Answer:

The correct answer is option :10.7

Explanation:

The pOH of the solution is the negative logarithm of hydroxide ions in a solution.

pOH=-\loh[OH^-]

pOH=-\log[4.60\times 10^{-4}M]=3.33

pH+pOh=14

pH=14-pOH=14-3.33=10.67\approx 10.7

The correct answer is option :10.7

Answer:

pH

=

10.66

Explanation:

For pure water at  

25

∘

C

, the concentration of hydronium ions,  

H

3

O

+

, is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions,  

OH

−

.

More specifically, water undergoes a self-ionization reaction that results in the formation of equal concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide anions.

At room temperature, the self-ionization constant of water is equal to

K

=

[

O

[

=

This means that neutral water at this temperature will have

=

As you know, pH and pOH are defined as

pH

(

[

O

)

pOH

=

−

log

(

[

OH

)

and have the following relationship

pH

pOH

=

14

In your case, the concentration of hydroxide ions is bigger than  

10

−

7

M

, which tells you that you're dealing with a basic solution and that you can expect the pH of the water to be higher than  

7

.

A pH equal to  

7

is characteristic of a neutral aqueous solution at room temperature.

So, you can use the given concentration of hydroxide ions to determine the pOH of the solution first

pOH

=

−

log

(

4.62

⋅

10

−

)

=

3.34

This means that the solution's pH will be

pH

=

14

−

pOH

pH

=

14

−

3.34

=

10.66

Indeed, the pH is higher than  

7

, which confirms that you're dealing with a basic solution.

A flask contains 0.83mol of neon gas at a temperature of 35°C. The pressure gauge indicates 0.37atm inside the flask. What is th
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: 5.66 dm3

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of neon gas = ?

Temperature T = 35°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(35°C + 273 = 308K)

Pressure P = 0.37 atm

Number of moles N = 0.83 moles

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.0082 ATM dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

0.37atm x V = 0.83 moles x 0.0082 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 308K

0.37 atm x V = 2.096 atm dm3

V = (2.096 atm dm3 / 0.37atm)

V = 5.66 dm3

Thus, the volume of the neon gas is 5.66 dm3

I'm not sure about part 1, you may need to google it, but part two is 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons. You can find protons and electrons by just looking at the atomic number, and you can find neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass.

A water bath in a physical chemistry lab is 1.85m long, 0.810m wide and 0.740m deep. If it is filled to within 2.57 in from the
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The volume of water in water bath is 1,011 Liters.

Explanation:

Length of the water bath, L = 1.85 m

Width of the water bath, W= 0.810  m

Height of the water bath ,H= 0.740 m

Height of the water in water bath, h= 0.740 m - 2.57 inches

1 m = 39.37 inch

= 0.740 m - \frac{2.57}{39.37} m = 0.6747 m

Volume of the water in bath = L × W × h

=1.85 m\times 0.810 m\times 0.6747 m=1.011 m^3

1 m^3=1000 L

1.011 m^3=1.011\times 1000 L=1,011 L

The volume of water in water bath is 1,011 Liters.
