<u>Given:</u>

Concentration of NaClO = 0.037 M

ka (HClO) = 4.0*10⁻⁸

<u>To determine:</u>

The pH of the NaClO solution

<u>Explanation:</u>

The hydrolysis of the weak base can be represented by the ICE table shown below-

                ClO-      +     H2O    ↔    HClO    +       OH-

Initial        0.037M                              0                    0

Change         -x                                 +x                  +x

Equilibrium  (0.037-x)                        x                     x

kb  = kw/ka =  [HClO][OH-]/[ClO-]

10⁻¹⁴/4*10⁻⁸ = x²/(0.037-x)

x = [OH-] = 9.62*10⁻⁵

p[OH-] = -log[OH-] = -log [9.62*10⁻⁵] = 4.02

pH = 14-p[OH-] = 14 - 4.02 = 9.98

Ans: pH of the solution is 9.98

2 Na + Cl2 --&gt; 2 NaCl<br> What is the mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride?
Irina18 [472]

Answer: The mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride 2:2.

Explanation:

As the given reaction equation is as follows.

2Na + Cl_{2} \rightarrow 2NaCl

Here, 2 moles of sodium reacts with 1 mole of Cl_{2} and leads to the formation of 2 moles of NaCl.

This means that 2 moles of sodium gives 2 moles of NaCl on reaction with chlorine.

Hence, the ratio of moles of sodium to sodium chloride is 2:2.

Thus, we can conclude that the mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride 2:2.

I'm very confused on Solubility and Temperature. Please Help!
lukranit [14]
When a solid is added to a liquid, there exists a possibility that it will get dissolved in the solid. However, this depends on a lot of factors, like the temperature of the substances, the volume of the liquid, and the amount and nature of the solid to be dissolved.
