In order for 100 grams of Carbon 14 to decay to 25 grams, 2 half lives worth of time would have passed. 

<span>log(100/25) / log(2) = 2 half lives </span>

<span>2 * 5730 years = 11,460 years</span>

Determine the pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO4. Report the answer to two digits past the decimal.
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56

Explanation:

pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity that indicates the amount of hydrogen ions present in a solution or substance and is calculated as:

pH= - log [H⁺]= - log [H₃O⁺]

On the other hand , a Strong Acid is that acid that in an aqueous solution dissociates completely. In other words, a strong acid completely dissociates into hydrogen ions and anions in solution.

HClO₄ is a strong acid, so in aqueous solution it will be  totally dissociated. Then, the concentration of protons is equal to the initial concentration of  acid and the pH will be calculated:

pH= - log 0.00278

pH= 2.56

<u><em>The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56</em></u>
