction. The acceleration due to gravity became smaller as the box slid down the ramp.

How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3?

Alina [70]

Answer:

2000pound

Explanation:

Manganese metal is produced from the manganese(III) oxide, Mn2O3, which is found in manganite, a manganese ore. The manganese is reduced from its +3 oxidation state in Mn2O3 to the zero oxidation state of the uncharged metal by reacting the Mn2O3 with a reducing agent such as aluminum or carbon. How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3? (1 ton = 2000 pounds)

About 40 different substances called organophosphorus compounds are registered in the United States as insecticides. They are considered less damaging to the environment than some other insecticides because they breakdown relatively rapidly in the environment. The first of these organophosphorus insecticides to be produced was tetraethyl pyrophosphate, TEPP, which is 33.11% carbon, 6.95% hydrogen, 38.59% oxygen, and 21.35% phosphorus. It has a molecular mass of 290.190.
