What is the significance of wanting to know what the pH of a solution is?

Chemistry

4 0

pH is an important parameter for many reactions to take place in solution and in biological systems. It is related to the concentration of H⁺ ions through the following expression:

pH = 1/[H⁺] = -log [H⁺]

Wanting to know the pH of a solution is equivalent to knowing the amount of hydrogen ions present. But the pH scale is more convenient than the concentration scale because pH usually takes values between 0 and 14.

  • When pH < 7 the solution is acid.
  • When pH = 7 the solution is neutral (like pure water).
  • When pH > 7 the solution is basic.

why is it essential to know the water temperature in this experiment- to find the vapor pressure of the water
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Vapour pressure of a liquid varies with temperature

Explanation:

The vapour pressure of any liquid is directly proportional to the temperature of the liquid. This implies that, as the temperature of the liquid increases, the vapour pressure increases likewise and vice versa.

Since the vapour pressure of liquid varies with the temperature of the liquid, it is essential to know the water temperature in the experiment to determine the vapour pressure of water.

Considering the temperature vs. time graph below, how does the temperature at the beginning of a change of state
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The temperature is always lower.

Explanation:

The temperature is always lower at the end of the state as compared to beginning of the state. We can see in the given data, the temperature is higher at the beginning i. e. 140 degree Celsius but with the passage of time, the temperature of a state decreases constantly  and the temperature at the end is lower i. e. 20 degree Celsius. So we can conclude that the temperature is always lower.
