Why do acids and bases neutralize eachother?

Chemistry
1 answer:
timofeeve [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

When an acid and a base are placed together, they react to neutralize the acid and base properties, producing a salt. The H(+) cation of the acid combines with the OH(-) anion of the base to form water. The compound formed by the cation of the base and the anion of the acid is called a salt.

Which of these substances has the lowest pH? 0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 0.05 M HCl, pOH = 12.7 0.005 M KOH, pOH = 2.3
vagabundo [1.1K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 ; Has the lowest pH

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the question;

pH = -Log [OH]

or pH = 14 - pOH

Therefore;

For 0.5 M HBr

[H+] = 0.5 M

pH = - Log [0.5]

     = 0.30

For;  pOH = 13.5

pH = 14 - pOH

     = 14 -13.5

     = 0.5

For; 0.05 M HCl

pH = - log [H+]

[H+] = 0.05

pH = - Log [0.05]

     = 1.30

For; pOH = 12.7

pH = 14 -pOH

     = 14 -12.7

     = 1.30

For;  0.005 M KOH,

pOH = - log [OH]

[OH-] = 0.005

pOH = - Log 0.005

        = 2.30

pH = 14 - 2.30

     = 11.7

For; pOH = 2.3

   pH = 14 -pOH

         = 14- 2.3

         = 11.7

How many moles are in 2.6 x 10 ^25 atoms of Li?​
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

43 mole

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Li = 2.6× 10²⁵ atoms

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

2.6× 10²⁵ atoms × 1 mole / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.43 × 10² mole

43 mole

What mass of solid sodium formate (of MW 68.01) must be added to 150 mL of 0.42 mol/L formic acid (HCOOH) to make a buffer solu-
Sergio [31]

Answer:

We need 4.28 grams of sodium formate

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

MW of sodium formate = 68.01 g/mol

Volume of 0.42 mol/L formic acid = 150 mL = 0.150 L

pH = 3.74

Ka = 0.00018

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate [base)

3.74 = -log(0.00018) + log [base]/[acid]

0 = log [base]/[acid]

0 = log [base] / 0.42

10^0 = 1 = [base]/0.42 M

[base] = 0.42 M

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles of sodium formate:

Moles sodium formate = molarity * volume

Moles of sodium formate = 0.42 M * 0.150 L = 0.063 moles

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate mass of sodium formate:

Mass sodium formate = moles sodium formate * Molar mass sodium formate

Mass sodium formate = 0.063 mol * 68.01 g/mol

Mass sodium formate = 4.28 grams

We need 4.28 grams of sodium formate
