In a given solution, the concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions are related to each other by the following expression:

pH + pOH = 14

where, pH = - log[H+] and pOH = - log [OH-]

In this case, the concentration of sulfuric acid is given as 2.1 x 10^-4 M. Since each molecule of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) contains 2 atoms of hydrogen, the concentration of hydrogen ions in this solution is twice that of sulfuric acid. That is,

Concentration of H+ ions = 2 x 2.1 x 10^-4

= 4.2 x 10^-4 M

This means, pH = -log (4.2 x 10^-4) = 3.38

Since pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 3.38 = 10.62

This means, 10.62 = -log [OH-]

Solving the equation, we get [OH-] = 2.4 x 10^-11 M.

Hope this helps.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in Potassium, Nitrogen, and oxygen?
pickupchik [31]
<span>The amount of protons is equal to the number of electrons of a chemical element. The atomic number of an element also determines the number of the protons it contains. The number of protons is also the same number of electrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged. To get the number of neutrons, all you need is to deduct the number of  the atomic mass or mass number from the atomic number. Potassium has 19 protons, therefore has 19 electrons as well. The atomic mass of Potassium is 39. So, the number of neutrons Potassium has is 20. </span> Potassium Atomic number: 19 Protons: 19 Electrons: 19 Atomic Mass: 39 Neutron: 20 Nitrogen Atomic number: 7 Protons: 7 Electrons: 7 Atomic Mass: 14.007 Neutrons: 7 Oxygen Atomic Number: 8 Protons: 8 Electrons: 8 Atomic Mass: 15.99 Neutrons: 8

The two gases, H2 and O2, were allowed to effuse under the same conditions through a pinhole. If the rate of effusion of O2 was
TEA [102]

The rate of effusion of H₂ : 7.2 x 10⁻² m/s

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Graham's law: the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar masses or  

the effusion rates of two gases = the square root of the inverse of their molar masses:  

\rm \dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{M_2}{M_1} }

or  

\rm M_1\times r_1^2=M_2\times r_2^2

MW₁ O₂ = 32 g/mol

MW₂ H₂ = 2 g/mol

\tt \dfrac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{r_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{32} }\\\\\dfrac{(1.8\times 10^{-2})^2}{r_2^2}=\dfrac{2}{32}\\\\r_2=0.072=7.2\times 10^{-2}~m/s

A solution of HCl has mc012-1.jpg = 0.01 M. What is the pH of this solution? Use mc012-2.jpg.
ololo11 [35]
 The PH of the solution  of HCl  is  calculated as below

Ph= - log H^+
calculate the hydrogen ion  concentration

 by  first write the ionic equation for  dissociation of HCl

HCl  = H^+  + Cl^- 


since  the mole ratio between HCl  to H^+  is 1:1   the  concentration of H^+  =0.01 M

Ph   is therefore  =  - log 0.01 =  2

HCl has a PH of 2
