Answer:

a.

pH =  0.602

b.

pH = 1.5

c.

pH = 7

d.

pH = 12.1

Explanation:

a ) To calculate the pH, use the following equation:

pH = -log [H+]

Hbr is a strong acid, so the [H+] concentration can be calculated as follow:

[HBr] = 0.250 M

As acid Hbr:

Hbr = H+ + Br-

As strong acid HBr dissociates at all, so

[HBr] = [H+] = 0.250 M

So the pH:

<u>pH = -log [0.250 M] = 0.602</u>

<u></u>

<u>b) Calculate the pH after adding 250 mL of 0.125M NaOH</u>

<u></u>

<u>I</u>n this point, the reactions starts:

<u></u>

HBr + NaOH = H2O + NaBr

- First, we gonna find the mol of each reactant:

HBr:

mol = [M] × L

mol = 0.250 M × 0.250 L

mol = 0.0625 mol HBr

NaOH:

mol = [M] × L

mol = 0.125 M × 0.250L

mol = 0.03125 mol NaOH

In base on the reaction, it’s needed 1 mol of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of HBr, so to neutralize 0.0625 moles of HBr its needed 0.0625 mol of NaOH:

0.0625 mol HBr – 0.03125 mol HBr = 0.03125 mol HBr

These are the moles free in the solution, and we going to use them to calculate the pH:

pH = -log [ H]

pH = - log [ 0.03125 ] = 1.5

<u>c) Calculate the pH after adding 500 mL of 0.125M NaOH</u>

NaOH:

mol = [M] × L

mol = 0.125 M × 0.500L

mol = 0.0625 mol NaOH

In base on the reaction, it’s needed 1 mol of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of HBr, so to neutralize 0.0625 moles of HBr its needed 0.0625 mol of NaOH:

0.0625 mol HBr – 0.0625 mol HBr = 0 HBr

pH = 7

<u>d) Calculate the pH after adding 600 mL of 0.125M NaOH.</u>

<u>NaOH:</u>

mol = [M] × L

mol = 0.125 M × 0.600L

mol = 0.075 mol NaOH

In base on the reaction, it’s needed 1 mol of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of HBr, so to neutralize 0.0625 moles of HBr its needed 0.0625 mol of NaOH:

0.075 mol NaOH – 0.0625 mol NaOH = 00125 NaOH

These are the moles free in the solution, and we going to use them to calculate the pH:

pOH = -log [ OH]

pOH = - log [ 0.0125 ] = 1.90

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14- pOH = 14 – 1.90 = 12.1

The atomic mass of potassium is 39.1. What is the mass of 6.02 × 1023 atoms of potassium? . . A.. 39.1 mg. . . . . B.. 39.1 g. .
Sholpan [36]
Atomic mass of Potassium = Mass of 1 atom of Potassium = 39.1 amu
Then
Mass of 6.02 x 1023 atoms of potassium = 39.1 x 6.02 x 1023 amu
                                                                  = 
We already know that
1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 atoms
Also
Number of mole = mass in grams/ atomic mass
Then
Mass in gram = Number of mole x atomic mass
                       = (39.1 x 6.02 x 1023)/(6.02 x 1023)
                       = 39.1 g
The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the third option or option "B".
