Acidic and basic are two extremes that describe chemicals, just like hot and cold are two extremes that describe temperature. Mixing acids and bases can cancel out their extreme effects, much like mixing hot and cold water can even out the water temperature. A substance that is neither acidic nor basic is neutral. 

The character of acidic, basic and neutral is defined by the concentration of hydrogen ions [H+](mol/L). A solution with a concentration of hydrogen ions higher than 10-7mol/L is acidic, and a solution with a lower concentration is alkaline (another way to say basic). Using the formula, pH=-log[H+<span>], a pH of 7 is neutral, a pH less than 7 is acidic, and a pH greater than 7 is basic. As one can see from this formula, ten times a given concentration of hydrogen ions means one unit lower in terms of pH value (higher acidity), and vice versa.

The formula for ph is given by:
<span>pH=−<span>log10</span>[H+]</span>
<span>What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 2?
</span>In calculating for the concentration of hydrogen ion, the formula is given by:
[H+]=(10)^(-pH)

Solution:

[H+]=(10)^(-2)
[H+]=0.01 M

<span>What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 2?
pH+pOH=14
2+pOH=14
pOH=12

</span>[OH-]=(10)^(-pOH)
[OH-]=(10)^(-12)
[OH-]=1.0x10^-12 M

<span>What is the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 2?
The ratio is 0.01:1.0x10^-12 which is equal to 0.000000000001

What happens to the number of valence electrons as you move up a group
Advocard [28]
Ionization Energy: DOWN a Group: Ionization energy DECREASES as you go DOWN a Group because the farther the valence electrons are from the nucleus (pulling power of the protons) the less energy it costs another atom to steal them

Heating curve shows temperature verses energy gain. Which parts of the curve represent a gain in potential energy?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Those two horizontal lines.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when focusing on these heating curves, it is important to say they tend to have two constant-temperature sections and three variable-temperature sections. Thus, from lower to higher temperature, the first constant-temperature section corresponds to melting and the second one vaporization, whereas the three variable-temperature sections correspond to the heating of the solid until melting, the liquid until vaporization and the gas until the critical point.

In such a way, we infer that the boxes referred to constant temperature are referred to a gain in potential energy, that is, the two horizontal lines.

Regards!

What is the solubility of La(IO₃)₃ in a solution that contains 0.100 M IO₃⁻ ions? (Ksp of La(IO₃)₃ is 7.5 × 10⁻¹²)
love history [14]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

[La3+] = 0.1 M

<u>At the equilibrium: </u>

La(IO3)3 <---->     La3+     +         3 IO3-  

                    0.1 +s             3s      

\mathrm{Ksp}=[\mathrm{La} 3+][\mathrm{IO} 3-]^{\wedge} 3

7.5 * 10^{\wedge}-12=(0.1+s) *(3 s)^{\wedge} 3

Since Ksp is small, s can be ignored as compared to the 0.1

The above shown expression thus becomes:

7.5 * 10 \wedge-12=(0.1) *(3 s) \wedge 3

7.5 * 10^{\wedge}-12=0.1 * 27(\mathrm{s})^{\wedge} 3

s=1.406 * 10^{\wedge}-4 \mathrm{M}

<u>Answer: 1.4*10^-4 M </u>
