Describe an acid or base in terms of its relationship to protons

1 answer:

4 0

Acids are donors of protons (H+) and bases are acceptors of protons.
For example:
1) hydrochloric acid (HCl) in reaction with water give one proton to water and become chloride anion (Cl-).
2) ammonia (NH3) Is base, in reaction with water accepts one protone and become ammonium cation (NH4+).

What is the molarity of a strong acid solution with a pH of 3?

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Since HCl is a strong acid, it completely ionizes, and the pH of HCl in solution can be found from the concentration (molarity) of the H+ ions, by definition equal to 0.100 M. (The conjugate base of the acid, which is the chloride ion Cl–, would also have a concentration of 0.100 M.) The pH is thus –log(0.100) = 1.000.

0.785 moles of N2,fill a balloon at 1.5 atm and 301 K. What is the volume of the balloon?

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

V = 12.93 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 0.785 mol

Pressure of balloon = 1.5 atm

Temperature = 301 K

Volume of balloon = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will put the values.

V = nRT/P

V = 0.785 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K × 301 K / 1.5 atm

V = 19.4 L /1.5

V = 12.93 L
