<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

sample of substance X has a mass of 326.0 g releases 4325.8 cal when it freezes at its freezing point. If substance X has a mola
ELEN [110]
Number of moles ( substance x ):

1 mole --------- 58.45 g/mol
? mole --------- 326.0 g

326.0 x 1 / 58.45 => 5.577 moles

 heat of fusion:

hf = Cal / moles

hf = 4325.8 Cal / 5.577 moles

hf = 775.65 cal/mol

hope this helps!
