Given pH = 8.55 Find: [H3O+] and [OH-] Is this acidic, basic or neutral?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The given pH = 8.55

Unknown:

[H₃O⁺] = ?

[OH⁻] = ?

In order to find these unknowns we must first establish some relationship.

                      pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                   8.55 = -log[H₃O⁺]

                    [H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀(-8.55) = 2.82 x 10⁻⁹moldm⁻³

To find the [OH⁻],

                     pH + pOH = 14

                               pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 8.55

                                pOH = 5.45

              pOH = -log[OH⁻]

               [OH⁻] = inverse log₁₀ (-5.45) = 3.55 x 10⁻⁶moldm⁻³

The solution is basic because it has more concentration of OH⁻ ions compared to H⁺ ions.

You have a saturated solution of BaSO4, a slightly soluble ionic compound. What happens if you add Ba(OH)2, NaNO3, and CuSO4 to
igomit [66]

Answer:

- Addition of Ba(OH)2: favors the formation of a precipitate.

- Undergo a chemical reaction forming soluble species.

- Addition of CuSO4 : favors the formation of a precipitate.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the dissociation reaction of barium sulfate is:

BaSO_4(s)\rightleftharpoons Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)

We must analyze the effect of the common ion:

- By adding barium hydroxide, more barium ions will be added to the equilibrium system so the formation of solid barium sulfate will be favored (reaction shifts leftwards towards reactants).

- By adding sodium nitrate, the following reaction will undergo:

BaSO_4(s)+NaNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)+Na_2SO_4(aq)

So the precipitate will turn into other soluble species.

- By adding copper (II) sulfate, more sulfate ions will be added to the equilibrium system so the formation of solid barium sulfate will be favored (reaction shifts leftwards towards reactants).

All of this is supported by the Le Chatelier's principle.

Best regards.

the chloride of a metal M contains 47.25% of metal 1.0 gram of metal would be displaced from a compound by 0.88 gram of another
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The equivalent weight of M is approximately 31.8 g

The equivalent weight of N is approximately 27.98 g

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The percentage of the the metal M in in the chloride = 47.25%

Where by the chemical formula for the metal chloride is MClₓ, we have;

47.25% of the mass of MClₓ = Mass of M = W

Therefore, we have;

\dfrac{0.4725}{W} = \dfrac{1}{W + 35.5 \cdot x}

0.4725 × (W +  35.5·x) = W

0.4725·W + 0.4725×35.5×x = W

W - 0.4725·W  = 16.77·x

0.5275·W = 16.77·x

W/x = 16.77/0.5275 = 31.799 = The equivalent weight of M

The equivalent weight of M = 31.799 ≈ 31.8 g

Given that 1 gram of M is displaced by 0.88 gram of N, then the equivalent weight of N that will displace 31.799 = 0.88 × 31.799 ≈ 27.98 g

The equivalent weight of N = 27.98 g.

en un recipiente se tiene 800 g de una solución al 35% en masa de ácido sulfuroso, de la cual se evapora 80ml de agua. ¿cuál es
Alinara [238K]

The mass percent of sulfurous acid in the new solution : 38.9%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<em>In a container you have 800 g of a 35% by mass solution of sulfurous acid, from which 80 ml of water evaporates. What is the mass percent of sulfurous acid in the new solution? data: density of water is 1g / ml.</em>

<em />

solution 1

composition :

  • 35% acid :

\tt 0.35\times 800~g=280~g

  • water :

\tt 800-280=520~g

solution 2(new solution)

composition :

  • water

\tt 520-(80~ml\times 1~g/ml)=440~g

  • Total mass of new solution after water evaporated

\tt 280(acid)+440(water)=720~g

  • %mass of acid in a new solution

\tt \dfrac{280}{720}\times 100\%=38.9\%
